A. O. Smith Water Products Co. is the first in the water heater industry to offer specifying engineers and architects complete access to 3-D BIM of its commercial water heater and boiler products with Autodesk Revit software. By visiting the company's website, specifying engineers can download the 3-D Revit models to be inserted into their building model or drawings.
Each Revit product family file allows the selection of the individual model and its associated database of critical installation information. Now, specifying engineers can easily integrate an A. O. Smith product into their building designs. Future plans include making the A. O. Smith files available from the Autodesk "Seek Site" where product models can be directly accessed from within the Revit program.
Revit models are currently available for the Cyclone Xi (BTH), VF Boiler (VW / VB), Master-Fit (BTR), and the Gold Series (DRE) product families. Engineers simply open the file on the website, and then choose the model they want to specify.
