    By the way, what are Geometry Gym Connector plugins?

  • Jon Mirtschin

    Geometry Gym connector plugins are the ones to exchange model data with other software.

     

    Presently there are 3 BIM options (all neutral file formats), IFC (Industry Foundation Class capable of extensive building objects including MEP), CIS/2 (CimSteel Integrated Standard for Structural Steel) and SNDF (Steel Detailing Neutral Format).   I am considering a direct link to software such as Revit.  The others are all for Structural Analysis Software (as I trained/worked as a structural engineer).
