Reports are automatically generated and updated from the BIM model. Import existing 2D drawings and 3D models from other CAD systems and export your plans and models for collaboration. Read more how IFC collaboration eliminates mistakes on-site.

View, manage and share Vertex models online with Vertex Showroom. Export framing data directly to roll-forming machines and saws to save time and minimize errors in production. Vertex BD can export framing data to over 25 different machines. See Supported Equipment. Watch how Vertex BD generates framing, panel fabrication drawings, cutting lists and material reports automatically from the BIM model.

Create accurate As-Built models and drawings. Ensure everything fits before you start producing. Manage changes and update documents automatically. Vertex simplifies the way engineers work with everyone. Vertex is fast to implement without external support, IT administration, or training.

Always stay synced with the latest design intent through automatic model version updates. Our cloud-based platform does the heavy lifting of rendering models and it streams images rather than caching data locally. Access your models and conversations on any device. Vertex provides native enterprise-grade security features, including single sign-on, collaboration rules, and complete audit logs.

Rather than sending actual data to a local client, our patent-pending visualization engine streams images to user devices. Reduce the BOM to truly eliminate any sensitive or proprietary information you want locked down. Remove the ability to export geometry, cross section, and measure. Revoke access to the model or Story completely at any time. Framing Features. Automatic framing generator. Includes 3D modeling, drafting features, tools for creating wall, floor, ceiling, and roof framing, truss layouts, material reports, as well as producing drawings.

Export framing data directly to manufacturing equipment to save time and minimize errors in production. Engineering is based on real situations and any truss shape can be used.
