Upgraded Asta Powerproject BIM Enables 5-D Digital Construction Planning

The latest version of Elecosoft’s Asta Powerproject BIM brings improvements in 4-D planning to help customers improve efficiency. This third iteration of the BIM product also boasts enriched cost estimation capabilities—working more closely with cost estimation systems to enable contractors to build a 5-D integrated project view.

Asta Powerproject BIM enables users to drag and drop objects into the 3-D view, as well as split 3-D elements related to new sub-tasks, to meet changing demands on individual construction projects. It also allows for quick comparisons with planned and actual schedule plans, detailing the complete visual impact in 3-D. Among the many new features added, this release will allow users to:

  • Join and overlay IFC models enabling users to work on multiple related models concurrently
  • Display and compare alternative IFC model views in the new IFC Comparison Model pane
  • Create videos of timeline simulations and fly pasts for sharing with non Asta Powerproject BIM users
  • Support the use of larger IFC data models for multiple concurrent project plans using a native 64-bit application
