BIM ready portfolio
22 September 2015
Fall protection specialist Latchways has added WalkSafe and VersiRail to its portfolio of roofing products that are now ‘BIM ready’.

According to the company it is the first and only to be listed on the NBS National BIM Library in the ‘Work at Height’ category to date. As of end of April 2015, architects, specifiers and contractors have had full access to easily downloadable families of BIM components compatible with Revit software, through The NBS National BIM Library and Latchways.com.
As a collaborative working process for the creation and life of a building, BIM (Building Information Modelling) is revolutionising the UK construction industry. Latchways has long since recognised the value and benefits BIM capabilities will bring to its customers and has been working to develop its roofing portfolio for the past 12 months - enabling the industry to begin using this process nearly a year ahead of the government deadline of 2016.
