Armstrong World Industries Adds 3D Revit Models to ProjectWorks Service
Digital feature saves designers and architects time while supporting more accurate specification, enhanced feasibility checks and more dynamic customer presentations
Armstrong World Industries recently expanded the capabilities of its ProjectWorks Design and Pre-Construction Service by making 3D Revit models available to designers, architects and contractors utilizing the complimentary service. By expanding its in-house ProjectWorks proprietary design software to deliver 3D Revit models, Armstrong has answered the call of architects and designers needing to produce detailed renderings, ensured the feasibility of ceiling designs and reduced the “friction” that sometimes occurs when contractors receive incomplete, inaccurate or confusing project details.
The 3D Revit model is a full-scale, dimensionally accurate depiction of an architect’s ceiling design, supported by data-rich product information — including item numbers, descriptions, finishes and perforations — on all elements of the panels, perimeter trim and suspension system. This extensive information and model expand project evaluations to ensure constructability. In addition, the model can be used by architects and designers to generate detailed renderings and animated 3D presentations, supporting a more seamless design process.
