IBM TRIRIGA Version 10.5.0

Integrating, publishing, and synchronizing BIM information

You use IBM® TRIRIGA® Connector for BIM to link Autodesk Revit model data with TRIRIGA records, synchronize the linked data, and publish graphic representations of Revit floor plans for use in TRIRIGA applications. TRIRIGA users, such as space planners, can view Revit project elements, such as floor plans, in the Graphics sections of the TRIRIGA applications that they use.

  • TRIRIGA Connector for BIM overview
    The IBM TRIRIGA Connector for BIM solution is an add-in building information modeling (BIM) product that you install in an Autodesk Revit application. The add-in product provides bidirectional tools that integrate your Revit project data with the TRIRIGA environment and enhance the standard Revit functions.
  • Installing TRIRIGA Connector for BIM
    The installation process loads IBM TRIRIGA Connector for BIM as an add-in for Autodesk Revit applications and adds the IBM TRIRIGA tab to the Revit ribbon.
  • Configuring TRIRIGA connections
    The connection configurations specify the IBM TRIRIGA servers that you connect to when you log in to TRIRIGA from IBM TRIRIGA Connector for BIM. You specify the URL, the default user name, and the authentication type. You can also specify a proxy URL address and port.
  • Setting up the TRIRIGA and Revit integration
    The information that IBM TRIRIGA Connector for BIM uses to populate TRIRIGA records comes from elements in the Autodesk Revit model. You must configure the relationships between the Revit element parameters and the TRIRIGA element parameters.
  • Populating the TRIRIGA parameters in Revit with Revit model data
    The Populate Parameters tool loads predefined IBM TRIRIGA parameters into the open Autodesk Revit model and populates them with the model values. You specify how to update the TRIRIGA parameters. For example, you might want to populate the IBM.Description parameter with the Revit model parameter data only if the TRIRIGA parameter is blank.
  • Linking Revit model data to TRIRIGA records
    You integrate Autodesk Revit and IBM TRIRIGA by linking model data with new or existing TRIRIGA records. The linking process loads the model data to new TRIRIGA records and synchronizes model data with existing TRIRIGA records.
  • Synchronizing Revit model data and TRIRIGA records
    When you modify linked information, you need to synchronize the information so that it is the same in the TRIRIGA records and in the IBM parameters in the Autodesk Revit model.
  • Publishing Revit floor plans to TRIRIGA
    You use the Publish tool in IBM TRIRIGA Connector for BIM to generate Drawing Exchange Format (DXF) files that TRIRIGA converts to graphic representations of Autodesk Revit floor plans. TRIRIGA uses the graphic files in the Graphics section of TRIRIGA applications.
  • Opening TRIRIGA from Revit models
    After you link Autodesk Revit model data to IBM TRIRIGA, you might want to open TRIRIGA from IBM TRIRIGA Connector for BIM to view the linked data.
