Abstract:

„i-BID Archive“ stands for Interactive Building Information Documents Archive. It is a software application based on PDF technology that automatically generates an interactive archive from the data of a 3D structural model. Within the archive all information pertaining to a construction can be stored together in form of electronically linked PDF documents. This eliminates the annoying walk to the archive, because all the data will be available at a mouse click. “i-BID Archive” can easily import any changes to the structural model into the PDF drawings and PDF calculation documents. In this way, the high quality archive can be updated with very little effort during the life cycle of the construction. Hence, “i-BID Archive” is interesting for builders and planning engineers when planning and maintaining complex structures.
