Trelligence Affinity - Check it out!!

Trelligence Affinity software is an extension of BIM that adds the Program Model into the architectural business process of planning, designing and constructing a building. Affinity focuses on architectural programming and schematic design giving the entire AECO (Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Owner/Developer) team a platform for communicating the requirements for a building project. Affinity fast forwards the BIM model into the pre-design phase delivering time and cost savings and more successful and cost-effective project outcomes.

Once the project program is captured, Affinity allows you to try out any number of building layout scenarios using intelligent, 3D building blocks such as spaces and openings. As you create conceptual floor plans and stacking diagrams, Affinity analyzes each element and tracks whether the initial design is in compliance with the requirements in the program.

Once the team selects a plan, you can bring the schematic into your favorite CAD or BIM tools to develop the detailed designs and construction documents. Affinity includes bi-directional integration with SketchUp, enabling manipulation of the building envelope as well as building exterior rendering. Bi-directional integration in the Affinity for ArchiCAD and Affinity for Revit plug-ins allows you to continue to track the detailed design against the initial requirements. You can even update the requirements in ArchiCAD or Revit using the features of Affinity.
