CSC has used the knowledge gained from the success of their bidirectional integration between Fastrak Building Designer - their steel and composite building design software and Autodesk Revit Structure.
In a typical day-to-day design situation two scenarios can now be adopted:-
The RC building can be modeled initially in Revit Structure. The structure including grids, levels, beams, columns and walls can then be exported to CSC's Orion software for detailed RC design. The export from Revit Structure and the import into Orion, results in the model being set up
ready for completion of the foundations, slabs and loads in Orion before automatically analyzing and designing the reinforcement required in the structure.

Alternatively, the RC building can be modeled and designed in Orion. The completed design, including grids, levels, columns, walls, beams and slabs can then be transferred into Revit Structure to create a complete structural model which may then be integrated with Revit Architecture
and Revit MEP and produce detailed general arrangement drawings.

"This latest development reinforces CSC's ongoing commitment to meet with customers requirements as they adopt and implement BIM", states CSC’s CEO Mark Roberts
