Panel Packer for Revit is an add-on for logistics planning that allows you to efficiently pack pre-assembled wall, floor, and roof panels. Generate wall, floor and roof assemblies, then define how packing should be done. Off-site prefabrication has become the norm for timber or steel framed houses and precast concrete high rises. Panel Packer helps you in sorting, packing and loading prefabricated building components. Better planning of transport and storage of construction materials means lower emissions, less wasted resources, and lower costs.
Panel Packer is a stand-alone addition to Wood/Metal Framing software of the same developer. Using them together you can complete the full design and production cycle – from modeling and framing through to packing – and all in Revit. Panel Packer is used in combination with Sort Mark module that will help you to create parameter values.
Features:
- Stack all project elements, from wall, floor, and roof assemblies to individual structural framing members.
- Organize items by predefined truck load size or in standalone stacks.
- Setup, save, and reuse packing configurations.
- Convenient use of color coding and unique naming ensure accuracy and precision.
- Optimize packing by organizing panels into bundles based on desired parameters and specifications.
- Freely define stacking location in relation to building site.
- Create drawings for packed panels indicating parameters, size, and location.
- Organize stacks, truck loads, and bundles by project phase and construction sequence.
Typical workflow:
- Sort structural framing members and assemblies. You can do that using Sort Mark.
- Designate design phase. Create and set phase in which your stacks or packs of panels will be loaded.
- Calculate assembly dimensions and framing element mass using Create Assembly options. The information will be written into specific size and weight parameters (Assembly Height, Assembly Length, Assembly Height, Assembly Area, Assembly Volume, Assembly Width, Framing Member Mass) for each of the structural framing assembly.
- Packing configurations. Create a configuration for specific packing or storing situation. Database of configurations reduces the time needed to configure future projects.
- Packing. Pack all or selected Walls/Floors/Roofs Assemblies.
- Rule-based Filters. Create filters to color code your stacks.
- Create sheets. Create sheets with 2D/3D views and schedules.
