Wood Framing SIPS for Revit is a modular software for LOD 400 modeling that makes wood framing with structural insulated panels (SIPs) – prefabricated building components for use as walls, floors and roofs – fast and easy with real-time, full-project updates in Revit. Plus the software generates views with automatic dimensions for panels or segments as well as accurate bills of materials and shop drawings. So quality production and accurate assembly on site are ensured.

For a roof of any architectural shape, the software instantly splits a selected side or the entire roof by faces (slopes). Likewise, an entire floor can be split according to its supporting structure.

Connectors, cuts, supports and other details can be distributed based on predefined rules or connection types and can then be modified or updated to suit the project design stage and the level of detail required. The insulated foam core between rigid board sheathing (of which SIPs are composed) are created as parts in Revit.

All frames with SIP parts and the layout of frame elements and details can be modified and updated whenever the project is changed. Dynamic update functionality can make changes to all frames with SIPs of the same type at once.

Wall, floor and roof frame elements in the project can easily be marked based on their properties and locations in the layer. And information for fabrication can be automatically generated with all desired views, schedules and drawings for each wall, floor and roof panel.

Structural Insulated Panels (also known as SIPs) are sandwich panels used for residential and light commercial buildings. They have insulating layer of rigid foam core (usually EPS or XPS) flanked with structural board (usually OSB panels or plywood but it can also be sheet metal or cement board).

Modules

Wood Framing SIPS contains several modules:

Wall+

Wall Framing. Automates wood framing work with walls in Revit projects.
Smart Walls

Wall & Join Management. A powerful add-on for managing walls in Revit, letting you rapidly disassemble layers into different wall types, fully control joins and gap distances, split walls into separate panels with predefined settings, insert gravity points, and manage information with an export-to-Excel feature.
Floor+

Floor Framing. Automates wood framing work with floors in Revit projects.
Floor Panel Layout

Prefabricated Floor Paneling. Takes the architect’s designed floor and automates panel layout planning.
Truss+

Truss Framing. Gives Revit users a single robust platform to generate wood truss systems instantly, perform structural analysis, and auto-generate shop drawings tailored to your standards.
Roof Panel Layout

Prefabricated Roof Paneling. Enables easy roof panel planning and splitting into segments for prefabrication which can then be used in the roof framing process.
Roof+

Roof Panel Framing. A powerful solution for prefabricated roof panels in Revit.
Cut Opening

Precision Openings for MEP Services and Building Structures. Creates openings with fire safety components throughout a Revit model where ducts, pipes, cable trays and conduits intersect with walls, floors, roofs, ceilings, beams and columns.
Sort Mark

Flexible element and grid renumbering. Renumber Revit elements just the way you want, detect and renumber grids, determine swing direction and orientation (and add them as properties), recalculate shared coordinates, and much more.
Smart Connections (formerly Smart Details)

Automated LOD 400 modeling in Revit. Insert grout tubes, cast-in plates, anchor bolts, lifting bolts, and cuts on any surface of beams and walls.
Smart Views

Create views and dimensions for selected elements quickly, using configurations instead of manual work.
