Autodesk Introduces BIM 360 Cloud Services

By DE Editors

Autodesk has released Autodesk BIM 360, which includes cloud services to provide anywhere access to BIM project information throughout the project lifecycle.

The service offering will work with BIM solutions for design,  construction and operations, including the Autodesk Building Design Suite and Autodesk Infrastructure Design Suite.

“Cloud-connected workflows are giving our customers worldwide a better way to work with colleagues across their organizations and with business partners, clients and stakeholders, said Amar Hanspal,  Autodesk senior vice president, information modeling products. “Autodesk BIM 360 will revolutionize the way building and infrastructure owners, designers, engineers and contractors create,  share and use project information.”

The solution includes cloud-based services for multidiscipline collaboration that support model coordination and intelligent object data exchange.

According to the company, Autodesk BIM 360 can also help improve project outcomes by moving computational intensive tasks to the cloud,  allowing rapid visualization with rendering services and the ability to simulate early and often with energy and structural analysis services. It will also help support the project handover and lifecycle by providing intelligent information to building and infrastructure owners for operations and maintenance.

Autodesk BIM 360 is now available in English, and will be available in the near future in other languages.
