Cold Spring Granite has announced the creation of a vast online library of Building Information Modeling (BIM) families.

In response to the growth of BIM and with more product information becoming readily available in a BIM format, Cold Spring Granite has assembled their products in Revit families. Cold Spring Granite established functional details and parameters in the created models such as sizes, height and slope. This information can be taken directly from the project and incorporated into the production tickets to streamline the manufacturing process.

Cold Spring Granite’s BIM object families are available in Revit 2010 format on the company’s website and currently include family details such as stone wall facings, anchors, thresholds, floors, coping, and sills.

Architects will find both 3D versions for their models and 2D for their drawings. As such, the families offer ease of use for the design process. Additional stone information, such as panel sizes, weight and test data can be found on the Cold Spring Granite website. Currently, Cold Spring Granite has 20 families, with approximately 50 more building product models in the works.
