Workflows supported by the program

As CYPEFIRE Hydraulic Systems is an Open BIM tool that is connected to the BIMserver.center platform, CYPEFIRE Hydraulic Systems offers different workflow options.

Data entry

Free definition

  • Defining the elements in the model and their characteristics by means of free entry in CYPEHVAC.
  • System design in CYPEHVAC based on DXF-DWG, DWF templates or images (.jpeg, .jpg, .bmp, .wmf).

Importing BIM models

If the CYPEHVAC job is linked to a BIM project from the BIMserver.center platform, the following tasks can be carried out:

  • Importing the model with the geometry of a building. This generates the floor plan of the building and imports the layout of the spaces (the thermal loads can be estimated directly or associated with the thermal load values calculated in stand-alone programs) and allows users to enter the system elements based on the building geometry. The following options are available:
    • Importing models designed in CYPE Architecture.
    • Importing models designed in IFC Builder
    • Importing models in IFC format with IFC Uploader (generated by CAD/BIM programs such as Allplan, ArchiCAD and others).
    • Importing models designed in Autodesk Revit with the Open BIM - Revit Plugin.
  • Importing sprinkler installation requirements for spaces from the analysis results of the programs that define and validate fire protection systems:
    • Importing sprinkler installation requirements in spaces from models that have been analysed in CYPEFIRE.

Data output

  • Exporting reports to HTML, DOCX, PDF, RTF and TXT formats.
  • Exporting drawings to DXF, DWG and PDF formats.
  • Exporting the bill of quantities to FIEBDC-3 format.
  • Exporting the information generated with CYPEFIRE Hydraulic Systems to the BIMserver.center platform using IFC formats. This allows it to be viewed by authorised project participants.
    • CYPEFIRE FDS
      Imports the layout of the CYPEFIRE Hydraulic Systems sprinklers.
