CYPEURBAN

Computable built areas

CYPEURBAN version 2023.g includes new tools regarding computable built areas:

  • New check for computable built areas according to use
    Check the maximum built area, computable in square metres, according to the different uses of the building. The tool allows IFCSpace to be imported and mapped to the different uses of the building.

  • Computable built area table
    The table shows all the computable built areas of the job and allows users to browse through them while they are highlighted in the 3D model. The table allows the surfaces to be sorted according to computation, use or storey.

  • Assign properties of computable built areas
    Allows users to change the properties of the computable built areas: computation and use.

Clip volume

As of version 2022.b, applications with 3D drawing surroundings allow a viewing volume to be defined from the geometric envelope of the scene content. The arrows allow the viewing volume to be adjusted by moving their faces and the arches allow the viewing volume to be adjusted by means of 6 clips planes.

General improvements

Version 2021.g of CYPE’s programs is a closing version of the 2021 version.

As well as the new features and improvements expressly indicated in each version of CYPE software, process optimisation involving internal updates for all our programs is normally included. In each revision, all programs are systematically checked and changes are made to improve their performance, therefore, we recommend that our users (in this case those of v.2021) always update their version to the latest one, regardless of the country for which they are using CYPE software or the language in which it is installed.

64-bit Version

As of the 2019.f version, CYPE programs (those downloaded from our website and those downloaded from the BIMserver.center platform) are compiled for 64-bit systems. The 64-bit compilation of CYPE software implies the use of the superior features of 64-bit processors and operating systems compared to those of 32 bits.

Please bear in mind that you must have a 64-bit operating system to be able to work with any 64-bit software.

In any case and as a temporary measure, the 2019.f version is available in 64 and 32 bits on the download area of our webpage. The programs that can be downloaded from the BIMserver.center platform are only available in 64 bits. If you have a 64-bit operating system, you can work with either the 64-bit and 32-bit version of our software, although we strongly recommend that you install the 64-bit CYPE software version.

You can see which operating system is installed on your computer by clicking on "Control panel > System".

Since 64-bit microprocessors began to be massively introduced into personal computers from 2003 and from the Windows XP version, Microsoft already offers the two versions of its operating systems (32 and 64 bits). We understand that almost all our users will have computers with 64-bit processors (x64) and 64-bit operating systems.

It could occur that a user may wish to work with a computer with a 64-bit processor but with a 32-bit operating system. It would be very strange if the computer had a 32-bit processor (x86 - computers over 15 years old). If any of these is your case, we advise you to talk to your hardware or software provider to update your situation as soon as possible. However, you can download the 32-bit version and work with CYPE programs that can be downloaded from our website until your situation is up-to-date.

New programs that can be downloaded from BIMserver.center

CYPEURBAN and CYPELEC Networks (new programs with the 2018.a version) and StruBIM programs (from previous versions) are not installed with the complete CYPE program packet. These programs must be downloaded via the BIMserver.center web platform.

Furthermore, to be able to use either application, users must register in the BIMserver.center web platform. Once the program has been downloaded and installed, as well as the “BIMserver.center” synchroniser, new projects created by users should have an associated project lodged in the platform, hence allowing for the collaborative Open BIM workflow to take place.
