The program enables the object-oriented creation of drawings of internal gas systems on the architectural plans of a building and the generation of calculation diagrams and the automatic extension of a system. The object library can be used to design a gas system. Objects can be edited and assigned technical parameters.
The ArCADia-GAS INSTALLATIONS module performs the calculations necessary for verification of the correct design of a system (verification of correct diameters, pressure drop range upstream gas appliances) and the creation of a professional technical report.
The program is intended both for gas network and system designers and all people associated with the plumbing and installation sectors in the civil engineering. ArCADia-GAS INSTALLATIONS is part of the ArCADia BIM system that consists of cooperating industry modules.

CEILINGS
Automatic insertion of floors (according to a level outline).
ArCADia-TERIVA CEILINGS:
The module is used to prepare drawings for structural systems of Teriva ceilings. Drawings include all the main elements of the system: ceiling beams, transverse beams, hidden beams, trimmers, KZE and KWE ring fittings, KZN and KWN lintel elements, support grids and additionally all necessary lists of materials covering listed elements, supplemented with the reinforced steel and monolithic concrete required to create a ceiling.
