Technology Platform and Software
LACCD accepts true 3D
solid modeling, object oriented software applications that comply with current
industry interoperability standards and are able to be used in a collaborative
environment. The models and analyses shall be used in support of the decision
making process for high performance building design.
All software platforms
used for LACCD projects MUST be compliant with:
·
Most current version of Industry Foundation Classes
(IFC) file format
·
Commercially available collaboration software
that provides interoperability between the different software applications
(e.g. NavisWorks or equal)
