BIM Workbench/it

Introduzione
L'ambiente BIM è un ambiente aggiuntivo finalizzato all'implementazione completa degli strumenti Building Information Modeling (BIM) e del flusso di lavoro in FreeCAD. Attualmente assomiglia molto all'ambiente interno Arch. L'idea generale, tuttavia, è quella di lavorare come "meta workbench" e raccogliere in un unico luogo strumenti diversi di altri ambienti di lavoro utili per BIM e creare un flusso di lavoro che sia più conveniente, e sia facile da usare sia per gli utenti esperti di BIM provenienti da altri software come Revit o ArchiCAD che per i nuovi arrivati. Il workbench BIM presenta anche un paio di strumenti, che sono per lo più procedure guidate e strumenti di gestione, che si trovano sotto il menu Gestione.

Installazione
Il workbench BIM non è in bundle con il pacchetto FreeCAD predefinito, ma può essere facilmente installato tramite il menu Strumenti -> Addons Manager. Il codice del workbench BIM è ospitato e sviluppato su github e può anche essere installato manualmente copiandolo nella directory MOD di FreeCAD. Il workbench BIM è un work in progress e cambierà spesso. Accertarsi di aggiornarlo regolarmente!

Per iniziare
Al primo avvio di BIM viene visualizzata una finestra di benvenuto, che fornisce una rapida panoramica di come funziona questo ambiente e consente all'utente di avviare il tutorial in-game. La finestra di benvenuto è disponibile anche dal menu Aiuto. Quando la schermata di benvenuto viene chiusa facendo clic su OK, viene visualizzata la finestra di dialogo di configurazione BIM, che consente all'utente di impostare rapidamente alcune delle più comuni preferenze relative al BIM di FreeCAD senza la necessità di sfogliare tutte le pagine delle preferenze di FreeCAD.

Lo strumento Configurazione del progetto BIM consente di configurare rapidamente un progetto BIM riempiendo alcune informazioni di base sul progetto. È quindi possibile, ad esempio, utilizzare i diversi strumenti di disegno 2D per tracciare linee guida e linee di base, quindi utilizzare i diversi strumenti di modellazione 3D per creare oggetti BIM 3D su di esso.

Se si è abituati a lavorare con un'altra applicazione BIM, controllare la nostra Tabella di compatibilità dell'applicazione BIM quando si inizia a lavorare con FreeCAD.

Strumenti
Il workbench BIM riunisce strumenti da diversi altri workbench di FreeCAD, principalmente Draft, Arch e Part, riorganizzati approssimativamente in categorie logiche di strumenti: disegno 2D, modellazione 3D, annotazione e modifica. La categoria gestione contiene strumenti specifici per il workbench BIM.

Inoltre, se sono installati degli addon, gli strumenti di Armatura (strumenti supplementari per le armature), Fasteners (bulloni e viti), Flamingo (struttura metallica e strumenti di piping) e Libreria di parti sono automaticamente inclusi nel workbench BIM.

L'ambiente BIM aggiunge anche una serie di elementi nella barra di stato di FreeCAD e un paio di voci nel menu contestuale, accessibili facendo clic con il tasto destro nella vista 3D o nella vista ad albero.

Disegni 2D
2D objects are commonly used as drafting aids, or to draw base lines and profiles to build BIM objects on. They can also be used to draw symbols and annotations in your model. Apart from sketches, that use their own coordinate system, 2D objects will be drawn on the current working plane.

Annotation
Annotations are visual help objects that can be placed inside your model. They can be used to export your model directly to a 2D format like DXF, or reused when creating 2D views of your model with the TechDraw Workbench.
