Horizontal Glue :: Overview

Horizontal Glue™ brings BIM (Building Information Modeling) to the web as a coordinated system that communicates directly with leading design and project management software. Data formats and exchanges are handled through the Glue Server, eliminating incompatibility issues between different software platforms and disperse project members. Glue enables effective and timely collaboration by updating a single BIM Server as project participants work in offices around the globe.

Benefits
- Real-Time Project BIM accessible 24/7
- One central repository to manage models
- Integrated building model versioning control
- Automated archiving
- Eliminates file format exchange issues
- Links RFIs (Requests For Information) directly to BIM objects
- Create and review redlines and project revisions

With Horizontal Glue™ budget line items automatically update in real time as the building model evolves, enabling rapid execution of what-if scenarios and a comprehensive understanding of the impact to cost and schedule due to design changes at any phase of the project. The Glue Server lends transparency to the relationship between BIM objects and budgetary or scheduling line items; this makes the Glue Server the only base technology where clash detection, measurements and analysis can all occur within the same live model on the web.
