Over the last two years, Elmdene has released various power supply ranges as BIM Objects hosted on the NBS National BIM Library. 

Elmdene selected products that provide back-up power to critical Security and Fire systems, to be authored as BIM objects.  BIM objects are detailed information that defines a product and the dimensions that represents the product's physical characteristics. The objects are presented in a consistent format that allows designers to use the files within a digital BIM environment.

NBS have now launched a new platform, NBS Source.  Bringing together NBS National BIM Library, NBS Plus Product Selector, on a brand-new platform that will create a single source for product information to integrate seamlessly into project workflows.

Elmdene have now joined the NBS Source, for hosting all BIM Objects.

Peter Long, Product Manager at Elmdene, said:

"It’s crucial that fire and security systems have the appropriate battery back-up, so we want to make it as easy as possible for designers and planners to incorporate our products, in IFC or Revit formats, within their digitalised construction projects.”
