Product catalog summary
Overview
Bentley Building Electrical Systems™ is a comprehensive BIM solution designed for the analysis, design, and documentation of electrical systems in commercial, institutional, and industrial facilities. It supports all phases of the engineering workflow, from conceptual design to detailed modeling, integrating design, visualization, drawing production, and reporting.
Key Features
  • Design and Modeling: Streamlines the design process for electrical subsystems such as lighting, power, fire detection, and more, with tools for automated symbol placement and cable routing.
  • 2D and 3D Modeling: Offers flexibility to work in either 2D or 3D environments using the same tools.
  • Step-wise Refinement: Allows for detailed information to be added at different stages of the project lifecycle.
  • Integration with Analysis: Interfaces with industry-standard power and lighting design analysis programs, localized for country-specific codes.
  • Automated Drawing Production: Facilitates rapid creation of construction drawings with automated generation of schematic diagrams and drawing legends.
  • Schedules and Reporting: Enables querying of the information model to generate accurate schedules and reports.
  • Managed Environment: Integrates with Bentley® ProjectWise® for collaboration and management of project information.

Bentley Building Electrical Systems Brochure-1

Bentley Building Electrical Systems > supports all phases of the engineering workflow, from conceptualdesign to the detailed design and modeling of electrical subsystems including analysis, documentation, and management, integrating design, visualization, drawing production, and reporting of quantities and costs. Used on large and complex projects around the world, Bentley Building Electrical Systems was specifically developed to support workgroups and distributed teams in a managed environment allowing engineers, architects, and contractors to build as one. BIM enables business-critical benefits over traditional computer-aided drafting (CAD), eliminates waste,significantly reduces errors and omissions, provides greater predictability of costs and performance, allows exploration of more design options, and ultimately results in better buildings. Bentley Building Electrical Systems is partof Bentleyْsbuilding information modeling (BIM) solution of integrated design, engineering, and management applications for the entire life cycle of constructed assets. > Symbol arrangement. Streamline the design and modeling process for electrical subsystems, such as lighting, power, fire detection, security, communications, and other building subsystems with comprehensive tools for automated symbol placement, raceway design, cable and circuit routing, schedule generation and more. > Interface to power analysisprogram for conductor sizing. The building information model can be created and manipulated in a traditional 2D plan or an advanced 3D model environment using the same tools and interface for either. > Bentley Building Electrical Systems utilizes ֓stepwise refinement which allows design professionals to add more detailed information at different stages throughout the project lifecycle. > Bi-directional interfaces to a variety of industry-standard power engineering and lighting design analysis programs. These interfaces are localized for maximum benefit to users with country specific codes and standards requirements. > Interface to lighting analysis program showing output (RElux). Design and construction deliverables arean output of the design workflow,where, design data is enteredonce and used multiple times. Powerful features, such as automated generation of schematic diagramsand drawing legends facilitate the rapid creation of construction drawings. > Electrical properties can be used to query the information model, make selective or global changes, andto generate accurate schedules and reports, such as cable and device schedules, cost estimates, andpanel schedules, quickly and easily. > Bentley Building Electrical Systems can be integrated with Bentley > Ԯ ProjectWise > ,acollaboration server that manages access to project information across a LAN, WAN, VPN, or through the Internet, and publishes and synchronizes shared information, manages change, protects intellectual property rights, and more. > Visit us on the Web for more information about Bentley solutions and services. www .bentley .com >
