Latest Article and Resource
In this month’s technical study we explore different UK exposure zones and the design requirements for cavity walls.
In addition to the technical study, we have put together a new resource that includes the CAD drawings shown in the article, demonstrating different build ups relevant to the exposure zones.

The Detail Library provides hundreds of construction details for you to download and use adjust for your own projects.
The details are available in 2D Revit, CAD dwg, and 3D SketchUp. You can start downloading straight away and build your own detail reference library.
Not like other BIM libraries, the Detail Library contains fully resolved details rather than individual components.
