The Building Information Model Climate Action Tool (bimCAT) gives you a fully functioning web-based Carbon Query Database (such as EC3) inside your Autodesk® Revit® project.
- Upload material types and quantities to the web app from Revit.
- Use powerful estimation tools to get takeoffs in the units required by Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs)
- Evaluate climate impact and savings opportunities based on over 100K verified EPDs for real products.
- Use rich interactive graphs and heatmaps to understand the areas of greatest impact and savings potential in the design.
- Annotate takeoff equations and GWP intensity back to the .rvt file for use in other designs and future versions.
- Save, share, and compare Revit families in a library of bimCAT-annotated components.
- Create custom reports for Buy Clean policies, LEED, and ICMS.
Note: This app uses a custom installer (and not the standard App Store installer).
