Better services for optimal BIM practice

The world of BIMA Building Information Model (BIM) is a sharedknowledge resource for information about abuilding, forming a reliable basis for decisionsduring its life cycle.

BIM enables cross functional project teams to share an intelligent building model to better design, plan, execute and manage building. It is ideal for exterior design as well as interior design.

Mosa BIM servicesAt Mosa we continuously strive to optimise ourservices. We closely monitor the growing use ofBuilding Information Modelling (BIM). This sharedknowledge resource is the future of building anddesign. To enable optimal practice with BIM wehave taken our digital services to the next level.As of now you can easily find your way to allour BIM and CAD information via the MosaBIM & CAD portal.

This booklet provides a short introduction to and overview of our solutions for BIM and CAD.

Make intelligent building models in your design software.

Multiple BIM solutionsWe offer multiple BIM and CAD solutionsfor any phase of the building process: design,visualisation, simulation, documentation andbuild. With extensive product data and filesfor both single tiles and tile surfaces, usable inall common design software.

Mosa BIM & CAD portal: easy and fastGetting the right information when you need itwithout any hassle is vital to your building project, therefore our BIM & CAD portal will guide you to the solution that suits your needs. You can search your solution by software type and output type.

Create distinctive floor and wall surfaces with layered BIM objects.

Layered BIM objects for surfacesTypically building products are only available as single BIM objects. This means that you will have to copy, paste and position these single products in order to create a floor or wall surface.

Mosa realises this is a complicated process so we have made it easier for you. Mosa tiles are available as both single objects and layeredobjects for surfaces. You can create these layered objects for standard or custom tile surfaces with multiple solutions, like our online design tool; the Mosa Pattern Generator.

Mosa’s download centreThe download centre provides technical product data and a 2D grid library. If you work with AutoCAD software you will profit from the download centre on mosa.com. We have a large selection of floor and wall surface grids available specifically for CAD files. The grids can be filtered on tile size and are providing the following files: DWG, DXF and PDF. You can find the download centre on mosa.com under ‘Services’.

Mosa’s product detail pagesEvery tile in our collection has its own productdetail page on mosa.com. On this page you canfind BIM information, colour codes and muchmore particular product information. Use thesearch bar to find your favourite tile or browsethrough our collection (under ‘Collection’) tofind the product of your choice.

BouwConnect.nlThe BouwConnect platform is a Dutch library forBIM and CAD files and information. Our BIM filesfor Revit, 2D/3D textures, CAD files and general product data can be found in the BouwConnect library or via their software plugin for Revit. Just visit bcb-online.nl and type ‘Mosa’ in the searchbar.

Mosa Pattern Generator as BIM toolThe Mosa Pattern Generator is an online designtool that enables you to design tile patterns forwalls and floors simply and quickly. You are free tochoose from all available formats, grids, textures,and colours. Anything is possible, whether yourdesign is complex or simple, geometric or rhythmic, demure or bold.

Besides a unique design tool the Pattern Generator is the ultimate BIM appliance. Easy export functions provide you with BIM and CAD files for all common software.

The Mosa Pattern Generator is the first and only surface design tool that offers layered BIM objects.This means that you do not have to copy and pastesingle objects to create a tile surface anymore.

We developed a special plugin: Mosa Converter for Revit. This plugin is connected with our Mosa Pattern Generator.
