In the company’s own interest, work has already been
underway since 2015 on digital processes for architects,
planners, fabricators and operators of buildings in order
to offer users added value in the world of digitally supported
planning and construction. Through digital data preparation,
Jansen supports architects and planning offices
right from the very first phase – conception, planning and
specification. Via the BIMobject cloud, Jansen offers BIM
models of various steel systems for individual download.
As part of the manufacturer initiative «productsforbim»,
Jansen is one of the first to offer digital models of their
window, door and fa ade systems. Jansen promotes the
holistic planning approach through digital twins. BIM
models are available to architects and planners as 3D elements
in Autodesk Revit and ArchiCAD formats without
restriction and free of charge. We support fabricators in
the BIM process with the JANISoft calculation software,
which can be used to read in Revit models or create new
object-specific models. Last but not least, the good design
of our products means that the required documentation
is comprehensively prepared and digitally available for
all participants

Simplified planning with high added value
All Jansen systems are designed for planning with
BIM. As a manufacturer of building products,
we focus on the aspect of how productspecific manufacturer data enters the
construction process and at what
point in the construction which
information is required.
BIM presupposes that
3D architecture programs
such as Revit
(Autodesk) or Archi-
CAD (Graphisoft) are
used for the construction.
The advantage
of this 3D
modelling software
is practically almost
self-explanatory:
They detect and reduce
any design errors at
an early stage (collision
checks on the overall
model) and provide reliable
quantity information.
For
example: Instead of counting all
the doors in 2D CAD drawings, in
the 3D modelling software packages all
the doors installed in the building can be determined
at the push of a button and thus the costs
can also be elicited at an early stage. Another benefit is:
The client receives an almost photo-realistic representation
(high-resolution renderings) of the commissioned
building at a very early stage; materials used are visualised.
A virtual tour of the building offers enormous added
value compared to the conventional working method. The
client has the opportunity to influence the project at a
very early stage. Also misunderstandings or misinterpretations
between the client and the architect are avoided,
as the object can be viewed in 3D in advance.
Digital collaboration in the construction industry
Jansen BIM models thus make it possible to design
window, door and fa ade systems which can then be combined,
visualised and optimised as early as the building
planning stage. The BIM process offers great potential for
cost and time savings in construction. Large construction
projects in particular are a particular challenge for digital
collaboration. Standards for data formats must be created
so that the individual digital models in the building provided
by the respective manufacturer can also communicate
with each other. So it all comes down to the interfaces.
As an architect, engineer, designer or planner you receive
free access manufacturer-specifc BIM objects. The Jansen BIM models are used as 3D elements for digital building
models. These include information on both geometry
and product data. The BIM models can be downloaded
for Revit and ArchiCAD as well as in neutral IFC format
on request.

Thanks to the tried-and-tested JANISoft software, Jansen Revit interface ad hoc-specific BIM models can be created at the customer’s request. Even tests, calculations and dimensioning are part of the range of services. In the Jansen Docu Center, you can call up all support documents for the steel profile systems. There you will find the latest versions of the delivery programs, processing documents, relevant certificates and evidence required by the metal fabricator for declarations of performance and required CE markings. In addition, we offer brief tutorials. In these, the processing of certain products is explained by the experts of the Technology Centre.
