Component Tools

I have been a Plusspec, PlusArchitect and Now PlusdesignBuild user for almost 6 years now and as far as I can see, the component tools especially plumbing and electrical look exactly same as it did when i first started using. Are there plans in the future to enable users to create thier own custom electrical and plumbing components library? My work is primarily Commercial, Retail and Industrial

Hi Sekta,

We do periodically add & update the components in the :component_tool: Component Tool but if you’re looking for more I’d recommend checking out the :bimbits_3d_model_library: BIMBits 3D Model Library.

There currently aren’t plans to add the functionality of creating your own library, but never say never. In the meantime I’d recommend creating a component library somewhere on your computer (a shared drive works best if you have multiple people needing access to the same components).
Tip: Before saving the component, use the :bim_tool: BIM Tool on any component you create or download so that the estimation info is saved with it & will appear when imported/drag-&-dropped into your model.
