AtlasIED announces that Building Information Modeling (BIM) objects, families and system files for AtlasIED products are now available through ARCAT, an online resource of free building product information.

Making it easier for members of the architectural, engineering and construction (AEC) community to more accurately specify AtlasIED solutions into projects of any size and scope, the new BIM library can also help reduce errors during the design and installation phases. Having the specifications for AtlasIED products available through ARCAT can speed up design time and reduce frustration and it can also help improve communication and understanding between architects, designers, and AtlasIED dealers.

ARCAT users can choose from hundreds of AtlasIED loudspeakers, power conditioners, and speaker enclosures, obtain accurate product specifications and download files in Revit or DWG formats. These free files are compatible with all major BIM and CAD software programs, including AutoCAD, Sketch-Up, ArchiCAD and many more. Utilizing BIM objects helps identify design conflicts prior to construction, which reduces the potential for work order changes, and additional charges and time on the project.

The AtlasIED ARCAT company page facilitates architect and builder Request for Information (RFI) or Request For Quotation (RFQ) submissions with one click. ARCAT users can also request a full AtlasIED catalog or schedule a meeting with a local AtlasIED rep to learn more.

AtlasIED manufactures a full line of architectural loudspeakers, as well as life safety, mass notification, VoIP and sound masking solutions for commercial and corporate environments. The company’s loudspeakers — often used in these environments and a go-to for those in the AEC community — are engineered to enhance the aesthetics of a room and blend seamlessly into the design while providing superior audio quality to meet the needs of today’s corporate and healthcare facilities, educational institutions, stadiums, retail outlets and more.
