新图标构建版本3 5为什么高级编码对于每个建筑专业人员都至关重要

Christoph Lux is product engineer at Leica Geosystems AG in Heerbrugg, responsible for building construction software. He explains the newLeica Icon Build v3.5，the software for layout tasks, as-builts and Quality Assurance & Quality Control (QAQC) on construction sites.

In a recentblogpostBernd Moeller talked about the new Layout Object app. Christoph now tells us more aboutnew coding functionalities for intelligent layout and as-built measurements.

Who can benefit from the Leica iCON build software on construction site?

图标构建是根据建筑专业人士的需求量身定制的。这些主要是建筑经理，现场工程师，工头或MEP布局专家，例如景观设计师。这些用户必须每天进行测量和布局任务。

There are 3 different groups of building construction professionals who can strongly improve the way they approach layout requirements on site:

• The first group可以手动布局。他们使用tape measures, calculators and paper plans, often with notepads, computations and additional sketches, to locate and mark points on the ground。This way of manual work gets complicated as soon as measurements have to be done across obstacles or over distances larger than 5 metres or 20 ft or with any angle other than 90°. It takes a lot of time and is prone for many types of errors.
• The second groupof building professionals has left tape measures behind. They are now usingmanual or robotic total stations- tailored to the special needs of construction professionals. This group has successfully overcome the obstacles of getting started with total stations. Many of these adopters say:"It’s paying off. Why didn't we use total stations earlier?"They appreciate the time saving factor, the layout accuracy and other major advantages, such as being able to store measurements, and simply being able to do ALL the necessary layout from ONE setup location or to make complicated changes quickly in the field with no need for going back to the office.
• 第三组starts to discover the potential of using codes and information enriched plans after being sick of calling the design office asking the same questions again and again, like“要点＃354到＃361电气还是水暖？”Standardized code lists - meaning identical code lists used throughout a project or a company – unlock the full potential of coding to this group.

在他们的个人数字化方面，所有人都can improve their daily measurement work considerably with Leica iCON build。

您能告诉我们更多有关在现场使用代码的优势吗？

Coding is an excellent time saver. Just about everyone doing layout in the field has run into this situation:“这是一个衣架还是紧急照明盒？”or"Are these points representing a concrete wall or interior drywall?"与编码、领域避免这样的问题ed. The information which type of point you are going to layout is directly available on your map screen.

Imagine doing as-built or data collection. You can code captured points, for example: "These 2 points will be existing sprinkler locations, these 3 points will be existing floor drains.” When you pass this information back to the office, the office manager doesn't have to guess what the captured points are. Field book notes turned in by the engineer get obsolete.

When coding is done correctly, it will minimize call-backs, re-work and time for post-processing.

How will the new Leica iCON build 3.5 improve measurement and layout tasks for construction professionals?

First，新版本3.5的用户现在受益于高级建模功能。信息丰富的图纸（IFC文件）可以直接加载到现场软件中。你得到的是一个完全呈现在t设计模型he field。

Select a wall by just tapping on it and all the necessary points and lines are available for layout: for example columns, slabs or pipe hangers. Anything that is an object can be selected and laid out directly in the field. With ONLY, an IFC file loaded - no DXF, no DWG and no additional point file, like txt or csv, laid over top is needed. Benefit from one file, with everything you need for layout including additional properties information for each object. Just like in the office modeling software.

The newLayout Object app，带有3.5版，是全球，也是同类产品中的第一个。非常直观，它有助于在现场平板电脑上的复杂3D文件中找到正确的点。以前困难和笨拙的图纸现在可以轻松解决。

Second，我们帮助用户更好地通过现场平板电脑上的2D和3D绘图找到自己的方式。您是否曾经经历过从密集包装的线条和代码的图纸中铺设的？笨拙，对吗？　With the new solution you can assign particular types of codes to different layers. For example concrete work, electrical installation or plumbing installation. Each layer can be hidden or unhidden.The user sees only what he needs for the particular task at hand。

Left: Information overload: map screen packed with everything Right: With iCON build the user sees only what he needs for his actual work.

Third, codes can be enriched with colors and symbols. Green triangles could mean emergency lighting, while yellow squares could mean building slab corners. There are 6 different symbols each available in 10 colours. If each code group has its own color and symbol, users have a visual reference.This new functionality improves readability of the map screen in the field.

带有颜色和符号的高级编码功能

该视频显示了如何使用新的编码功能：

Seems like you have done several meaningful steps towards full digitalisation of construction site.

I totally agree. Digitalisation currently is one of the main topics discussed in construction industry. In northern America, in countries like Singapore and in many European countries, BIM is already part of daily business. Many other countries will follow in the near future as new governmental regulations determine that public projects will have to apply BIM or digitalisation standards in order to comply.图标Build 3.5是根据建筑专业人员的需求量身定制的。这将有助于在办公室之间桥接BIM到野外和返回。

“在查看新图标构建3.5后，我为更新感到兴奋。国际金融公司的支持是一个改变游戏规则的人。可以选择一个对象并有点填充顶点的点，我们将不再有很多积分将屏幕上的混乱弄乱了。
有了新的Zlider Bar，我们可以真正专注于我们想要快速，轻松地看到的内容。今天，我们不像行线一样使用点的布局，但是我可以看到如何使用符号和颜色快速区分不同类型的点将成为一个巨大的优势。我真的很喜欢Leica Geosystems的方向。”

What is the key benefit of the new iCON build 3.5 software on construction site, in your opinion?

3D数据丰富了数字信息-BIM的“ I” - 现场直接可用。它使建筑专业人员能够将包含至关重要信息的设计以电子方式轻松地转移到网站，使用它，丰富它并以相同的方式发送回该网站。它提供了一种新的工作方式，可以在施工过程的所有步骤中提高效率。

Where can we learn more about the new software?

有几个选择：

• For a quick info, visit our网站或我们的Youtube channel。
• 目前，我们正在计划年度六角性现场展览的阶段。bob体育报道因此，请计划在以下情况下见我们：HXGN Live（2017年6月13日至16日在拉斯维加斯）。
• And finally, for the best experience and interaction with the new software, please contact your localLeica Geosystemsdistribution partner to schedule a demo。

When can we expect the software release?

The release is planned for the first week of April.

Christoph, many thanks for the conversation!

With pleasure!
