EASY TRANSITION

The Easiest Switch for CAD Users to BIM and Fire Fighting Software

In Fine FIRE you can create your BIM project in 2D or 3D using very simple 2D commands very familiar to any CAD user like polylines, trim, extend, entity snaps, copy... Fine FIRE combines a state-of-the-art BIM technology and an AutoCAD-like look and feel to help you to draw your project and networks faster and easier.

Draw in 2D and get all the 3D Automatically

Fine FIRE includes all the tools you need to draw the building in 2D or 3D but if you don't need it you can simply insert a 2D DWG drawing of the floor plan to use it as a background and focus on the fire fighting installation. You can also use our CAD features to quickly draw some walls.

Drawing the building in 3D with BIM objects is not required to proceed to the piping calculations but you can also do it in a few clicks. Calculation and design are independent modules : if you have a simple project you may like to use only the calculation module to enter just the data in a table and proceed to the calculations.

Update Drawing from Calculation

After performing the calculations you will update the drawing from the calculation module and insert labels in the floor plans showing the results and details you would like to display about each component. Pipes diameter will be calculated and pipes will be resized in the design.

Fine FIRE will also help you to create automatically the legend of your symbols and of course to generate all the technical drawings like the vertical diagrams of your fire fighting installations.

CALCULATIONS

Calculate your Fire Fighting Installations

Fine FIRE's Calculation module is closely interacting with the installation drawing. Calculations are performed following the widely accepted NFPA13 standard or the EN12845 standard.

Calculate from the drawing

The calculation Component (Fire Fighting) is automatically updated from the installation drawings through the AutoNET group of commands. The pipe networks are recognized and transferred into the calculation sheets. Calculations rely on a rich Methodological background, based on International, American (NFPA13) and European standards (EN12845). You may also modify these data if you want for example to anticipate a future extension of the network.

All the Results in a few clicks

Besides the piping calculations, Fine FIRE calculates all the necessary equipment (i.e. Pressure assembly, tank volume etc), as well as the bill of the materials, technical descriptions/specifications and other results.

An alternative way to get the calculations is by using the intelligent Fine FIRE wizard. The user describes the Fire Fighting installations in a visual way, through the existing templates (slides) and then the wizard generates the vertical diagram plus the results of the calculations.

2D/3D OUTPUTS

Get Automatically all the Technical Drawings

After proceeding to the design of the network and calculations our MEP Software will let you generate all the technical drawings and reports you need.

Vertical Diagrams/Charts

Our MEP Software will generate for you the vertical diagrams of your fire fighting installation network in DWG drawings you can further modify and/or share.
