Equipment Sets are groups of objects that share the same properties. By grouping objects into equipment sets, you can prepare your BIM 360 Glue model data for integration with BIM 360 Field.
In a typical workflow, a VDC Manager opens a merged model in BIM 360 Glue, places model objects in equipment sets, and then shares the model with BIM 360 Field. The Field administrator can then open the model in Field and map the equipment set data to equipment properties in Field.
Create Using Objects
- In BIM 360 Glue, open a model and navigate to the desired view.
- Select an object in the model. Alternatively, on the BIM 360 Glue toolbar, click
Models, expand a model node and select an object.
- Right-click the selected object
Create "Object" Equipment Set.
"Object" is replaced by the name of the object you select. All objects matching the selected object are automatically highlighted in the model and placed into an equipment set.
- Optional: In the Equipment Sets window, rename the Equipment Set
Enter.
Note: If Equipment Sets window is empty, use object properties to create an equipment set.
