The CYPE HVAC Solution offers all the necessary tools to design, analyze and verify building HVAC systems. It also includes all the CYPE tools to import, create and modify BIM models.
IFC Builder
Creation and maintenance of building IFC models. This application is integrated in the Open BIM workflow via the IFC4 standard.
IFC Uploader
With this application IFC files can be imported into BIMserver.center platform and be integrated into the CYPE Open BIM workflow.
The tool has an integrated viewer to view the set of models that are linked to each project.
Open BIM Analytical Model
This application has been developed to generate analytical geometric models of buildings in order to carry out their energy and acoustic analysis.
The program allows users to enter all the elements that make up the analytical model, such as spaces, surfaces, edges, joints etc. It is also possible to indicate the existing relationships between these entities (which spaces they belong to, adjacencies between surfaces, edges that form a joint etc).

CYPE HVAC Radiant Floor
BIM modelling and design of radiant floor installations. This application is integrated in the Open BIM workflow using the IFC standard.
CYPE HVAC Ductwork
Duct network project, with analysis and design. This application is integrated in the Open Workflow using the IFC standard.
CYPE THERM HVAC
Design of HVAC installations (heating, ventilation and air conditioning). This application is integrated in the Open BIM workflow using the IFC standard.
CYPE PLUMBING Solar Systems
Design of solar thermal collection installations. This application is integrated in the Open BIM workflow using the IFC standard.
CYPE LUX
Lighting analysis of lighting installations. This application is integrated in the Open BIM workflow using the IFC standard. This product includes Radiance software developed by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
Open BIM Cost Estimator
Estimate of the construction costs of a building, during the preliminary phases of the project, based on the built surface area, height of the building and the construction, typological, geographical and socio-economic factors. This application is integrated in the Open BIM workflow using the IFC standard.
Arquímedes
The most complete tool for Project Management: bills of quantities, project certifications and specifications.
Open BIM Layout
Composition of drawings with views and sections that have been created based on BIM models. This application is integrated in the Open BIM workflow using the IFC standard.
Open BIM Model Checker
Tool to check BIM projects, including management of issues of the model. This application is integrated in the Open BIM workflow using the IFC standard.
App BIMserver.center Mobile
Using the BIMserver.center application, you can manage and consult the projects that are being developed on the platform in an agile an intuitive manner.
Using the updating service in the cloud that is provided by BIMserver.center, you can manage and share all your BIM project files, keep all the information up-to-date at all times and work on several devices simultaneously.
App BIMserver.center AR
With the BIMserver.center AR application, you can browse through your projects and view them in augmented reality. Additionally, you can select which files are to be viewed and check the properties of each of the elements that make up the model.
View your models hosted in BIMserver.center in augmented reality directly, without having to carry out any previous steps. You can place your models on any type of surface, browse through them and, using multi-touch gestures, move, scale and rotate them.
App BIMserver.center VR
From BIMserver.center VR, you can access the projects that are being developed on the platform from a completely virtual environment. Thanks to the direct connection to BIMserver.center, you can manage your projects in virtual reality, without having to perform any previous steps.
Once one of your projects has been uploaded to BIMserver.center, and using the controls of your virtual reality headset, you can browse through the project, inspect its elements and consult their properties interactively.
