Tech Soft 3D Helps Fieldwire Rapidly Bring BIM Viewing to Its Construction Management Platform

Tech Soft 3D, the provider of engineering software development toolkits, announced that HOOPS Platform is being used to power the Fieldwire BIM viewer. Fieldwire is changing the future of construction with its productivity tools for the construction field. The company’s field management platform – which is accessible via browser, tablet, or smartphone – gives customers access to critical project-related information while they’re on the job. Fieldwire had always offered robust 2D plan viewing capabilities, but sought to evolve the product with new features around 3D model viewing, to better support its customer base. Additionally, it was important for Fieldwire to support BIM viewing on both web and mobile, while providing offline capabilities for those mobile users as a lot of construction project sites that are just getting started up don’t have a Wi-Fi connection, and there might not even be LTE or 3G in those areas. That made offline support a need-to-have. www.techsoft3d.com
