ReluxCAD for Revit – New update 2024 with emergency lighting (incl. live preview)

ReluxCAD for Revit – update 2024.1.8.
Extension emergency lighting

With our add-on 'ReluxCAD for Revit,' we make it possible plan lighting and sensors in Revit following EN 1838 standards closing the loop in BIM. We've upgraded the add-on for emergency lighting planning with new tools that simplify the process. Particularly, the new 'Live Results' feature enables immediate visualisation during planning.

There is a significant efficiency boost by optimizing the performance. The calculation and export of large projects can be processed up to 3 times faster. Find morre details in the video of the latest episode of FUN with RELUX.

What's new in ReluxCAD for Revit?

Automatic placement
of emergency luminaires

The required number of safety lights to achieve the minimum illuminance can be easily placed automatically.

Emergency lighting pictograms

The plugin contains emergency lighting pictograms as RFA which can be placed directly into the project.

Emergency 3D objects from ReluxNet

3D objects from ReluxNet can be placed directly into the Revit project. This includes safety objects such as fire extinguishers, smoke detectors, alarm buttons, etc.

Live Results

Results of lighting calculations can be visualised in real time. The minimum of illuminance as well as the uniformity are taken into account.

Emergency lighting

These features for emergency lighting planning are already integrated into the current version 2024.1:

New emergency lighting ribbon
RFAs with emergency lighting information
Define fixtures as emergency lights
Emergency lighting pictograms for fixtures
Emergency lighting measurement areas (anti-panic, escape Routes and high-risk areas)
