ReluxCAD for Revit – Update 2024.1
incl. emergency lighting

We have upgraded the add-on "ReluxCAD for Revit" for professional lighting planning in Revit with a new function for emergency lighting planning. Safety lighting planning according to EN 1838 is now possible!

Emergency lighting systems provide sufficient illumination in an emergency to safely carry out evacuations and emergency measures. This is why careful planning of emergency lighting is crucial.

The update also offers the integration of essential elements for emergency lighting planning thanks to a new ribbon that can be applied directly in Revit. Find more information in the video.

Interface to BIM: a bidirectional interface to Revit enables loss-free communication with ReluxDesktop.
