Creating laying plans with Stabicad

With Stabicad you can easily create an installation plan for your floor heating. This can be done by drawing a rectangle or based on a space (Revit space) or by using a polyline (AutoCAD & LT).

You can also specify the direction. You can create the laying plan conceptually with model lines but it can also be done directly with manufacturer-specific flexible pipes (Revit). Based on the laid pattern you can quickly determine the total number of meters of pipe to be ordered by means of an order list.

Floor heating modeling

With Stabicad you can model underfloor heating:- Place model line- Draw flexible piping- Place manifold- Model with bendable/flexible direction of underfloor heating- Place underfloor heating symbol
