MagiCAD Cloud FAQ
What is MagiCAD Cloud?
MagiCAD Cloud is Europe’s largest Building Information Modelling (BIM) library for Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) objects. BIM objects on MagiCAD Cloud are verified by the manufacturers and contain accurate dimensions and comprehensive technical information for MEP calculations.
MagiCAD Cloud serves the needs of MEP designers, engineers preparing specifications, contractors, as well as others in the construction industry when designing for BIM.
MagiCAD Cloud subscription is free, with no hidden costs. By subscribing to MagiCAD Cloud, users can browse a full catalogue of more than 1,000,000 BIM objects and view product-specific technical data and 3D previews on the objects. MagiCAD Cloud subscribers can also download a portion of the BIM objects for use in projects. Full access of the MagiCAD Cloud is provided with the purchase of MagiCAD software for MEP. Depending on the manufacturer, the downloadable objects on MagiCAD Cloud are available in Revit RFA format, AutoCAD DXF format, or both.
How can I subscribe to MagiCAD Cloud for free?
Subscribing to MagiCAD Cloud is easy and takes only a minute of your time, go to address www.magicad.com/en/cloud/subscribe and fill in your details. You will receive an email from MagiCAD Cloud with a link for completing your registration. Click the link, complete your registration and define a password for your MagiCAD Cloud account. When you have completed the registration, you have instant and free-of-charge access to all of MagiCAD Cloud’s downloadable content on www.magicad.cloud/products
How does my free subscription to MagiCAD Cloud benefit me?
MagiCAD Cloud contains more than 1,000,000 high-quality BIM objects of MEP products from 290 leading manufacturers. BIM objects within the database are complete with accurate dimensions and comprehensive technical data for MEP calculations.
A portion of the BIM objects are downloadable to subscribers free of charge. Depending on the manufacturer, the downloadable objects on MagiCAD Cloud are available in Revit RFA format, AutoCAD DXF format, or both.
In which file formats are the downloadable object models available on MagiCAD Cloud?
Depending on the manufacturer, the downloadable objects on MagiCAD Cloud are available in Revit RFA format, AutoCAD DXF format, or both. Revit RFA files support two (or in some cases, four) of the latest Revit versions.
How accurate and reliable are the MagiCAD Cloud objects in terms of dimensions and data content?
Very accurate for design purposes. You can be sure that manufacturer-specific objects available through MagiCAD Cloud have been checked for quality by the manufacturer of the physical MEP product or device.
Can I use BIM objects from MagiCAD Cloud without MagiCAD?
Yes, you can. The objects available through MagiCAD Cloud do not require the use of MagiCAD. MagiCAD Cloud is intended for all MEP designers who use AutoCAD, BricsCAD and Revit technologies. A portion of the BIM objects are downloadable to all MagiCAD Cloud subscribers. Depending on the manufacturer, the downloadable objects on MagiCAD Cloud are available in Revit RFA format, AutoCAD DXF format, or both. However, if you are a MagiCAD for MEP software user, you have access to all of MagiCAD Cloud’s over 1,000,000 data-rich objects through MagiCAD’s Product Browser and MagiCAD Connect. MagiCAD also enables you to make full use of the technical data stored in the BIM objects, enabling advanced calculations and more accurate MEP design.
Why do the 3D objects loaded into the project seem less detailed than the preview 3D objects?
The 3D preview is very detailed to give an accurate visual impression of how the product are in real life. Once the product is loaded into a project, an optimised version of the same 3D object is created for the purposes of optimising the project size. This optimised version has all the same physical dimensions, characteristics and data as the more visually-detailed preview, but because of the optimisation, the hard drive space required by the object is considerably smaller. This is one of the benefits of MagiCAD, as it provides products with accurate characteristics and data and at the same time ensures that the project does not become too cumbersome in terms of system performance. MagiCAD projects work with optimal performance even when thousands of BIM objects have been added into the projects.
Powerful software for smarter MEP design
Fully integrated within Autodesk’s Revit and AutoCAD platforms, and Bricsys’ BricsCAD platform, MagiCAD offers a set of powerful modelling functions for each MEP discipline and enables integrated system calculations.
