You’ve learned to combine your models; now start checking them and getting your builds right the first time every time.

How to prepare for checking your model:

1. Open. Open the Checking view and select a suitable role.
2. Choose. Select a ruleset to define which rules to check against.
3. Complete. Complete a task and it will disappear from the list so you can continue checking.

How to check the entire model or selected parts of it:

• Run. Run checks for your entire model.
• Select. Check selected components by adding them in the Selection basket.

Watch these tutorial videos to see how you can examine and communicate the issues found in checking.

How to examine the issues found in checking:

1. View. Go through issues one by one by either viewing issues in a category hierarchy or all at once in a flat list.
2. Flatten. Choose the flat Component List if you want to sort components by how many issues they have and the severity of the issues.
3. Reflect. Dissect issues in the Info view and reflect them back in the Results.
4. Visualize. Choose between automatic (only the problematic components are visualized in the 3D view), transparent (problematic components are shown in red and other components are shown as transparent), or no visualization.

IV. How to communicate the issues to others:

1. Add. Create issues out of the errors found in checking and save a good viewpoint to the model.
2. Assign. Add descriptions, responsibilities and labels.
3. Present. Turn issues into presentations and share them with all stakeholders.

Get ready to take the next step towards dramatically improving your workflow. Watch the video on how you can utilize classifications and Information Takeoffs in Solibri.

1. Take off. Take off not just quantities but other types of information saved in the model too, either by spaces or building elements.
2. Classify. Classify your model components to use and share information throughout your building’s life-cycle.

Watch these tutorial videos to see examples of some of the many rules that are available in Solibri Office.

Solibri Rule #237 Parking

The parking rule allows you to check the dimensions of parking spaces so that they’re easy to park in.

Solibri Rule #238 Accessible route

The accessible route rule checks for bottlenecks when moving with a wheelchair.

Solibri Rule #240 Effective coverage

With the effective coverage rule, you can ensure your building has sufficient coverage for, for example, ventilation, lighting, sprinklers, Wi-Fi, or surveillance cameras.

Solibri Rule #241 Space connection

The Space Connection rule allows you to check whether a space is connected with an outside exit or another space via, for example, a door or an opening. This can be used for natural ventilation purposes, for checking that all rooms have easy access to corridors, or, for ensuring the building serves its daily operations as smoothly as possible.

Solibri Rule #212 and #242 Building envelope

The building envelope rules check the outer shell of the building, verifying that there are no gaps between the external walls and spaces, and ensuring that any recesses or internal airwells in the envelope have appropriate dimensions.
