Riser Diagrams
A necessary part of fire alarm system documentation, the FireBIM riser feature allows engineers to quickly generate coordinated diagrams directly within Revit. Inserting panels and circuits that automatically display connected devices and addresses using shared parameters eliminates manual drafting and reduces coordination errors between the riser and floor plan. Any changes made in the model update automatically, ensuring consistent, accurate documentation with full graphic customization.
Voltage Drop
Advanced fire alarm designs require accurate voltage drop calculations to ensure devices operate within acceptable limits. In FireBIM, voltage drop is calculated automatically using circuit length from the Revit model, connected device loads, and selected wire sizes. Engineers can review end-of-line or running total calculations directly within a dedicated schedule, with options for Class A or Class B circuits that update both the schedule and riser instantly.
Battery Calculations
Rather than relying on manual battery calculations, FireBIM simplifies the process by automatically totaling connected device loads in Revit and calculating required battery capacity based on user-defined standby and alarm times. It also accounts for internal panel loads, ensuring accurate battery sizing for each alarm control panel. By managing calculations within a single coordinated model, FireBIM eliminates the need to coordinate across multiple disconnected workflows.
