iSAP

Unique 3D graphical interface to SAP 2005 and direct links to SketchUp /Revit

iSAP is a new low cost SAP 2005 solution developed by IES in conjunction with JPA|TL. Linking JPA’s easy to use SAP 2005 design tool with IES’s 3D graphical user interface, this unique proposition saves users time and money.
 
As IES has also created integrated plug-ins to Google SketchUp™ and Autodesk® Revit®, users can uniquely undertake these compliance calculations directly from a SketchUp or Revit model if desired.
 
iSAP is a bundle consisting of the following software:
-          IES ModelIT
-          IES UK Dwellings
-          JPA SAP 2005
 
UK Dwellings replaces IES’s Part L1 module and existing users are eligible for upgrade offers.

  • Unique 3D interface to SAP2005 for transparency and ease of use;
  • No laborious re-input of 2D/3D geometry (bring direct from CAD, SketchUp or Revit);
  • Ability to assess mixed use buildings from the same model with free link to SBEM;
  • Ability to build calculation libraries and templates to avoid duplication of effort;
  • Automatic pre-population of JPA SAP 2005 with data from IES model for single and multiple dwellings (geometry, constructions and property room groups);
