LANSDALE, PA — Tyco Fire Protection Products, a global leader in fire suppression technologies, recently introduced and demonstrated its new SprinkCAD 3D and SprinkCODE Connect software during an online webinar. This webinar is now available on demand by visiting www.sprinkcad.com.
SprinkCAD offers SprinkCAD 101, a distance-learning class to teach beginner procedures of the SprinkCAD v3.5 software. This course is presented in eight-parts involving unit tests, sample drawings, and a final exam. Proctored by Joe Curry, former instructor of SprinkCAD classes at Seneca college, these programs progress at the student's desired. SprinkCAD does ok, but looks like it was built on a commodore 64. I just need something to look reaonsably easy to use for functionality. I would love to develop drawings in 3D since our company is beginning to do more retrofit projects and it involves detailed drawings for almost exact measurements. It's a SprinkCAD action after a SprinkCAD command. I've attached snip shots. With the command, SprinkCAD is supposed to put pipe length dimensions on the individual pipe segments (color magenta) as shown in the snip shot labeled 'segments'. This function worked fine with AutoCAD but does not with BricsCAD.

The SprinkCAD Sprinkler System Design Software Suite from Tyco Fire Protection Products provides comprehensive tools for sprinkler system design, hydraulic calculation, fluid delivery time calculation and more. SprinkCAD 3D is now available for full 3D modeling. Built on the industry standard AutoCAD or BricsCAD, the software works off a single database to simplify design and allows designers to truly design in 3D from start to finish.
Tyco also announced several live demonstrations and training sessions in 2016 in the following cities: Los Angeles, Atlanta, Dallas, Seattle, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Toronto and British Columbia, Canada.
Two sessions are offered in each city: a half-day overview of SprinkCAD 3D and SprinkCODE Connect, and a two-day hands-on learning session that will include 1.4 continuing education units. Those interested in attending any of the in-person demonstrations can register online at www.sprinkcad.com/launch.
SprinkCAD continues to simplify the process of creating design and coordination drawings for fire sprinkler systems with the addition of BiMport. BiMport is the newest utility from SprinkCAD that takes the next step in 3D piping coordination by exporting the piping model to a Revit-compatible format utilizing Tyco Fire Protection Products Revit Families. Now SprinkCAD is compatible with both NavisWorks and Revit with no new commands to learn.
SprinkCODE Connect updates the SprinkCODE software into an interactive NFPA 13 Code Guide that quickly and accurately helps narrow options for the desired system density and coverage area — within seconds, available options can be displayed for any NFPA 13 code requirement. The new, web-based functionality gives the latest code information anytime, anywhere.
SprinkCODE Connect is available stand-alone or for use with SprinkCAD 3D design software. The full SprinkCAD family of software includes SprinkCAD 3D, SprinkFDT, SprinkCODE Connect, SprinkCALC and SprinkSLIC.
