About the Nero Tapware BIM Content Library

A BIM Library Made To Meet Industry Demand

Nero has partnered with Australia’s leading BIM Content specialists IGS BIM Solutions to develop an extensive Revit library which is free for designers to access from the Nero website and via BIMcontent.com.

The Nero Revit library is ‘project-ready’ and developed according to industry best practices. All families have been created with attention to detail in areas such as Family and Shared Parameters, 2D linework, Origin Points, Family/Type Naming, Product Data Integration, Reference Planes, application of Materials, Classification, and File Size.

In addition to Revit families, the Nero Revit library also includes a ‘Virtual Showroom’, a Revit project file loaded with all Families and Types. This Virtual Showroom provides designers with an efficient way to download and browse the Revit library in its entirety, and to view how the families document and schedule consistently in a Revit project environment.

Features & Hosting

A notable feature of the Nero Tapware BIM Content library is that the Revit families have been modelled 100% natively in Revit and incorporate pre-set ‘level of detail’ settings to ensure they perform well in a project environment. In addition, certain models include parametric functionality, allowing designers to easily switch between product options that best suit specific project requirements.

Further recognising and accommodating varying Revit user preferences, the library is available to download in multiple versions of Revit (2020-24). A library of 2D and 3D CAD files is also available for users of AutoCAD and other CAD programs.

To ensure designers can access the library using workflows optimised for browsing and downloading BIM content, Nero is utilising IGS group’s fast-growing BIM Content hosting platform, BIMcontent.com. In implementing the website integration feature of BIMcontent.com, Nero has ensured designers are able to experience the same optimised search, preview and download workflows on both the Nero website and BIMcontent.com.

This includes the ability to preview the 3D Revit geometry in the web browser, view parameter data, download specific versions of Revit content, and choose the type of Revit content download – Individual Revit Families, Product Range and Revit Format-based ‘Collections’ , Revit Project File (AKA, ‘Virtual Showroom’) or even a one-click ‘Download All’ option – catering to various user preferences.

To access the new BIM library of over 140+ Revit families of Tapware, Showers and Bathroom Accessories from Nero, please visit: nerotapware.com.au/bim-content/ or bimcontent.com/nero-tapware

What Was It Like Working on Nero Tapware’s BIM Content Library?

“Nero have done a commendable job in commissioning their BIM content library.

The Nero team have consistently sought the highest quality outcome at all times and been proactive in recognising the benefits of providing specifiers with a high quality BIM content resource. The extent of the Nero library across so many design options, and the fact it’s available in both Revit and AutoCAD formats, means it’s one the most extensive and valuable content libraries in the market today.

We’re excited to partner with Nero in the ongoing development of this library, and to have it available on BIMcontent.com. We know it’s going to be a valuable resource to many designers in creating their project designs and documentation.”
