Means of egress
Checks key egress requirements, including occupant load, exits, exit separation, travel distance, exit and corridor width, door swing direction, stair and ramp geometry, and headroom clearance.
How it works
A four-step workflow, without leaving Revit.
-
General information
Codex BIM intelligently gathers the key building information required for fire code analysis. Information can be extracted directly from the BIM model, identified using intelligent detection tools, or collected through targeted user input. This creates the foundation for accurate and project specific code analysis.
-
Construction advisor
Based on the project information, the construction advisor identifies the applicable code articles, requirements, and construction types for the project. It compares relevant options, highlighting their key benefits and limitations, so designers can evaluate different approaches and select the most suitable one for their project.
-
Compliance checks
Codex BIM analyzes the model against the applicable Division B, part 3 requirements and generates clear, project specific compliance checks. Through intelligent tools and interactive visualizations, designers can quickly identify requirements, verify compliance, and understand potential issues.
Fire resistance rating
Identifies required fire resistance ratings and checks wall and door ratings directly from the BIM model, helping verify that required assemblies meet applicable code requirements.
Spatial separation
Analyzes exposing building faces, limiting distances, and permitted unprotected openings to help verify spatial separation requirements.
-
Customizable reports
Turn compliance results into the format that works best for your team. Codex BIM generates fully customizable reports tailored to the needs of professionals and firms. Results can be delivered as PDFs, visual analyses, embedded Revit information, comparison tables, or customizable checklists, making compliance documentation clear, accessible, and ready to share.
