SketchUp Pro 2014 contains three new features that are specific to information modeling: The new release provides an easier way for users to participate in the information modeling process by ensuring that their objects and models-and the data connected to them-remain consistently identifiable throughout the BIM workflow. Since BIM is an increasingly important process for professionals in architecture, engineering and construction, Trimble has expanded SketchUp Pro’s interoperability with other commonly used tools and data. The new Product Catalogs feature speeds the task of finding specific manufacturers’ products-from windows to washing machines-letting users start their models with the exact items they intend to use.īuilding upon SketchUp Pro’s Information Modeling Foundation.Users can now upload 3-D models directly from their Web browsers, without first opening them in SketchUp, while the maximum size of uploadable models has been increased from 10 to 50 megabytes.

"With SketchUp 2014, we’re giving users better tools to easily access the models they need and to ensure those models add value throughout the information modeling process.” New 3-D Warehouse: Where Content is King “As SketchUp’s professional footprint expands, access to content and broad interoperability are vital issues to our customers," said Chris Keating, director of the Architecture Division within the Trimble Buildings Group.
SketchUp 2014 features major enhancements to SketchUp’s 3-D Warehouse-the world’s largest repository of free, high-quality, 3-D content-as well as new tools that improve the classification of design objects, tighten interoperability with other products used in Building Information Modeling (BIM) workflows, and make professional documentation more efficient. Trimble has released SketchUp 2014, the latest version of its popular 3-D modeling platform for architects, engineers, design and construction professionals, as well as members of the global maker community.
