SANTA MONICA, Calif., April 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ With building information modeling (BIM) workflows increasingly dominating the design, estimating, construction and facility management processes, BIM professionals need easy and immediate access to libraries and organizing principles. To satisfy this need, CDV Systems (CDV) and The Construction Specifications Institute (CSI) have announced a product integration connecting CSI s widely adopted construction industry organizing principles with cloud-based BIM libraries.

For the first time, applications that incorporate UNIFORMAT and ASTM E1557 have a central location to access standards information specific to the project phase from feasibility to turnover.
CSI and global standards organization ASTM International finalized an agreement to formally link CSI’s UNIFORMAT standards and ASTM International’s E1557 (UNIFORMAT II) standards within CROSSWALK, a gated web service of the CSI-owned Construction Information Network (CIN), a platform which integrates CSI classifications into construction technology platforms and data flows.
UNIFORMAT is CSI’s U.S. and Canadian standard for classifying building specifications, cost estimating and cost analysis used to provide consistency in the economic evaluation of building projects. The ASTM International E1557 standard, managed by ASTM’s performance of buildings committee (E06), expands descriptions of many existing elements.
