The TETRA project DIMPROVENT developed innovative methods to improve the design and management of air-handling systems through the smart use of data and BIM. In this way, DIMPROVENT supports the construction sector in digitizing the design and management of air-handling systems. By combining BIM, smart data exchange, and user-friendly design tools, the project aims to improve collaboration, reduce errors, and enhance the energy performance of buildings.
TETRA-DIMPROVENT was a collaboration with companies and institutions in the sector:
