Bentley PlantSpace is based on JSpace, a proven and time-tested object orientated technology, and MicroStation, a proven and tested 3D CAD engine. The resulting models are DGN based, and can be referenced to any other DGN file produced by the hundreds of applications provided by Bentley or 3rd party.
Bentley PlantSpace utilizes a component based storage system called Model Control System (MCS) which allows for a designer to check out what is required to work on and no more. The MCS system also allows for work sharing between offices around the world.
Bentley PlantSpace supports the creation of orthographic drawings (plans, elevations, and sections), automatic Isometrics drawings from either ALIAS ISOGEN or PlantSpace Isometrics.
Object Reporter is a reporting tool which enables you to generate bills of material (BOM) and other related reports from the 3D CAD models created with PlantSpace software.
SpecMaker provides an interface for the administrator to control what piping components can be placed for any given size, reducing errors in the design.
