The Construction Software and Building Systems Group

 

ElecoSoft® Exhibits for the First Time at Ecobuild 2013

 

 

ElecoSoft®, as a brand encapsulating the software interests of Eleco PLC, and representing an international Group of software companies with common interests, which develop construction, management, engineering and visualization software used at different stages in the construction project lifecycle, is pleased to announce that it will be exhibiting for the first time at Ecobuild 2013 Exhibition, (Stand No. N426) held at ExCeL London, between 5-7 March 2013.

 

Since its launch eight years ago, Ecobuild has become the biggest exhibition and marketing platform internationally for sustainable design, construction and the built environment, with over 57,000 attendees visiting last year from around the world.

 

The ElecoSoft® brand, under which trade a number of internationally respected and differentiated software products and businesses, provides software applications to help its clients better manage different stages of their construction project lifecycle, and by so doing, deliver greater efficiency and improvement to the management of projects. 

 

ElecoSoft® develops and supplies innovative ideas and software and services with cutting edge technology, to the project management, construction, pharmaceutical, timber engineering and design, 3D visualisation, data compression, site control, stair design, flooring and marketing sectors principally in the UK, Scandinavia and Germany. It sells to 51 countries through a global network of 11 subsidiary offices in Sweden, Germany and the UK, and has more than 41 distributors worldwide.

 

Addressing the challenges faced across the construction lifecycle from visualisation to site management, ElecoSoft® will be presenting the following software companies and their products to the industry:

 

VISUALISATION

This has become a common element in the design of construction projects. Our visualisation technologies will play a key role in the future construction as we lead into the era of Building Information Modelling (BIM).

Companies/Products: Arcon visual architecture; O2c, Grand Designs 3D and ESIGN

 

CAD / DESIGN

ARCON Visual Architecture is a CAD application dedicated to designing building exteriors and interiors. Detailed plans can be rapidly drawn while cross-sections and side elevations can be generated automatically on screen.

 

StairCon is designed to meet the needs of staircase manufacturers by providing the best possible support for a simplified and cost-effective production of stairs, from sales to production. StairCon is user friendly, making it fast to design standard stair shapes.

 

ENGINEERING

StatCon Structural Post & Beam is designed to facilitate the process of post and beam construction in wood and steel, in accordance with the EuroCode.  EuroCode compliance makes StatCon quickly adaptable to new markets within the European community.

 

Eleco M@trix timber management is an application that can link Consultec Framing and StairCon, into one environment.  Used from project inception to completion and delivery to site, the .NET developed solution can control estimating, order processing and invoicing using central data source.

 

ESTIMATION

BidCon contains a very large database of reference books that are directly linked to price lists. It gives direct information about time and cost and it is easy to download into spreadsheets, either in detail and/or with our Compound Element.

 

With fully integrated Customer Resource Management (CRM) module, Eleco M@trix combines all department and management data to provide real-time reporting.

 

After the tender process is completed and the project is awarded, the challenge must begin with calculations and schedule planning.  PlanCon creates an overview of the entire project and provides control over time, cash flow and resources.

 

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Project Management Software plays a pivotal role in meeting the demands of all sizes of projects.  Asta Powerproject was the project management software of choice for the London Bridge and The Shard.  Asta Development provides a complete range of project, portfolio and resource management solutions for managing any size and any type of project.

 

SITE MANAGEMENT

SiteControl allows for the collation of everything concerning an on-site project activity into one place. The site diary enables you to record daily activities such as weather conditions, labour force, plant equipment and photos of site activities, among other things.

 

ElecoBuild®

In addition and for the third year running, ElecoBuild® 's Bell & Webster Concrete Ltd will be exhibiting in the British Precast Pavilion on Stand N1154. showcasing its Bell & Webster RoomSolutions®, its structural fast build method of construction. On display will be an update on its recent projects and examples of how the RoomSolutions® system can save time on site, further reducing carbon emissions, waste and noise and improving health and safety.

 

Executive Chairman, John Ketteley, said:

"Exhibiting at Ecobuild this year represents something new and exciting for the Group as a whole.  We have never before assembled, as ElecoSoft®, such a comprehensive range of leading international construction-facing products, services and companies.  I am delighted to see that our portfolio of companies both service and gain exposure to the whole of the construction life-cycle and I look forward to the Ecobuild Exhibition assisting us in our marketing efforts to win more customers and extend our presence and footprint into new and existing markets".
