A suite of nine construction applications covering the entire construction process will launch under the new ElecoSoft brand at this month’s Ecobuild. Applications include the 3D timber frame, floor and staircase design software Consultec, tender preparation tool Bidcon and the home renovation and self-build design tool Arcon. Project management tool Asta Powerproject, used by around 90% of major UK contractors, will also relaunch as part of the brand family. www.eleco.com
Autodesk Formit is a free iPad app that allows building designers to conceptualise and analyse design ideas and integrate them into BIM workflow at the earliest stages of a project. Users can sketch out designs on their device, create forms from a gallery of shapes and manipulate them, then share them via the Autodesk 360 cloud-based collaboration service. Designers can also use it to track shadows and also address easement and property line issues. www.autodeskformit.com
