Four different configurations are available, including freestanding and wall-mounted configurations of both the Spaceshade® Max and Spaceshade® Lux designs.  The Revit objects can be [downloaded](https://kensingtonsystems.co.uk/resources)[directly ](https://kensingtonsystems.co.uk/resources)[from our website](https://kensingtonsystems.co.uk/resources).  ## What is Building Information Modelling? Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a digital process designed to facilitate the creating, sharing and managing of information in a construction project, across the entire project lifecycle. In simple terms, it uses technology to make communication easier and smoother between the many different stakeholders involved. This includes the creation of digital models for the design, construction and management of the building or infrastructure being constructed. You can find out more about [the concepts, standards and applications of BIM here](https://www.thenbs.com/knowledge/what-is-building-information-modelling-bim). ## The Benefits of Spaceshade® Revit Models Our Revit models have been developed to make incorporating Spaceshade® canopies into projects as easy as possible. Free to download and use along with 2D CAD files, we offer architects a range of innovative, modern, canopy designs. Spaceshade® canopies include a number of design and safety features, including - Integrated gutters and downpipes - for a clean modern look and easy maintenance - A certified non-fragile roof - for safety and peace of mind - No exposed bolts or fixings - for safety and style.
