Planning with Safety and Workflow

With our solutions, you can “plan with confidence” and comply with regulatory requirements while taking product-specific requirements into account. In addition, our solutions make the workflow not only clear, but also intuitive and simple.

PLANNING WITH CONFIDENCE

Everything considered, everything accounted for

There are many regulatory requirements to consider when performing a technical calculation. And these can vary significantly depending on the specific application. With us, you can plan with confidence, because our solutions ensure that you meet the relevant regulatory requirements while also taking into account the product-specific requirements that are already integrated into Dendrit CALHYDRA and Dendrit STUDIO.

A key element of technical calculations is feedback on the calculation basis and results. The message and information system in Dendrit CALHYDRA and Dendrit STUDIO offers far more than a traditional message window. It distinguishes between four message types: Success, Note, Warning, and Error. Our expert system performs over 500 checks: ranging from verifying drawing content and technical calculation parameters to providing informative installation and operating instructions for products. Thanks to our industry partners, the system references applicable standards, offers suggested solutions, and provides further information – for example, via direct links to YouTube videos. All messages can be documented in the Hydraulikreport.

After a successful calculation, all relevant calculation parameters and results for a selected flow path are documented in a combination of a pressure balance and a section-by-section table. This combination fulfills all regulatory requirements for documenting the calculation results used to determine pipe diameters for both service lines and circulation systems.

A detailed list of equipment pressure losses along the flow path, textual references to the design basis, and a list of individual resistance coefficients for each section in tooltips, etc., allow you to examine the calculation results in detail. On this basis, the contractor can perform a plausibility check of the Dendrit pipe network calculation in accordance with generally accepted engineering standards (g.a.e.s.). By the way: You can download a free guide to the plausibility check here: Guide to the Plausibility Check

You can also use other displays – such as the characteristic curves of components or the settings of individual valves – to ensure traceability.

We ensure the highest level of planning reliability through our close collaboration with the industry partners integrated into our solutions and by utilizing their product data.

Our solution provides the highest level of planning reliability. The preconfigured product data and manufacturer recommendations for hydraulically accurate calculations are complemented by consideration of the installation instructions and coordinated accessories. The coordinated selection of accessories ensures a form-fit piping network, taking into account special fittings and their hydraulic effects.

Building Services Toolbar – The Common Thread in Your Project

Dendrit Workflow

Keep track of your project at all times with our building services toolbar. The work views in Dendrit CALHYDRA and Dendrit STUDIO are tailored to their respective workflows and, with customized interfaces and commands, provide a consistent thread that guides you through your project at all times. You decide whether to strictly follow the workflow from left to right – or whether to skip steps along the way, for example, to perform analyses or generate printouts even before the project is complete.
