Masonry iQ is a Autodesk® Revit® plugin that supports masonry products and allows the user to create masonry specific wall types. A wide variety of custom bond patterns can be generated through the user interface. These patterns are analyzed and mapped to walls accounting for proper layout and bonding at corners and openings. Non-modular layouts will be flagged and proper field cuts are represented in elevation. Wall sections are automatically generated showing proper coursing and bond beam locations. Bond beams also generate sweeps for coordination. Three different corner joins (mechanical bond, miter and squared off) are supported and adjusted for proper layout. Single and multi wythe walls are supported. A 3D viewer in the user interface assists in visualizing bond patterns and corner configurations.
