We are happy to announce that version 23.10 of Stabicad was released on the 9th of October 2023.
The following is a summary of the main new features included in this release and the benefits that come with it.
Highlights
- Clashes between duct, pipes or cable trays with other elements can now be resolved with a horizontal bypass.
- You can now directly upload your native Revit file to your specified Trimble Connect project with the Advanced Revit Publisher.
Stabicad for Revit
- Clashes between duct, pipes and cable trays with other elements, which can be both MEP or reference elements, can now be resolved with a horizontal bypass.
After selecting the crossing elements and specifying the cutting points, there are several options to solve the crossing in the best way possible:
- Passing the element on the right or left side
- Specify the clash tolerance between the elements
- Specify the horizontal offset
- Specify the angles of the solution
- You can now directly upload your native Revit file to your specified Trimble Connect project with the Advanced Revit Publisher.
- The feature can be found in StabiTools - Setup, Upload model to Connect. There are two options to upload your model, as a native Revit file(.rvt) or convert to trimbim(.trb) for the best performance.
Stabicad for Revit | Mechanical → Ventilation
- The ventilation system names and classifications are now according to CIBSE standards, more specifically the System Extract air has now the system classification Return air.
- The value for Maximum Air Flow and Minimum Air Flow was not correctly set. Type and instance parameters were mixed in behaviour. As a result of the implemented solution, the behaviour is as following:
- Change in Edit Article → Instance parameter updated
- Change in Type parameter → No other changes
- Change in Instance parameter → Edit article updated
Stabicad for Revit | Mechanical → Mechanical Diagrams
- The lines in the mechanical diagram are now splitted correctly when a symbol is placed. Earlier there were gaps around the symbol which needed to be manually corrected.
Stabicad for Revit | Electrical
- We have updated the 3D representation of the Potential equalisation symbol (Central Facilities\Medical Earth) present in the Palette Center.
StabiBASE
- In the case of a Named User license, the License Details overview, accessed from Tools - License Details, now shows the available features in the same way as previous local or network licenses. All possible features are shown together with the availability.

Trimble MEP makes Building Information Models (BIM) a reality by delivering solutions that transform disconnected workflows between stakeholders into a coordinated, constructible and actionable building model. To ensure a building is constructed in the most efficient way, the Trimble Constructible Process goes beyond BIM by creating models that use actual manufacturer content, allow for prefabrication and full clash detection, connect stakeholders to coordinate in real-time and bring the model directly from the computer to the field. This process optimizes the entire design, build and operate lifecycle.
