Engineer hangers and seismic restraints with code-grade certainty.
Fabrik VMR places hangers, ranks supports, and exports reviewer-ready spool sheets straight from Revit — every recommendation traceable to MSS SP-69 and ASCE 7-22, every AI tool call audited and engineer-approved.

Platform capabilities
Nine workflows, one auditable model.
Each capability ties back to a code requirement and a hand-calc anchor. No magic. Engineers stay in control, AI stays on the hook.
Hanger placement engine
MSS SP-69 Table 4 max-spacing applied per pipe size and material — clevis, band, and rod selections placed automatically along every run.
Smart support ranking
Ranks clevis, band, rod, and spring hangers using SDC, temperature, and vibration inputs aligned to ASCE 7 §13.3.
Audited load calculations
Dead, operating, and seismic load resolutions delivered within ±1% of hand-calc, every step traceable to inputs.
AI-assisted recommendations
Claude-powered tool calls suggest support strategies; the engineer always approves, and every prompt-response pair is logged.
QA/QC rule engine
MSS SP-69 and ASCE 7 violations flagged inline. Export is blocked until every flag is dismissed with engineer rationale.
Optimistic locking
30-minute TTL with admin override prevents two engineers from stomping the same assembly mid-edit.
Fabrication export
Programmatic PDF spool sheets and CSV/XLSX schedules generated from the same audited model used in review.
Revit add-on bridge
HMAC-signed webhook IPC with the Revit add-on. Mock fallback keeps engineers productive when the add-on is offline.
3D viewer

How it works
From Revit model to fabrication-ready in three deliberate steps.
- 01
Connect Revit
Install the VMR add-on, authenticate, and the HMAC-signed bridge starts streaming model assemblies into the workspace. No manual export.
- 02
Run audited calcs
Place hangers, rank supports, and resolve dead, operating, and seismic loads. Every AI tool call is logged and engineer-approved.
- 03
Export reviewer-ready docs
Generate PDF spool sheets and CSV/XLSX schedules from the same audited model. QA/QC violations gate the export until resolved.

Ship hangers your reviewer signs the first time.
Sign in to spin up a project, connect Revit, and run your first audited calculation pack. Mock-bridge mode keeps you productive while the add-on is in setup.
