Through our HoloBIM (TM) software, we integrate three anti-seismic engineering fields: (a) Software (b) Education (c) Industry BIM SOFTWARE 1985: Apostolos Konstantinidis initiates the BIM approach long before it was globally adopted from the industry. Release of the Structural Design software “HoloSTATIKA” 2004: Release of “StereoSTATIKA” for the structural design of earthquake resistant buildings, reaching 3500 licenses in Greece. 2015: Release of “HoloBIM” which is a BIM and AI software including quantity take-off lists and cost estimation. PUBLICATIONS 1978: Three volumes titled “Reinforced concrete applications” are published, which sold in Greece more than 20000 copies each, becoming the best seller. 1994: The three volumes titled “Reinforced concrete applications according to new codes”. 2008: Volume A, titled “The Art of Construction and the Detailing”, of the book series “Earthquake Resistant Buildings”. 2012: Volume B, titled “Static and Dynamic Analysis according to Eurocodes”, of the same book series. INDUSTRY 1996: “Thorax” company is established by the shareholders of pi-SYSTEMS, aiming at the research and industrial implementation of innovative antiseismic technology. The goal of this company was to design machines that would perform the 3D formation of steel stirrups (stirrup machines), and the fabrication of many types of stirrup sections. 1999: The definite advantage of antiseismic thoraces is certified experimentally by the reinforced concrete laboratory of the National Technical University of Athens. 2000: Thoraces had been approved by the Greek Antiseismic Regulation authority. 2004: Next generation of earthquake resistant stirrups, Cellular stirrups, designed and patented to have absolute industrial accuracy for precasting purposes. Cellular Stirrups” (a) have not weak points and (b) secure the continuity flowing of tension or compression stresses.
