Patent number: 10628534Abstract: A method for updating a computer aided design model of a building is disclosed. The model of the building may include at least one barrier and at least one penetrating item. A barrier may have fire resistance properties and include a passage to accommodate passage of a penetrating item, with firestop product information to maintain the fire resistance properties of the barrier. The method may be carried out by defining a universe of one or more barriers that have fire resistance properties; analyzing a computer aided design model of a building to identify an intersection of a penetrating item and a barrier that is within the defined universe; analyzing the computer aided design model of the building for fire resistance properties corresponding to the barrier.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 2015Date of Patent: April 21, 2020Assignee: Hilti AktiengesellschaftInventors: Oliver Glockner, Matthias Ebneter, Thomas Schmidt, Daniel Carcedo Blanco, David Crawford, René Gries

Patent number: 9898705Abstract: A method of automated handheld tool task verification is disclosed. In one embodiment, at least one operating parameter for performing a task is received at a handheld tool. It is then verified at the handheld tool that it is configured with the at least one operating parameter. The handheld tool then generates data verifying that the task was performed in accordance with the at least one operating parameter.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2012Date of Patent: February 20, 2018Assignee: Trimble Inc.Inventors: Kent Kahle, Pat Bohle, Robert Painter, Markus Messmer, Oliver Glockner, Angela Beckenbauer, Till Cramer, Andreas Winter

Patent number: 9510150Abstract: In a method of integrating position information including: position data of an object that will be embedded in a material at a worksite is determined. The position data of the object is recorded, in an information management system. The position data is used to update a record at the information management system, where the record indicates that the object is an embedded object and the position data of the object includes a position of the embedded object. The position of the embedded object is conveyed from information management system to the to a handheld tool at the worksite. The position of the embedded object is displayed on a display device integrated with the handheld tool.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 2015Date of Patent: November 29, 2016Assignee: Trimble Navigation LimitedInventors: Kent Kahle, Pat Bohle, Reinhard Waibel, Markus Messmer, Oliver Glockner, Angela Beckenbauer, Till Cramer, Andreas Winter
