DDL (Digital Drylayout) is a new online tool that enables a design-oriented, digital layout of real existing natural stone slabs before the costly and irreversible cutting of the material. DDL allows planners and designers to maintain full control over the material selection, cutting, and installation of natural stones on floors, walls or facades.
DDL is free for architects and can be used with any natural stone. From the first design idea to the final acceptance of natural stone surfaces, the entire process is documented in a BIM-compliant manner and allows cost savings of up to 20% in planning and material costs. DDL sets new standards in sustainability when dealing with natural stone: the designer has full control over material consumption and the digital inspection significantly reduces travel expenses.
