Mulcol Project Manager

You can structure and format the Project Book in any way you wish. You can use your choice of colours, add a company logo and possibly add a project image. Your company information is automatically copied to the Project Book, so please make sure that it is correct. To change your company information, go to ‘Account’ in the Data Manager main menu.

General settings

Under the ‘General settings’ tab, enter the Project Book’s name and an optional short description that will be used for archiving the Project Book. You are free to choose the text colour that will be used in the Project Book and the colours for the headers.

Cover page

On the left-hand side of the screen, you can see how the Project Book’s cover page will look based on the data you have entered and your choice of layout. If you have previously uploaded your company logo to your company information in the main account, you can display it on the cover page. Do you have an image of the project? If so, simply add it by clicking the ‘Add image’ button.

Table of contents

You do not have to worry about the table of contents; it is automatically generated based on the number of fire-resistant solutions and attachments that you add.

Project and contact details

You can enter the details of the project, the client and the party responsible for management and maintenance (if applicable) here. If you have already entered the details when creating a project in the Data Manager, you can simply copy them by linking the project data. If you do not wish to include the details in the Project Book, toggle the ‘Show’ button to off.

Solutions

Add the fire-resistant solution(s) that you have created and stored in your Favourites using the Multiselector here. To add solutions from the Multiselector, click the ‘Add solution(s)’ button. Click here for more information.

Last page

You can optionally use the toggle button to show your own address on the back of the Project Book. This address is copied from your company details in the main account. You can also change the colour used for the text and Project Book cover.

Once you have created solutions using the Multiselector, you can easily incorporate them in the Project Book. This is only possible if the solutions are stored in your Favourites.

Add a fire-resistant solution

If you want to add a separator page before displaying the Multiselector solutions in the Project Book, turn on the ‘Automatic separator page’ toggle button.

Clicking the ‘Add solution(s)’ button opens a pop-up window where you can easily retrieve the Multiselector solutions that you have stored in your Favourites.

Search for the right fire-resistant solution

You can also filter by name in the search field. Start typing in the search field and the solutions that match your entry appear in the overview.

Select and Deselect All

Select or deselect all solutions at once.

Add solution

Select the solution(s) that you want to add to the logbook and click the ‘Add’ button.

Overview of added solutions

The selected fire-resistant solutions that will be loaded into the Project Book are now displayed in the overview under the Solutions tab. You can view the solutions here and change the name if you wish, or remove them from the Project Book.

To add an extra separator page, attachment or solution page, click ‘Add page’ at the top right or the button at the bottom right on the Last Page.

Separator page

You create a new chapter by adding a separator page. The title that you enter is automatically included in the Project Book index. In contrast to the function for automatically adding separator pages under ‘Solutions’ and ‘Attachment(s)’, you can add extra text here by using the ‘Description’ field. You can customise the style here by selecting a page and text colour.

Attachment

Would you like to add other documents, photos or information to the Project Book? If so, use the function for adding an attachment. You can easily add files from the Library in the Project Manager or from your own desktop.

Solution(s)

Does the project have multiple building structures or layers? If so, you can organise the Project Book clearly and present your fire-resistant solutions in separate sections. To do so, you simply add an extra ‘Solution(s)’ sheet.

You can easily store the Project Book, download it as a PDF file or send it directly by email. You can edit the Project Book at any time if you wish to make any subsequent changes.

Save and share the Project Book

When you have finished formatting your Project Book, you can save it and generate a PDF file. This may take a few minutes depending on the size of the Project Book.

Once this process is finished, you can download the Project Book to your desktop as a PDF file or send it directly by email to your contacts.

Edit the project book

You can edit the Project Book at any time. If you do so, remember that any versions of the Project Book that you have previously downloaded or shared by email are no longer up-to-date.
