Software documentation tends to be a bit dry, too often a very literal, "Un-checking this turns the feature off". It was meant to make it simple to alter the appearance of our model to be more in sync with what a structural engineer wants to see. Ducts for example, he wrote, dont show up when the architectural discipline is chosen.

Autodesk Vasari Beta 1 is a slimmed down version of Revit 2013 focusing on conceptual modeling and early analysis. It is meant for architectural designers and energy analysis who are not necessarily using Revit. Some firms have been leery of putting their projects design data in software that is in a "lab experiment" state.

The study centered upon the development of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in the UK construction industry and its pontential affect on the role of the client’s construction manager (CM). For example, the use of the BIM model to produce cost and time estimates has been identified as a paradigm shift (Gier 2008).

It''s been 14 years since Revit formally began knocking on the doors of architectural firms. The first response quite often was, "We''ve already got {insert your software here}, no thanks"!

When Revit Systems was released in 2006, the essence of Autodesks marketing commentary was, "this is new software so it probably doesnt make sense to tackle a project with it unless the architecture team is using Revit too." We dont have to assume the burden of modelling the architecture or structure to get something out of the effort.
