Now, many in the industry will be quick to dispute the first claim. Over the next couple of weeks, we will be exploring model navigational tools offered by Revizto, Navisworks and Archicad (BIMx). BIM had become the main communication vehicle for AEC. Yet it is a language that only a small percentage of the industry speaks.
