BIM for Seniors

DebunkTheBIM

Yet it is a language that only a small percentage of the industry speaks. Now, many in the industry will be quick to dispute the first claim. After all, most construction contracts are still based on drawings and there is a belief that ‘we build off drawings’.

Happy 40th Graphisoft!

DebunkTheBIM

When I started with ArchiCAD some 27 years ago, I did not think we’d grow old together. I learned to use the blimming thing and added to the knowledge over and over, wore the badge of the weirdo ArchiCAD user with pride.

PDFs and BIM: A trilogy of posts investigating what the PDF format’s role may be in strategies transitioning the industry to BIM? First part: PDFs within current AEC – Important yet neglected?

DebunkTheBIM

PDF as a digital file-format is generally frowned upon by those in charge of creation and management of project information within the AEC industry. This is a very valid point as the quantities drawings and consequently PDFs are produced at are totally out of synch with what is reasonable or manageable.
