The long overdue third instalment of my ‘The role of PDFs in BIM’ trilogy Let me start with a long-winded explanation on, how this post is not supposed to be an argument based on the question of ‘why would one want to import one (or hundreds) of PDF file(s) into any working BIM model?’. Now, can I get on with exploring PDFs in BIM models?

That said, BIM has been preoccupied with 3D visualization to the extent that many/most feel that Revit, Archicad, et al are all that’s needed to implement BIM. An ontology enables replicable processes, reusable data, information sharing, low cost of decision support, etc. information abundance. “Big Data” is here.

We should've stuck with pen & paper until a tool like Revit or Archicad or Tri-Forma came along. I simply cannot beleive how painful it is to manipulate "stuff" in 2D CAD versus an object modeler like Revit. Sorry this isn't much of an informational post, but I'm somewhat frustrated.
