For starters, you’re dealing with an old structure without CAD files and limited documentation. Thanks to lower hardware costs and direct connections between tools, the process of creating usable 3D models from photos or laser scans is easier than ever. A better design and coordination workflow .

The architectural plan neatly sets out the column’s centre point from two nearby, perpendicular grids. Then comes the eager BIM modeller and screams with joy as she overlays the see-through plans on her digital light-table: A discrepancy! The columns are not aligned on the two images, out by a bit.

This post attempts to outline how a project will develop (understanding there are exceptions) when considering multiple firms/models and attempting to keep each model aligned both in Revit's model environment and relative to the site location and survey information. They import your model Auto-Origin to Origin.

Ivana shares how Mace saved 50% of their time spent on coordination and reporting by using BIM 360 Document Management and Model Coordination. Background into integrated methodologies for tracking changes and model coordination review. How to overcome internal resistance around using 3D models for quantity takeoff.

My journal of work in Revit as part of a 600+ member architecture firm. As has been typical for the last couple of years Architects will mainly benefit from what are considered to be "platform" enhancements (because in reality theyre useful to everyone) but I would say are mostly driven by Architecture customers. dont think: Do Revit.

I had the good fortune to have Chuck Mies and Ed Deal from Autodesk in my office the other day and we were talking about sharing AutoCAD MEP data with a Revit Architecture model. Ed suggests individually exporting duct, pipe, cabletray, whatever to IFC, then importing those IFC into your Revit model.
