Over 98% of large architecture firms in the U.S. have adopted BIM, and over 30% of small firms use it for some modeling and documentation." A BEP is a comprehensive document that outlines the processes and protocols for implementing BIM at a firm or for a specific project. What is a BIM execution plan?

The visual programming interface of Dynamo for Revit is enabling structural engineers with the tools to build structural models with minimal energy and make their own structural design tools. Basing on the architectural geometry they can retrieve a model data and create parametric based structural models to explore several design options.

Architecture Concept Drawing. An architecture concept drawing is a technical drawing of a building (or building project) that falls within the definition of architecture.

Without the dedication and proper execution of these documents, issues will likely arise when the project is finally executed. Why Are Specs Important?

On the left of this spectrum, you have those Design-Build projects that use bridging documents, lowest bidder selection, and a team that doesn’t work well together. The biggest problem with this model is that when you have an architect prepare bridging documents, you’ve just made all the big decisions without the input of the building team.
