While lapping up the free Christmas atmosphere of one of the better venues of downtown Abu Dhabi, I was introduced to the ‘Next Generation BIM 360 Platform’ of Autodesk, designed to connect the Entire construction process into a seamless ‘something’. And BIM is going on the back seat big time. There is nothing wrong with the concept.

‘What is BIM?’ – is probably the most off-putting intro question to anyone listening to a BIM presentation that a speaker can pull up, yet it comes up time after time at BIM conferences and lectures. I used to like the word ‘approach’ for it, being a ‘language’, ‘a set of tools and processes’.

I written many, many words in my blog and upset at one point or other almost every major player (design or construction firm, software developer and HR provider) that there is. Why do you ever settle for AutoCAD? I made enemies and secret admirers. I get open treats and couched support messages. Let me make some guesses, why that is.

BIM If you are wanting to switch to Revit Systems because you are feeling pressure to complete a BIM model, Keep in mind, nobody can agree to what the Hell a BIM model is.

I was musing about a recent conversation where one guys position was that BIM is hype, unnecessary and worse really just being foisted upon our profession in a scheme to get more money from "us". It seems to me this notion of using Revit (BIM) and "us" isnt all that different. Meanwhile, autodesk provides dismal documentation.

Defining the requirements for documenting exiting are naturally going to affect the success of any solution we try to provide. Egress Path Options.

When Revit Systems was released in 2006, the essence of Autodesks marketing commentary was, "this is new software so it probably doesnt make sense to tackle a project with it unless the architecture team is using Revit too." We will still be able to compare our model against 2D documentation by importing various 2D CAD views into the model.

Revit Systems debuted early this year giving MEP engineers a third choice of CAD technology to use; it may have also caused a bit of confusion on what software is really the best for any given firm. No matter what software you are using, they fall into three general categories: digital drafting, object oriented and parametric.
