Building information modeling (BIM) is set to change all that, its revolutionary goal since the 1970s when it was first proposed. How can universal access to model viewing change the process? Our teams use the BIM models for collaboration and communication. We use BIM models for collaboration between disciplines.

Just because I do not enjoy modeling with Revit, I can keep an eye on what is happening in the industry, especially while the authors of my tool of choice are merrily basking in their achievements having ‘invented’ the ‘Year of the stair’. A reasonable ‘stick’ from the software supplier for the naughty users? Nor is it terribly new.

The final assignment of this programme consists of modelling and documenting a house according to a chosen construction principle. In the programme, students work with modelling software from Autodesk, among others, and specifically the Autodesk AEC Collection which includes Revit, Civil 3D, Navisworks and AutoCAD.

Quantity takeoffs within civil 3D allow the designer to easily create quantity takeoffs based on the design model. Design changes to the model are reflected when the quantity takeoff report is run at any point in the design. By performing quantity takeoffs on the model errors may be reduced.

In the attempt of fixing the industry in one big swoop is, the workflow of producing and managing shop-drawings by numerous construction participants based on design documentation in a pretty archaic way seems to be generally overlooked. The process is linear and mostly broken over disciplines.

AutoCAD is an incredible tool, helping architects, engineers and design teams to create precise 2D and 3D models with ease. To share information from AutoCAD with other stakeholders, most design teams will convert their files into PDFs or other read-only formats. However, using read-only files complicates the feedback process.

I started in 2015 and back then, we were collating individual models from the architectural side, sending those out to our consultants, and then down the line as it gets to the construction side. For example, when we worked on SoFi, 20+ models needed to be coordinated and designed. With modern workflows, the process has changed a lot.

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." Why assume that there is no value in creating a model of the MEP scope of work even if the architect doesnt use Revit?

No matter what software you are using, they fall into three general categories: digital drafting, object oriented and parametric.
