BIM objects are much more than just graphical representations. All BIM objects have properties, and most also have geometries (although some do not, for example a paint finish). The specification is part of the project BIM, and objects live in the specification. ‘A new generation of specifiers is being empowered by BIM.

Project teams traditionally designed using 2D drawings, leaving room for misinterpretation and error between project collaborators. This siloed process also meant drawings could only be reviewed one at a time, leading to pre-construction delays. But, when it came to construction on site, manual and paper-based workflows were the norm.

In the end, they are ‘just’ a software provider, successful at what they are doing, why can’t I just let them be. My biggest problem is not that Revit is a ‘dog of a software’. 3/ information management tool providers (unlike in manual drafting days) got given an unprecedented opening to influence a globally active industry.

First off (before you get upset at my comments) You guys are doing great work for Revit and BIM!!! I completely understand the desire to replicate your graphic standards and the like but in-place families mostly detract from a BIM, rather than add to them. especially as documents became a secondary deliverable to the coordinated BIM.
