Fluency is probably below 1% of all the people that work in the AEC industry and deal with its information day in and out. CAD drawings never become universally accepted contractual documents and the risk/liability issues of that ‘language’ are significantly less difficult than what making models ‘real’ would be.

I also accept, that the internet made the numbers of applicants these guys must deal with almost impossible to handle, but I refuse to agree to have millions of unemployed treated as idiots because of this. Maybe they should be forced to list at the bottom of their ads “We are just the gatekeepers to our paymasters.

I'm writing about both the process and the software. You might also consider Bluebeam PDF Revu CAD as a more robust plot/markup/review tool. For people comfortable with Revit much can be done directly in the software to manage this. This is the PC version's icon. I wish his comments weren't valid.

These are very valid questions that many CAD Managers and Owners are asking themselves lately. Of course the answer can be different for everyone of them depending on individual needs and uses of the software, but I would like to offer up what I see as the big ticket items that make ABS so appealing.

At the time they were advised by a particular software provider how to get into BIM and that quickly saw them part with enough cash to purchase a dozen of BIM-suites and train a matching dozen of BIM modellers by the same provider. She insisted though, that I give her the credit for where it’s due, I obliged.

This years release I would also say has a bent towards addressing issues that large projects (and therefore mostly large firms) have to deal with. Revamp of CAD export dialog, most importantly settings are stored in the project now, so no more custom export files, except to define specific standards to be used for different clients/jobs.

The important thing to keep in mind for collaborating with your architectural clients is communicating what they can expect of you and developing new procedures in house to deal with a single Revit project file instead of multiple DWGs or DGNs. You will want to know what the software is capable of and what it can not do.

In a sense, because BIM contains more information that is structured more efficiently than traditional product like CAD files, spreadsheets and drawings. Some have concerns that if they provide their work in an editable format (whether BIM or CAD) some-one will make changes to their work without their knowledge and/or permission.

Filters will let us deal with that reasonably well, assuming the content is organized well. OpEd Videos.

We can’t rely on this mapping being delivered through the geometrical part of BIM (CAD) since many systems and products are not modelled geometrically at all. It has a construction phase focus, and so has no homes for the specification of high-level objects such as Complexes, so it can’t deal with early project stages.

Well right out of the gate, if you want to implement new software and change processes, you'll have some things to nail down and a lot of issues to deal with. 1) Sell the idea of changing software to management Everybody's boss is different but here are some ideas based on ABS. Here's an example.
