This approach is somewhat surprising considering that in most contemporary construction contracts PDF’s as the digital representations of drawings have often higher standing than model files or even DWGs. Why are there no more efforts made to guide PDF users through thousands of drawings by the originators?

In the interim, BIM will be relegated to 3d visualization and an organic growth output of 2D CAD, vs. the process of efficiently managing the built environment supported by digital technology. The entire design and construction industry needs to rethink Lean in terms of overhauling entire project delivery models.

I’d done some very light Revit work in my high school CAD classes because that was when Revit 1.0 I was initially put in charge of taking all of their standard 2D models, and their library of details, and turning them into 3D details. Almost all questions can be answered in the model.
