Or even if such programs exist and students are let loose to model, render and animate to their heart content, once they enter the industry, they get quickly shown the ‘real’ ropes. A good modeller will have plenty of opportunities to model, but rule number one is, that the ‘drawings’ are priority, what consultancies get paid for.

Can you relate to the sentence:" we'll give you CAD files so that SHOULD reduce your work by half"? Savy CAD managers learned to deal with these issues and many company manuals had systems and processes in place. Even the majority of marketing people knew not to make frivolous delivery promises based on existing CAD data.

In addition to documents, photos, and videos, project data also includes Computer-Aided-Design files (CAD), Building Information Models (BIM), and spatial data captured using various 3D scanning methods. This allows you to automatically flag safety issues or areas of non-compliance, thus reducing project risk.
