People with successful careers possess many admirable qualities, but one common denominator that these folks have is their willingness to push themselves out of their comfort zone. Even as a kid, I was interested in architecture and design. That has empowered me to learn more, get out of my comfort zone, and grow professionally.

The quantity of area you want for a pool table depends on the table’s model and the lead you apply. A normal rule pool model cue is 57-58 inches long, so it allows you to consider what you will apply. The pool table gets in three regular models; everyone needs another shape cabin; a 7′ bar box design table will be 3.5′

Always Be Phase Aware In every project file your modeled components have a phase created and a phase demolished parameter whether you like it or not. If you place a model component in a view that is set to the New Construction phase (under View Properties), that component automatically gets placed in the New Construction phase.

Once an as-built model is done you might want to archive a copy of the model just incase the design scope changes and you have to start all over again with a clean as-built.

We have one model that was started in Revit before we knew any of the limitations of Revit. The task was to demolish a 1980s addition, restoring the building to its original design, and then adding our own additions. The model is not clean enough to develop construction documents so we have passed along that task to another architect.

Some food for thought: Could it (read that as "it will") be better to let the walls be modeled as they will be built (with dead spaces in between), rather than using in-place walls that simply mimic old methodologies, like CAD or Hand drawn lines filled with poche or hatching? It is more suited to a model that is about graphics.
