One of the most notable shifts in professional practice is the wide acceptance and integration of Building Information Modeling (BIM). This class introduces a new way of thinking about deliverable documents and the collaborative framework that a parametrically virtual model is working to provide.
BIM is becoming an industry standard because of its intuitive interface and for its ability to facilitate opportunities to connect between the Architect, Consultants, and Contractor. BIM Simultaneously delivers real time working drawings and high quality spatial renderings to streamline the concepts to working drawings process.
This course will utilize Autodesk Revit and provide the basic skills to create and maintain a parametric building model to use for renderings, Working drawings, massing studies, and coordination of disciplines. Some of the program features that will be discussed are as follows:
• Navigation and View Management
• Maintaining Dynamic Drawings.
• Creating Building/Wall Sections & Details.
• Engaging External Resources.
• Creating Parametric “Families.”
• Maintaining Design Options.
• Maintaining Tables and Schedules.
• Maintaining Materials Library.
• Creating Conceptual Massing’s.
• Intro to Simultaneous Work Environments.
• Professional Annotation Applications.
• Intro to Consultant Interactions with the Model.
