Revit | BIM | can be used as a powerful tool for the daily tasks in structural engineering. This class will transport a young student from the 80s into brave new, data rich, object orientated future. He will tackle the challenge of transforming a laser scanned pumphouse, into a fictional cliff hanging Sydney harbour restaurant – based on an IStructE chartership examination question from the 80's. (It’s a not a super tower, more bread and butter engineering, but without a pencil & paper calc pad to hand).

Case Studies & Lessons Learnt from a Design Manager & Head Contractor
Session 10
The AEC industry in the US has changed dramatically over the last 5 years in regards to integrated project delivery and the use of BIM and VDC throughout the project delivery and follow on operations of the facilities. We'll discuss the factors driving innovation throughout the industry, approaches to various challenges faced, current emerging trends, proven outcomes, and a glimpse of what's in store for the future.
Session 11
We'll provide updates on related initiatives in other parts of the world, particularly in Europe, where the ANZRS sibling (dRS) is gaining widespread traction. We'll also discuss what's in store for ANZRS over the short and long term.
1. Learn more about the value of content standards and good content itself for the supply chain. 2. Learn more about how to apply ANZRS to a project, where half-decent object libraries may already exist. 3. Learn how to use content standards to create efficient, robust objects that are fir-for-purpose. 4. Learn how to verify ANZRS compliance of Revit families you've created. 5. Learn about the future of ANZRS with respect to other regions and software platforms.
Session 12
Session 13
Planning and designing projects today involve the management of data between multiple Revit models, between multiple design disciplines and across multiple office. This work shop will demonstrate, using the actual Lab participants participation, how the use of a sophisticated database application can streamline this process. It will show how this process can be more accurate, and more efficient while at the same time making the planning and design of a facility more transparent.
Key Learning Outcomes: 1. Understand the need for a centralized repository for all project information. 2. Understand how to leverage the design model to be an intelligent design tool while understanding that there is a more effective tool to manage large quantities of data. 3. Understand how to get the entire project team involved in the planning and design process. Realizing that this will lead to better accuracy and greater efficiency while decreasing the time it takes to coordinate projects. Tags: Third Party Tools & API Level: All Levels
Session 14
Key Learning Outcomes: 1. Understand why the builder/contractor needs to be involved with the development of the Project BMP from day one and during the design process. 2. The key principles in establishing Field BIM in construction using BIM360 & ZUUSE. 3. Where current technology is taking the management of the construction business.
Tags: Business Strategy/ Leadership, General (multi-discipline), BIM Management Level: Advanced
Session 15
This workshop will demonstrate how to use Elumtools (an add-on for Revit from the makers of AGI32) in Revit to achieve Daylight Modelling with point by point calculation by utilizing the architectural model and lighting families.
1. Good understanding of Elumtools 2. Ability to produce point by point lighting calculations inside a BIM model
3. Good understanding of how link models and lighting families are utilized in Revit MEP
