WHAT IS BIM: BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING EXPLAINED

Architectural BIM

The architecture and construction industries are changing fast. Clients expect speed, precision, and smart design. At the same time, project teams need better tools to manage growing complexity. Traditional 2D drawings and even 3D models are no longer enough.

REVIT FAMILY CREATION FOR MANUFACTURERS: TYPES, PARAMETERS AND SERVICES

Sofa and chair Revit family created for a furniture manufacturer

A Revit family is not a 3D model of a chair. It looks like one on screen, which is exactly why briefs go wrong and quotes come back three times apart.

Inside the file there is a size catalogue, a set of parameters, materials that report themselves to a schedule, and rules about what happens when somebody stretches the thing. That is what an architect downloads from a manufacturer website. Plain geometry gets deleted about five minutes after it lands in the model.

AUTODESK REVIT: TOP 5 OUTSTANDING FEATURES FOR BIM PROJECTS

Revit 3D Model of a Building

Anyone who has spent time in the world of architecture and construction has at some point heard of the terms ‘Building Information Modeling’ and ‘Autodesk Revit’ being used in the same sentence. And that’s hardly surprising – after all, BIM allows architects to digitally visualize objects with the accuracy of the real environment. No other technology has been as successful in getting building performance insights before construction, reducing risk, improving worker efficiency, and getting better design quality – all at the same time.

REVIT MODELING: 5 BENEFITS FOR FURNITURE MANUFACTURERS

Benefits of Revit Families for Furniture Makers

Today, the manufacturing processes of many industries are being rapidly digitized. And the furniture industry is no exception. Manufacturers are already using CAD services actively, which allows them to streamline their product development. However, there’s another technology that opens even more possibilities for furniture makers, and it’s Revit modeling. Read more

POINT CLOUD TO BIM: THE SCAN TO BIM PROCESS, LOD AND COST

Revit model of an existing house rebuilt from a laser scan

A renovation starts backwards. The building is standing right there, and the drawings either do not exist or date from 1978 and lie about where the walls are.

Scanning solves half of that. It gives you millions of measured points and no idea what any of them mean. Turning those points into a model somebody can build from is the other half, and it is a person doing the work, not a button.

REVIT FOR ARCHITECTURE: 7 BENEFITS COMPARED TO OTHER BIM SOFTWARE

Autodesk Revit for architects: Advantages

What’s the big deal about Revit for architecture? Well, it’s like Mcdonald’s for the food industry or Nike for shoe one. When it occurred in 1997, it brought a real breakthrough into architecture, engineering, and constructions on so many levels. First and foremost, it has revolutionized the approach the building specialists use to interact and run the modeling workflow. Plus, this brand new visualization opportunity needs additional accolades.

3D PRINTING OF REVIT MODELS: 5 USES IN FURNITURE MAKING

Printing 3D models from Revit: Usages in furniture production

To survive in the competition, furniture manufacturers should focus on customization in their industry. Otherwise, why not if shoes, gadgets, clothes, and even cars do this? Who would want a standard furniture piece when it can be personalized with someone’s favorite texture, color, some extra details? To address this, manufacturers and millworkers need the technology that allows modifying and customizing an item in its “conceiving state”. This is what 3D printing of 3D models in Revit is about. The Revit program creates a model which is absolutely adjustable, modifiable, etc., and the 3D printing helps produce it as soon as possible. As a result, both the business and the customer win.

3D RENDERING IN REVIT: WHY USE IT FOR CAD PROJECTS

3D Render of a Shopping Mall

While working on a project, architects need tons of renderings on different stages so they can check if a 3D model of a building is alright. If they miss even the smallest error, this could postpone the deadline and cause problems with their clients. Therefore, getting renders fast is key to a productive and smooth workflow. But the speed of render depends directly on software 3D experts use. Read more
