EVEN BETTER TOGETHER:Collaboration between Architects and
Structural Engineers in Revit
Irina Wong
ABOUT THE SPEAKER
I’m an expat architect who is now the BIM Coordinator at Degenkolb Engineers, a structural engineering firm in Washington, Oregon, and California.
My roles include coordinating Revit projects across disciplines, managing the firm’s BIM practice, maintaining responsibility for company-wide best practices, providing technical support, and leading the development of the firm’s future BIM direction.
In short, I plan models, I build models, fix models, and, more often than I will care to admit, crash models.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
• Make informed decisions at project startup and maintain strong communication through completion.
• Improve your workflow by understanding the perspectives and expectations of other disciplines.
• Develop a Building Information Model that implements proper Revit techniques for improved design coordination.
RULES OF THE ROUNDTABLE• Share your experiences!
• Everyone is likely to have diverse experiences and unique lessons learned. Kindly respect the differences.
• I have an egg timer and I’m not afraid to use it.
SESSION OUTLINE
• The BIM Kickoff Meeting
• The Architects’ Use of the Model• The Structural Engineer’s Use of the Model
• Tips for the Structural Engineers• Tips for the Architects
THE BIM KICKOFF MEETING
THE BIM KICKOFF MEETING
• Who?• Why?• What?
THE BIM KICKOFF MEETING
• Who?– A facilitator to manage the entire meeting– From each discipline:
• Manager(s) of project• Manager(s) of digital model
– Identify team members and roles• Who will field the design questions?• Who will field the BIM questions?
THE BIM KICKOFF MEETING
• Why?– Manage expectations and goals– No surprises– Set timeline for workflow
THE BIM KICKOFF MEETING
• What?– Articulate model usages
• Design documentation• Presentation material• As-built 3D model• Energy/structural/etc. analysis• ???
THE BIM KICKOFF MEETING
• What?– Articulate model expectations
• AIA E202 BIM Protocol Exhibit
STARTING OFF WELL – THE BIM KICKOFF MEETING• What?

LOD200 Model Content: approximate quantities, size, shape, location and orientation. Purpose: analysis of defined systems and general performance objectives.
LOD300 Model Content: attributes and parameters defined by the owner.Purpose: Estimating, construction coordination for clash detection, scheduling, and visualization.
LOD400 Model Content: fabrication-ready detail.Purpose: construction and fabrication of project components, including MEP systems.
LOD500 Model Content: Central data storage of project, including completed parameters and attributes.Purpose: Building maintenance and operations systems.

THE BIM KICKOFF MEETING
• What?– Articulate model expectations
• Custom in-house Level of Development Matrix
None: Info is not part of scope.
C/M: Info will be represented in our model & drawings, but it will be only copy/monitored from the architect.
Notes: Info will be represented in General Notes and other written forms of communication.
2D drawings: Info will be drafted in 2D drawings, details, and annotations; may be supplemented by notes.
Parametric: Info will exist in the parametric values of 3D objects, but will not be modeled.
3D: Info will be modeled in 3D; may be supplemented by 2D drawings and notes.

THE BIM KICKOFF MEETING
• WHAT?– Articulate model expectations
• Custom in-house Level of Development Matrix
THE BIM KICKOFF MEETING
• WHAT?– Establish collaboration procedure
• Designate Revit origin, coordinates, elevation• Set the model-sharing timeline• Refrain from “throwing the model over the fence”• Decide upon milestone coordination meetings
THE BIM KICKOFF MEETING
• What?– Determine post-design procedure
• Discuss BIM’s role in the CA process• Clarify As-Built or Record Drawing requirements
what’s your perspective on coordination techniques and issues at project kickoff?
THE ARCHITECT’S USE OF THE MODEL
THE ARCHITECTS’ USE OF THE MODEL
• THE REVIT ARCHITECTURE ENVIRONMENT (AKA THE BDS 2013 “ARCHITECTURE” TAB)
– The tab contains commonly-used architectural elements.– Some components (“Wall” and “Floor”) are named alike in
Structure and Architecture.• “Architecture” is non-loadbearing• “Structure” is loadbearing
• COORDINATION AND CLASH DETECTION– 3D views– Section boxes– Visibility/Graphics modifications
THE ARCHITECTS’ USE OF THE MODEL
• PRODUCTION– Presentation materials– Construction Documents
• 2D and 3D views
THE ARCHITECTS’ USE OF THE MODEL
for the architects in the room – how do you use the model?
THE STRUCTURAL ENGINEER’S USE OF THE MODEL
THE SE’S USE OF THE MODEL
• THE REVIT STRUCTURE ENVIRONMENT(AKA THE “STRUCTURE” TAB IN BDS 2013)
• The tab contains structural elements.
MODELING: THE STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS’ PERSPECTIVE
• MODEL CATEGORIES: A FEW ITEMS OF NOTE– Structural Framing
X X
MODELING: THE STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS’ PERSPECTIVE
• MODEL CATEGORIES: A FEW ITEMS OF NOTE– No “roofs”
STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS’ MODELING
• ANALYTICAL MODEL– It‘s a simplified 3D representation of the full engineering
description of a structural physical model.
STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS’ MODELING
• COORDINATION AND CLASH DETECTION– We turn off everything in the architect’s model but:
• Walls• Floors and floor openings• Roofs• Grids/Levels
– Then, we look at the updates that affect our design.
THE SE’S USE OF THE MODEL
• COORDINATION AND CLASH DETECTION - CHALLENGES– Copy/Monitor
“Elements deleted?! But I see the grids. Why does it say they’re deleted?”
THE SE’S USE OF THE MODEL
• COORDINATION AND CLASH DETECTION - CHALLENGES– Roof slopes (or anything sloped)
for the SEs in the room – how do you use the model?
TIPS FOR THE STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS
TIPS FOR THE SEs
• CHECK YOUR WORK IN 3D.
Looks about right… … well, not really.
TIPS FOR THE SEs
• THE CLIENT MIGHT WANT PRETTY PICTURES.
Structural Model Finished Rendering
what tips do you have for the SEs in the room?
TIPS FOR THE ARCHITECTS
TIPS FOR THE ARCHITECTS
• REMEMBER THE DECISIONS MADE DURING THE BIM KICKOFF MEETING– Level of Development agreements– Collaboration procedures
• Origin• Coordinates• Sectors• North• Elevation Datum• Etc.
SURVEY POINT• Once Acquired or Published,
it becomes the “Shared Coordinate”
PROJECT BASE POINT• Specific to each file• “Origin-to-Origin”
TIPS FOR THE ARCHITECTS
• COLLABORATION PROCEDURES: THE ORIGIN POINT– Where is it geographically?– Use Shared Coordinates or Internal Origin?
TIPS FOR THE ARCHITECTS
• MAINTAIN THE DECISIONS MADE DURING THE BIM KICKOFF MEETING– Keep the origin, datum, sectors, and north– Modify Copy/Monitored elements – don’t delete.– Remember the LOD agreements
• MODEL WELL– Maintain clean dimensions– Use logical tools for modeling
what tips do you have for the architects in the room?
