Revit Worksharing and Design Collaboration in the Cloud

Jason Kunkel, CADD Microsystems

Come see the evolution of collaborating in the cloud with Revit. This presentation will

showcase BIM 360 Design and how it can help your Revit teams connect across offices

without an impact on performance, choose which version of the models should be used

as a background for all consultants, perform quick comparisons of models, have access

to any document/model/drawing anytime on any device, manage your

RFI’s/issues/submittals, and many more benefits!

Monitoring Your Revit Model’s Health

Jason Kunkel, CADD Microsystems

Having a dashboard for your Revit model is a great way to monitor trends, watch out for

issues, and share insights about the model file with everyone in an easy to consume

graphical format. In the past, dashboards were something only the big firms with the big

staffs were able to create and manage. But with some free and pretty cheap tools

available now, anyone can collect and share the data needed for a slick dashboard that

you can share with your team. This session will cover using the Model Checker for Revit

to build and generate a report that can be used to monitor model fidelity in a data

visualization tool like Power BI and will discuss some best practices around that process.

Civil-ized Collaboration: Managing Your Civil Drawings

Donnie Gladfelter, CADD Microsystems

Matt Harraka, CADD Microsystems

No one enjoys managing data, yet today’s projects generate more data than ever. As

the data footprint of our projects grow, so too does the level of effort necessary to

maintain it. From managing construction document sets, securing data across internal

teams (survey & engineering), providing managed access to external stakeholders,

integration between design and productivity tools, the cost of managing data is high,

not to mention time consuming. But does it have to be?

Autodesk BIM 360 suite of tools not only integrates with today’s most popular design

applications, but also popular productivity tools like MS Office. How can this expanded

functionality provide an effective method for managing the growing complexities of

projects? Join us for this session to learn how to ditch uncivilized collaboration solutions

for a uniquely civilized approach with BIM 360 for survey and civil engineering.

ORANGE ROOM

Construction Coordination for Project Management, Quality and Safety

Matt Harraka, CADD Microsystems

Join us as we delve into how construction professionals can manage projects

collaboratively, keeping all teams and data up-to-date, no matter where they are located

– the field, the office, or across the country. BIM 360 is a collaboration tool that allows

real-time visibility into project performance, supporting clash resolution workflows,

quality and safety programs, RFIs, submittals, and daily reporting. This also minimizing

project data loss that can come from transferring data manually or via spreadsheets.
