Calculating Occupancy in Revit, Automatically

On this episode I will be joined by Dana De Filippi to talk about automatically calculating (and tagging) occupancy loads in Revit. Dana is a co-host on the BIM Thoughts Podcast and a BIM technologist within the field of architecture and kicks all kinds of Dynamo butt.

Dana will be sharing the workflow she developed that will automatically (and accurately) calculate your occupancy loads and place them into tags for you! Something I know you all just love doing manually … 😉

Topics Covered:
– Creating and using Area Schemes in Revit
– Constructing key values and using conditional formatting in Revit schedules.
– Use Dynamo to collect Revit and Excel Data
– Discover how to integrate user selection of different code requirements.

This is a DO NOT MISS for all of my fellow Architects out there!
