In this episode of BIM After Dark Live I will be giving an update on my ongoing home addition project (“Split Level Redux”) and talk about some of the ways Revit has helped during the construction phase.
So often in residential construction, as the architect, we spend countless hours working with a client to design their dream home (or addition). However, there isn’t always a connection between that effort and the efforts in the field.
I have been using my own personal project as an opportunity to explore how Revit (and “BIM” in general) can add value to residential contractors, too.
In this episode we will explore:
– General construction updates on the project (with some cool footage).
– How I am using Revit to track progress.
– How Revit is helping me place material orders.
– Real-time diagramming and problem solving using the model..
– And of course, some of the head-aches along the way….
