IMAGINiT TECHNOLOGIES: BIM 360

February 17, 2011, Frost Engineering & Consulting‘s technicians participated in Imaginit Technologies BIM 360 – Models From All Angles course via web-cast. BIM lends extreme capabilities, and attributes advancement in any engineering task, from buildings, bridges and more. BIM 360 was a course offered to ensure maximum utilization of the dynamic software.

BIM-360 illustrated the entire BIM process, providing a detailed review of Revit and future concepts. Autodesk Ecotect applied in Revit offers contribution of energy analysis; using specific Revit model development techniques which pose benefits to the architect. The workflow presented in Ecotect also provided ideas for us to use on our BIM projects, allowing simplification of the model when transitioning from Revit to Ram prior analysis. Avatech utilities offers a universal project application with ‘Point Clouds,’ allowing us to take a raw point cloud and revise it for our purposes.”

“Strengths revealed from BIM-360 that will enhance Frost Engineering include a few of the qualities demonstrated. Revit model in correspondence with Navisworks will offer provision for plausible clash detection to be useful towards larger structures and working with architects/contractors in prevention of potential building conflict interference – such as a duct line running through a solid wall, or overlapped item. The insight Navisworks revealed in ‘Virtual Construction’ models gave options for building construction schedules and contractor viewing in ‘real time’ status as the building process unfolds.”
