Best Practice | Future Proof BIM – It Starts in Design

Log In

Patrick May, the Digital Design Coordinator at Walker Warner Architects, reviews why modeling directly in a BIM authoring tool (ARCHICAD) is best for the project workflow when performed as early as possible. Using drafting or other 3D modeling tools can impede a smooth workflow. It forces designers to redo work, double up on modeling and drawing efforts, and potentially reduces accuracy or reinterpretation of design intent. In this presentation Patrick will give an overview of a project and program that has been designed almost entirely in ARCHICAD and show steps that can allow you to design directly in ARCHICAD and Future Proof your BIM workflow.
