Presentation 1 - BIM and Collaboration, Mark Horrocks, BIM Collaboration Specialist, Central Innovation
Using model checking software to find issues with your collaborators’ models is one thing – trying to explain to them where the issues are within that model can be the hard part. This is especially cumbersome when working on large scale buildings where there could be thousands of repeating elements (such as duct segments, doors, stairs) across the project.
Using BCF files we can streamline this process, as a unique ID is attached to an issue and allows it to be highlighted for immediate isolation so it can’t be missed when the file is opened by your collaborative partners.
In this presentation, Mark will demonstrate the issue identification and resolution workflow afforded by Solibri, Revit and KUBUS BCF Manager plug-in
