1. Introduction: The Dawn of BIM Heroes   In the realm of architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC), a new breed of heroes has emerged. They are the BIM Heroes, champions of Building Information Modeling (BIM). This post aims to unmask these heroes, shedding light on their roles, their tools, and the impact they have on the AEC industry. BIM Heroes are not your typical superheroes. They don’t wear capes or masks, but they do possess a powerful tool: BIM. This technology is revolutionizing the way we design, construct, and manage buildings.  2. The Genesis of BIM Heroes&n ..read more

Have you played Minecraft or try to play it? Me. I got caught interested and wondered how a kid can build a beautiful house in Minecraft. It is just like a virtual Lego in a gamification platform. Don't get me wrong Lego is still different and it is the old school for the granddad. Yes, because nowadays Minecraft can do what it can, build from ground to top. You can build a skyscraper in just one sitting. Image Credits: JUNS MAB Architecture tutorial YT channel Although the essence of building a house in Minecraft is to build the quickest possible way. You can start either from top ..read more

Revit Structure Q&A What is Revit Structure? What are the advantages of using Revit Structure? What are the files used in Revit Structure? What is Bidirectional Associativity in Revit Structure?  1) What is Revit Structure? Revit Structure is a purpose-built software for building information modeling. Traditional drafting CAD software represent geometry of a design by using stylized symbols from designated illustrations. Some examples of these illustrations may be a series of plans, elevations, and sections. These illustrations are essentially independent of one another.  B ..read more

Minimize the use of Revit in-place families. Use preloaded families in the templates or your company project templates. Minimize reference planes or delete it after use. Careful deletion because some reference planes are used as work plane.  Maintain fewer and only essential links. Especially inserting CAD as an import symbol.  Link only in current view. This is to avoid CAD links to show up in all views. Minimize the use of void forms when modelling.  For horizontal framing use cut by face. When modelling, use families rather than groups. (Using groups to efficiently upd ..read more
