The evolution of Collaboration for Revit, now BIM 360 Design software, is a hot topic this year. This roundtable will present various questions and ideas for discussion as a companion to the various lectures that are on the same topic. What is different, and what is the same? What are the favorite or most challenging features? How do we best collaborate in this new platform? Are different approaches relevant depending on the project? Is the experience different based on project role? What are the lessons learned, best practices, and ideas for future evolution? Come discuss and learn from the collective experiences of a group.

The BIM 360 next-generation platform has been a revelation in one of Norway’s biggest engineering companies. Using Revit software as the main design tool, Norconsult are implementing cloud worksharing with BIM 360 Design software in more and more projects. Designers and contractors now have a common communication platform where models are been used instead of drawings to make the decisions. Join us in this session to discover an ongoing project, preformed by Norway’s two biggest companies, as an example to show how BIM 360 Docs software and BIM 360 Design are being used to communicate and collaborate in the cloud.

When we had to quickly accommodate a fully remote working environment, BIM 360 Design software became the essential tool to continue working and collaborating as design teams with minimal interruption. Prior to the global disruption that COVID-19 caused, only 20% of the company’s portfolio was hosted on the cloud. Within three weeks, all projects were successfully migrated into BIM 360 Design and the design teams were using them. This session will elaborate on how Buro Happold’s early adoption of the software laid the foundation for the successful migration of all projects nationwide. Learn how the design teams made the switch almost overnight, and discover the benefits they have found through utilizing available BIM 360 Design collaborative tools.

Learn how to share models from Revit software to BIM 360 Docs software using BIM 360 Design software, and then how to use this model in BIM 360 Model Coordination for Clash Detection, reviewing clash with team, creating issues, and more. Model Coordination provides a shared space to publish, review, and run clashes on your latest set of project models and upload 3D models to a centralized Model Coordination folder, and the clash service automatically locates any issues in those models. BIM 360 Design is a cloud work-sharing and design-collaboration product built for distributed, multidisciplinary teams. With BIM 360 Design, you can co-author Revit models in the cloud, control work-sharing activities, and coordinate deliverable exchange across teams.

How good is the new aspect of BIM 360 software: Design Collaboration? What if you have more than 10 teams on it? How do you start the BIM aspect of a 75,000-square-meter project? As a leading BIM construction company, VINCI Construction France is always looking to improve project management processes. In this class, we’ll present how the Autodesk cloud-based software is applied on a real project: the iconic HEKLA tower, designed by Ateliers Jean Nouvel. We’ll introduce the 1.5-year working progress on BIM 360 Design Collaboration (six months after the official launch). We’ll go deeper to understand how we manage a big project that reaches software performance limits. We’ll also show homemade tools that we used on the project: Forge app linked to Microsoft Power BI, Revit model checker rules to improve the BIM quality of the project. To go further, we’ll show some field implementations that are linked to our BIM 360 platform.

Specialized applications for structure, analysis, detailing, and more are now included when you subscribe to AEC selection. How is the new, unified AEC selection changing how you work? In this 60-minute session, you will learn the seamless workflow known as “the triangle of love” between Revit software, Robot Structural Analysis software, and Advance Steel software. You will learn how to link a Revit structural model to Robot Structural Analysis for Structural Steel Code Check and Optimization. You will also learn how to link the optimized Robot Structural Analysis model back to Revit and Advance Steel for connection design and detailing. This class will also cover how to set up and use Autodesk’s BIM 360 Design software for sharing Revit, Robot Structural Analysis, and Advance Steel models, and curate, coordinate, and manage deliverables throughout the project lifecycle. When design project teams have the right information at the right time, work happens faster.

With the release of the BIM 360 Design Collaboration module, a variety of opportunities are open to project teams with respect to how they control the information flow between different participants. Understanding the flow of publish, package, share, and consume is just the beginning. Understanding the nuances of the permissions system lets you connect your linked Revit files to each other and to other data types in ways that go beyond the strict rules imposed by the system's default behaviors. We will walk you through the most-restrictive (default) approach, and then address strategies regarding how to make the permission system work for you, and how to integrate non-Revit design team members using Desktop Connector or the Forge platform. Beyond how to use the system, we will also address the consequences for consultants engaged in the environment via their clients. What are the implications for third parties when they’re asked to participate in what is effectively a “low-trust” environment over which they have no direct control?

Join industry leaders and Autodesk for an open roundtable discussion about BIM 360 Design software and how this team used the next-generation services for a $1 billion, 17-firm, 280-plus-member team to design a fully integrated BIM (Building Information Modeling) project for a new medical center campus. Participate in the conversation around model schema for the medical center campus and features of the new service modules, and hear our best practices and how they enabled success for our project team. Learn how you can apply these same practices for projects of any market sector or size.

In the spring of 2018, Autodesk introduced BIM 360 Design software, based on the Forge platform, and BIM 360 Document Management. While users still have access to the legacy BIM 360 Team technology, BIM 360 Design provides enhanced collaboration workflows, greater control over file permissions, and much tighter integration with BIM 360 Docs software for use in "downstream" collaboration workflows during a project’s postdesign phases. This class will focus on the enhanced workflows possible with Design Collaboration and Revit cloud collaboration, and will cover project setup, teams and permissions, and the use of packages to effectively control when others have access to your data and when data from other teams is updated in your model. We will also look at common troubleshooting techniques and BIM 360 site setup.

The BIM 360 Design product provides access to the Design Collaboration and Document Management modules within the BIM 360 platform. In addition, access (entitlements) are provided for Revit Cloud Worksharing and Collaboration for Civil 3D software. With these entitlements, it is possible to achieve true collaboration between all members of the project team. Two experts will discuss and demonstrate the workflow for such cloud-based collaboration using Revit software and Civil 3D software. We’ll examine the similarities and differences and offer some best practices advice. The session will wrap up with a demonstration of sharing data between Revit and Civil 3D using BIM 360 software.

Coordinating a hospital is very complex. Finding ways to save the owner money, speed up construction, and keep the intended design and feel of the building is extremely complicated. That is why as a general contractor we needed to start the coordination of the hospital earlier on by using BIM 360 Design software, BIM 360 Docs software, and BIM 360 Glue software. In this class, we’ll discuss how we got the design team and subcontractors on board, and the benefits we gained from moving the coordination of the project earlier in the design phase.

The BIM 360 Product Management Team will review the recent enhancements to the Design Collaboration module and share priorities for the product road map. Learn about how BIM 360 software can help you publish, manage, review, and approve all project drawings, documents, and models across the project lifecycle.
