The aim of this class is to demonstrate how teams within a construction company can use Autodesk Revit Live and what benefit such use can bring to their daily activities. Autodesk Revit is a software package most commonly used by design consultancies and architectural practices across the UK. It allows the creation and coordination of BIM models delivered by multiple members of the design team. Within the CAPEX phase, the model is passed to the contractor for clash detection, quantity take-off, and scheduling purposes, further to populate BIM models with information necessary for the Operational & Maintenance phase. Contractors can also use BIM models to provide the client with various design options, adjusting project cost, duration, and quality. Through the use of Autodesk Revit Live, contractors can provide clients with the ability to experience immersive VR visualisation of their project; however, VR usage is not limited to clients? benefits. Various teams within the construction company can benefit from visualising BIM models in a virtual reality environment.

This session will cover collaboration between architects and design visualization specialists within the Live Design network. Once a Revit software user generates an Autodesk Revit LIVE project, any design visualization specialist can jump in and take that project to another level. Using knowledge from 3ds Max software and the Stingray game engine, let’s see how we can easily add dynamic content to create an immersive presentation. Game engine technologies can really enhance the design visualization process—it’s all about real-time storytelling! This hands-on lab will give an overview of the power of each software system when they’re combined. During the lab, we will go from Revit software, to Autodesk Revit LIVE software, to Stingray game engine, then finally close the loop and send the project back into Autodesk Revit LIVE. This session features Autodesk Stingray, Autodesk Revit LIVE, and 3ds Max.

Most real-time rendering programs that let you bring in your Revit projects show amazing graphics-however, they are limited to one "moment" in time and therefore capture only a near-static project with very little physics or interaction-until now. With Autodesk Live (Revit software's real-time rendering viewer) and a little spice from the Stingray game engine, your projects will become living, breathing buildings as they were meant to be. And it's possible to easily add "the extra spice," such as moving elevators, people, and medical equipment, and supporting vehicle construction equipment. In this class, attendees will learn to use the real-time rendering of Autodesk Live, and learn how to bring Revit models into it. Also, attendees will learn how to bring Autodesk Live models into Stingray to add that extra spice to projects by using real-time rendering and real-time physics.

The class will start with an introduction to a historical project created in Revit software using scan-to-Building Information Modeling (BIM) workflows. The completed model will be showcased and specific features of the model will be highlighted. We will then introduce you to various Autodesk software used to accomplish the model, VIZ. Revit software, ReCap software, ReMake software, and Navisworks software. Once you have a basic understanding of the proposed workflow, we will then give a hands-on instructional demonstration. The workflows you will learn include visualizing a point cloud in ReCap and Navisworks; importing the point cloud in Revit, and making sure it's at the right location; creating basic historical objects using the Revit family editor; modeling complex architectural features in Revit; and scanning to ReMake and Revit. Lastly, you will discover how the model can be exported to Revit Live and visualized in a 1:1 scale using virtual reality devices to truly go back in time using tools of the future.

This course will focus on the workflow for complete project collaboration, starting with InfraWorks software and pulling it all together in Navisworks software for review, clash detection, coordination, and more. We’ll start by creating an existing site model with InfraWorks software’s Model Builder, which we’ll then import into Civil 3D software. Using the Civil 3D site plan, we’ll geolocate our Revit model and coordinate everything within Navisworks. We’ll end by kicking things up a notch and pushing everything (InfraWorks model, Civil 3D model, and Revit design model) to Revit Live to create a virtual reality (VR) experience.

In this class, you'll learn about the workflow needed to get your Revit MEP model with Revit Live software into Live Editor. Particularly when it comes to MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing), you need to know where to set the materials to get great results for your virtual reality experience. This class will demonstrate all the settings and the full workflow from your MEP model to Live Editor.

In the real world, one program just can’t do it all. This class will discuss the workflow for using multiple Autodesk products in a production environment. Discover how to start with a pencil sketch or AutoCAD drawing, develop a massing model using FormIt, and then move that model to Revit software to finalize the design and develop construction documents. We’ll also discuss other tools you can then use to create renderings and animations, and even move your model into virtual reality (VR) using Revit Live.

In the flurry of excitement of using virtual reality (VR) in the architecture, engineering, and construction industry, people have forgotten why they wanted to use VR in the first place. To ensure that you're staying on target and not using VR for the sake of VR, this class will provide VR guidance to the eager professionals who are already using Revit software in their practices. We will cover current popular VR use cases, such as design review and rapid design prototyping, which will define why VR is relevant. We will discuss current VR hardware/software that will define what you'll need for VR. Finally, we will demonstrate an easy VR workflow using Revit and Revit Live, which will define how you can easily take your Revit projects to VR today.

In this session, we'll go over the details of how to keep and maintain civil site plans in AutoCAD Civil 3D software, export those to Revit software and Collaboration for Revit cloud service, and incorporate both in InfraWorks software for sharing and presenting.

В 2016-2017 годах Bonava внедрила Autodesk 360 в вомьми странах Северной Европы для сотен проектов. О программах: Revit, Live, Stingray, 3ds Max, Unity.

This session has been developed due to requests from clients and describes the process of using a Revit model, the ease of transferring to Revit Live, and the capacity to enhance this with animation in 3ds Max and then move to VR with 3ds Max Interactive. The session, in collaboration with John Lewis, will encompass this workflow as part of their immersive experience for the refurbishment programme of their retail outlets. The course will look at how spatially the existing stores can benefit from using VR to enhance and optimise their space. The session with John Lewis was originally developed over 4 days, with this session outlining how to get existing data from Revit or CAD into VR. The principle development flow of how to use the Revit model and CAD data, with Revit Live, will be outlined and how to get a basic understanding of spatial awareness of the store and then move this model and information into 3ds Max to enhance with animation and effects. We'll also look at representation of this in 3ds Max Interactive (Stingray) to have additional interactive capacity; for example, picking up certain objects and changing the texture of carpet and wall surfaces.

Do you want to extend your workflows and use BIM models to create VR experiences that will wow your clients and project stakeholders?

This class will cover how Mott MacDonald, working with Autodesk consultancy, have been developing our own VR capability using Autodesk technologies.

This class is aimed at architects and engineers with a BIM background but little or no VR experience. We believe VR can add value to every project type and we will give you an in-depth look at the processes and workflows we have used to create VR experiences for Buildings, Transportation, Energy and Water projects.



We will start with the basics; VR hardware and how to prepare BIM models for VR using Stingray, Revit Live and 3DS Max. Fitting for Las Vegas, we will be 'upping the ante' with live demonstrations so we can share with you the variety ways we have brought our designs to life using video game technology, and how this is all possible without writing a single line of code.

"This class will walk through the process developed by Autodesk with Steelcase to visualize individual product, settings (products grouped together) and co-design of product. This process can provide both standard visuals and virtual reality visuals in multiple locations around the globe simultaneously. This works just like multi gaming where users can interact both with each other as well as with objects/products in the virtual space.

This process can be used to augment the product design process bringing product to market faster with fewer prototypes and less shipping and travel. This process can also be used to assist in complex marketing and selling where complex product needs to be displayed to multiple audiences simultaneously. (Joint AU/Forge DevCon class)."
