    Description

    This session will detail how to efficiently create and manage projects in Revit software using one model with multiple projects. Factory design is often ongoing and requires change to accommodate new and upgraded products, increase safety, and provide work spaces for people in an ever-changing environment. While Revit has traditionally been used in a way that is one site, one project—this presentation will share how Revit can be used to accommodate many projects in one model. In regards to manufacturing and innovation, speed is key when it comes to new factory designs. Software should enable us to quickly build off what we've already created, and create permit packages that can get sent out to local authorities having jurisdiction. This type of building information modeling (BIM) management isn't only applicable to factories and manufacturing spaces; it can also be applied to any building that continues to require permit packages.

    Key Learnings

    • Learn how to set up a Revit file to be able to easily accommodate new projects for ongoing permit packages.
    • Learn how to use Ideate to easily clone and change project numbers and names associated with newly created views.
    • Learn how to properly manage large Revit files so that you can have many projects in one model without lag.
