BIM (Building Information Modeling) - Key Advantage

BIM (Building Information Modeling ) is the process of generating and managing building data during its life cycle. Typically it uses three-dimensional, real-time, dynamic building modeling software to increase productivity in building design and construction. The process produces the Building Information Model (also abbreviated BIM), which encompasses building geometry, spatial relationships, geographic information, and quantities and properties of building components. PCS embraces BIM as a core best practice for ensuring the very highest...

The Advance Use of Autodesk 360

Autodesk® 360 is all about liberating the design process. You’re probably already using Autodesk 360 for storage, but what’s coming is about much more than storage. The next generation of Autodesk 360 acts as a project hub that puts all your contacts, data, and design activities in one place. You control who accesses your data, where it lives (in the cloud or on your servers), and how people can retrieve it. Invite whoever you want to share project activities with, and use intuitive search tools to find exactly what you—and any not-so-organized...

What Is Meant by Parametric?

About Parametrism The term parametric refers to the relationships among all elements of the model that enable the coordination and change management that Revit provides. These relationships are created either automatically by the software or by you as you work. In mathematics and mechanical CAD, the numbers or characteristics that define these kinds of relationships are called parameters; hence, the operation of the software is parametric....
