We will explore together how to optimize a collaborative multidisciplinary platform utilizing Collaboration for Revit cloud service and the BIM 360 Team hub throughout the design process. We will discuss best approaches for joint-venture projects for small or mid-size practices. The speaker will share with you his expertise of 2 years, and the best approach to apprehend such difficult decisions in terms of technology implementation. Collaboration for Revit cloud service and BIM 360 Team help our distributed teams to collaborate efficiently without losing our sight of the project delivery or its control throughout the entire design process. Instant messaging is possible in Revit software, awareness of presence in model is possible without leaving Revit software, and more is possible in Communicator for Revit software.

Class summary


At the end of this class, you will be able to:

Learn how to determine the best approach to share data in the Cloud. Learn how to unify people and data and keep them connected with BIM 360

Team. Learn how to contribute to integrated workflow processes utilizing

Communicator in Revit. Learn how to capitalize on the Cloud potential for small or medium-size

design firms on joint-venture projects.

Key learning objectives


Agenda

Introduction – Your AU Expert Where are we now? Project / Team / Challenges How Did we select best solution BIM 360 Team Collaboration for Revit Q/A – Wrap up.


Your AU Expert: Kal Houhou - @bimguru Kal is a technology advocate and Building Information

Modeling (BIM) evangelist. He has over 25 years in the architecture, engineering,

construction, and owner-operated (AECO) industry, and over 10 years managing BIM complex projects for the private and the public sectors worldwide.

His dual backgrounds in architecture and IT enable him to apprehend issues as they arise and design business strategy orientation.

In his spare time, Houhou coaches’ soccer in a youth league in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area.

He is passionate about anything technology related, and he likes sharing his knowledge and experience with the crowd.


Where are we now?

• Decentralized models• Disconnected communication• Inefficient feedback• Expensive up-front investments


Decentralized Models

Firm A

Architecture Model

Firm B

Structure Model

Firm C

MEPModel

Buzzsaw

Dropbox

Friction moving data between stakeholders

Firm E

Construction Model

Firm D

SiteModel


Disconnected Communication

Firm C Firm D

Firm BFirm A

Communication in silos outside of

applications


Inefficient Feedback Loop

Feedback happens outside

of tools


Expensive up-front investments


The Project : Washington, DC – Museum


The Distributed Team


Challenges

• Four Architectural firms – Five offices• Different Time Zones• Geographic locations• Budget – IT/Hardware investment• Backup and Archive storage space


Possible Solutions

• Revit Server – Pros/Cons• Private Cloud – Pros/Cons• Public Cloud – Pros/Cons• Virtual / Remote Workstations


Technology Survey


And the results are…• BIM 360 Team with Collaboration for Revit


Interact & Collaborate on BIM Data Across Platforms


What’s a Hub…

A Team hub associates people, projects, and data. A project is a unique location where a team keeps all related information

in one shared place. A Team hub includes team members. A hub has at least one administrator who can manage the access to

projects and related content. If you are a team member, you can see all non-secret projects in the hub to which you have been invited.

Project team members can share and access design data, discuss challenges and successes, and stay current with project activities.

Every project belongs to a hub and has its own data, people, calendar, and wiki.

In-Context CommunicationCommunicator in Revit


Collaboration for Revit (C4R) challenges/recommendations

• Cache space on local drive: 3x+ Revit Project total size• Hard Drive on Workstation/laptop better be a 512+GB SSD• Internet bandwidth per user: min. up/down 10 Mbps• Revit 2017.1 added features to help C4R


Collaboration for Revit (C4R)Open Model / Initiate collaboration

• You need to have a Revit Model work shared on the Cloud to open it…

• You can change the Model name…• Select Project will show only your

current Revit version projects in BIM360 Team


Collaboration for Revit (C4R)Initiate collaboration

• In Revit: Collaborate Tab…


Collaboration for Revit (C4R) publish settings

• Don’t forget to sync with central prior to publish your model(s)


Collaboration for Revit (C4R) publish model(s) to BIM 360 Team Hub
