Understanding the team space

00:08

Welcome to design collaboration, understanding the team space.

00:12

In this video, we will cover the team space,

00:15

review stakeholder participation options,

00:18

as well as understanding of the data structure.

00:21

Our focus will be on how the teams space

00:23

acts as our main hub for project collaboration needs.

00:27

First,

00:28

the teams space access or information exchange for

00:31

BIM data as well as package support documentation.

00:34

Secondly,

00:35

it is our discipline home which is established by

00:38

project admins in the team set up project administrators.

00:41

Typically the BIM project manager or managers will have full access to all teams.

00:47

And lastly when it comes to team model structures and model element breakdowns,

00:52

a single team may consist of multiple models,

00:55

as well as multiple buildings.

00:59

Now, let's have a look at the user interface.

01:02

It is primarily for content creators and discipline leads

01:06

that participate in sign collaboration,

01:08

but any stakeholder that needs or wants to participate may.

01:13

As with all the BIM 360 tools,

01:16

document management is the backbone.

01:18

When utilized with design collaboration, it becomes our

01:21

common data environment replacing traditional information exchanges.

01:25

Many of us who remember Revit

01:26

server and collaboration for

01:28

Revit -

01:29

these tools were the precursor to design collaboration.

01:33

Design collaboration dramatically streamlines the

01:36

traditional file sharing methods while maintaining

01:39

an audit trail of the overall design process.

01:44

Within our team hub,

01:46

we can visualize and interact with our latest data.

01:49

As you can see here, we are the structural team.

01:51

So if I select a mechanical I can be the mechanical team,

01:55

but we'll stick with the structural team.

01:57

And if we look at our structural team, we can click on our project model,

02:01

we can review our sets.

02:04

So our sets are exactly what

02:06

we have within

02:09

REvit. You can see there's an architectural model as well.

02:13

We can

02:14

turn that off quickly.

02:15

If we wanted to see

02:17

our structural model, we go there.

02:20

So we can interact and we can see for a content browser, what our sets are,

02:24

so we can see basically

02:25

everything that comes from

02:27

Revit.

02:30

Those published sets

02:31

that we were just viewing within the design

02:34

collaborate interface are exactly what we establish here.

02:37

So our published settings

02:38

that we choose here to establish

02:42

as our publish will come through

02:45

just like we were just as if we were to print them out as a PDF set.

02:53

So we can see here, we have,

02:55

you know, exactly what we looked at in Revit -

02:57

these are the published sets and these change as our project as our project evolves.

03:02

So just take another quick look at the symbology along the side here.

03:06

We can see this is the teams we looked at that,

03:09

you know we have the ability to turn off models.

03:11

So right now, we're only looking at our structural work in progress.

03:15

We have our phases which are established in Revit,

03:18

as well as our levels which are established in Revit.

03:21

And you see, as we click through these,

03:24

we can jump between them and we can turn them off and go back to overall view.

03:27

But it's a very nice way

03:28

of kind of seeing, you know how things are broken out in Revit.

03:33

We have our

03:34

content browser once again, just like we talked about our public settings.

03:38

If we're creating issues

03:41

in the design space,

03:43

we can have those here.

03:45

And if there are changes,

03:47

the change visualizer, we can do those here. So as we're doing our publishes,

03:52

we can look at the changes between those publishers.

03:56

Okay, so

03:57

we'll go ahead and close out of that.

03:59

Let's look up here in our timeline. You can see we have three teams in this project

04:04

and our timeline right now is 15 days. If we hit our mouse wheel,

04:08

we can zoom in on certain days or, you know, kind of narrow our timeline down.

04:13

So we can always kind of look in, you can see this one has three.

04:16

If we click on that,

04:18

it'll take us, you know, even closer.

04:20

So you can see, hey, that's within two minutes there. So

04:22

just an option to play around with how we can manipulate the time plan,

04:27

the timeline, and

04:29

differentiate between a publish

04:33

any package. You can see the different symbols. One is a square -

04:36

that is every time we publish a model from Revit, a square will appear on the timeline.

04:42

So

04:43

look at it from our structural team, we can see there's some publishers here,

04:48

there's three. If we zoomed in, it's keeping track of every time

04:51

we publish a model from

04:53

Revit. So we can see, you know, our version history as we're going through it.

04:56

So every one of these would be a version and a publish.

04:60

And if we zoom back out,

05:02

we can see the circle. These are actually publishes - I'm sorry, packages.

05:07

These are our packages that we create to share

05:09

with our other discipline team. So

05:11

hovering over that package,

05:13

you can see this is a structural 50% CD version two and it was shared on

05:21

Couple of other elements within here.

05:23

We can see our project status page. So if we click down here,

05:28

we can click this, we can see

05:30

not only our successful publishers for our designated team,

05:34

but the successful publishers for our disciplined partners that we've

05:37

incorporated into our team.

05:41

And if you don't feel as if you get enough emails,

05:45

you can click on the email notifications,

05:47

it's defaulted on.

05:48

I would recommend maybe turning that off, unless you really like email,

05:52

you turn it on.

05:53

So that's, you know, every time a package is shared,

05:55

you will get an email notification so it could come in handy.

05:60

And lastly, we have our filters over here. So if we have our filters,

06:05

you know, they're defaulted on. If we kind of expand our trees down here,

06:10

maybe zoom out on our timeline, you can see how these work we hit filter here

06:14

so we can turn off our theme, we can

06:17

see it disappears,

06:18

we can turn off other teams. So these are how the filters work

06:22

kind of play around those and get a feel and see, you know, if they provide

06:26

value to you.

06:30

And that concludes understanding the design collaboration teams space.

06:34

Thank you.
