Incorporate BIM in the planning and design stage

Learn how to navigate the critical stages of conceptual and developed design within the BIM workflow. This video guides you through the process of initial 3D conceptual design using tools like Autodesk Forma and Revit, aligning design possibilities with client objectives while addressing client outcome requirements. Explore the evolution of the BIM model as it incorporates architectural, structural, and MEP components, and discover how to manage coordination challenges with tools like ACC Model Coordination. 

After completing this video, you’ll be able to:

• Explain the role of the design phase in shaping project concepts and alignment with client objectives.
• Describe key documentation produced during this stage.
• Describe the importance of early set up of the common data environment (CDE).
• Describe the value of early model coordination between different disciplines.
• Explain how the BIM model evolves during the design stage.
