For most firms, renovation projects account for the majority of the workload but managing the various stages can be a struggle. During this BIM in 30 Minutes webinar discover how to quickly add existing conditions for demolition drawings and how this helps expedite the new design work. You’ll also uncover situations where existing conditions do not have to be completely modeled, as well as how to get your drawings to look the way you want them to look.
Join us to examine…
- How to model existing conditions quickly and accurately
- How to use existing conditions to produce better designs in less time
- How to manage phases and renovation filters to control the display of drawings to match company standards
For Passacantando Architects renovation is a big part of what they do and ARCHICAD makes the process a whole lot easier. “Using the renovation filter helped us see what needed to remain and what could be torn down, of course,” explained Andrew Passacantando when talking about the recent renovation of an historic home. “Showing the existing conditions and proposed changes made it easier for us to communicate with the folks involved in approving our ideas.”
