Gast Architects from Design to Documents
Mar 8 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Join us at AIA San Francisco to discover how Gast Architects integrates BIM throughout a project from design through construction documents.
While many firms have implemented BIM there is often frustration with using BIM as a design tool and the quality of graphics produced from a BIM process. Gast Architects will discuss how they use BIM in design, how they migrate a BIM design model to documentation and their strategy for producing high quality presentation and production documents using ARCHICAD.

AIA CES Learning Objectives

  • Examine how a local firm uses BIM as a design tool in the schematic phase of a project.
  • Discover how to easily migrate the design model for use in the construction documentation phase.
  • Uncover the process of setting up a BIM model to quickly produce presentation design views and 3D cutaways.
  • Explore case studies that showcase how to efficiently produce high quality graphics for production documents.
AIA CES : 1.5 LUs
