Caruso Turley Scott (CTS), long-time local consulting structural engineers, will present their considerable experience with Revit Structure on dozens of projects. They will start with who is in charge of the BIM Execution Plan, let us know how well the “Copy/Monitor” function is working for them, when to begin the structural design in Revit, whether CTS is becoming involved with BIM coordination during the construction phase, including Shop Drawings, and whether those thousands of typical structural details still live in AutoCAD. Expect some discussion about the impact of AutoCAD and Revit Structure on the bottom line of a structural engineering practice.

The Learning objectives are:
1. Identify efficient practices for development of the BIM execution plan.
2. Identify and list design criteria to be defined prior to beginning the BIM model. Obtain consensus from all BIM modelers of all disciplines.
3. Set up a method to communicate and , as possible share ideas for efficient workflows during the project coordination process.
4. Define efficient workflows for detailing in revit, including converting cad details to revit, linking details, and creating hybrid details.
5. Set up known and attainable deadlines for all modelers.....in writing!
