workflow revit

[ilbona]

Good morning I'm evaluating the ride from autocad to revit. these days I began studying the program to try to understand its functioning. according to you how should the workflow be set between different studies working at the same project?? to large lines how does the development for example of a large residential complex between architecture, engineering and plants?? Sorry about the banal question, I read news about the workset operation but I can't understand if you can use it even in case I just quoted and how... thank you.

I do not speak for direct experience because I have never collaborated with great studies, but they are in different commissions (buildings, landscape etc) and projects I see pass several (completes of law 10 etc).
I have never seen an integrated project between implantists and architecture.
I think that integration is only vertical and within large studies that engineer executive projects for general contractors of large works, but this integration of the bim, in my opinion, will put us much more than a few years to become reality and widespread in a massive way.

Okay, thank you. So, if I understand correctly, everyone takes care of their own aspect of the project within the study... the strutturista and the planner update the structural and plant design by transposing the changes from the architectural tables from the study of architecture.

If you refer to within the same study I don't know, but of studies really integrated in Italy there are few, the embassy is to have galaxies of studies to which the leader leans, so it depends on the individual cases.
to tell you that there is too much mitization on the organization of mega studios I tell you an anecdote: a foreign client to whom I am following a couple of projects on the productive part of the activity that it has in Italy, has entrusted the project of its new home in Italy to renzo piano workshop, which is doing it the new headquarters in the use.
the project is entrusted, within the rpw, to an Italian architect who does not speak English....the funny is that they came to me to ask if I could connect.
Of course I said yes, but I also noted that, with the bill that they would pay him, they could have demanded a fixed interpreter, and so then it was done (in reality they took a neolaureate that speaks English very well and therefore it does not cost him anything).

My situation is this: work in collaboration with other studies that are pushing to move to revit. I say okay, okay. But before buying the program and doing courses investing time and money, I want to try to understand how the workflow will be that will regulate our collaboration because if you don't give a rule and each one navigates to sight, things will definitely not work. To understand, besides documenting how I'm doing, I have to try to have the opinion of expert people who have a direct experience of what I'm talking about, that's why I wrote here. Thank you.

then I suggest you go to these studies and ask to see how their models are organized and evaluate if they are ready to work that way.
if they use revit in the right way the collaboration could be feasible, but it is a path that requires so much collaboration and preparation upstream, with rules (and resources) shared.
If you want to work like that, you need a bim manager, otherwise the toy doesn't work.

if all studies work with revit, each study where to have all the models of all other studies, all the time, to always have the latest version of the models. if studies are not linked to a cloud service such as c4r (colaboration for revit) or another cloud service, generally every study where to upload the models to a place como box.com, once a week (for example, every Friday). every model where to have a bunch of worksets, one for each model. this needs a document of standards, so that all studies do these worksets in the same way, or similar.
