This course will teach you how to design using the Building Information Modeling (BIM) method with BIM softwares.
The BIM method - or the digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of a facility - is a cutting-edge design method, which minimizes errors and maximizes efficiency.
For these reasons it will be increasingly adopted in the future. The USA, UK and Northern Europe have already adopted it since many years, and it will grow to play an even more crucial role in building documentation in the future.
The first part of this course focuses on BIM softwares and consists of three packages - basic, intermediate and advanced. The course’s aim is to explain all the major features of the BIM software on a deeper level through detailed video courses. It is suitable for first time software users as well as those who are already familiar with it, but want to understand its functions on a deeper level.
The second portion addresses the approach to Families, basic units of design in BIM containing essential information. BIM families are basically used to practically group together similar elements in a project done with BIM and so to speed up and personalize the design process. This part aims to teach everything there is to know about the creation, modification and use of families in BIM softwares; covering the correct use of the three types of families, the use of parameters and constraints, and the use of nested families and conceptual masses.
Everyone who wishes to learn how to design with Building Information Modeling at an advanced level should purchase this course. In turn, you will be able to minimize errors and speed up processes, whether you are starting from scratch or already have a basic knowledge of BIM softwares.
The course also includes the registration to a dedicated Facebook group for any clarifications, questions or insights to be discussed with the teacher.
