Francois Levy Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 (edited) I have a Vectorworks BIM workshop coming up this weekend (August 1-2) in the Bay Area, with another in Pittsburgh on August 15-16. Here's a link: http://is.gd/1dcIX. ABOUT THE CLASS The BIM Workshop is intended for users of Vectorworks ARCHITECT or DESIGNER (and even FUNDAMENTALS) who wish to integrate intelligent models into their design and documentation workflow. Topics covered include: * Using hybrid 2D and 3D parametric objects such as site models, walls, windows, doors, stairs, etc. * File organization and maximizing the effectiveness of classes, design and sheet layers, and viewports for efficiently extracting views of a building model * General 3D modeling * Embedding data in hybrid objects and generating tabular views (reports) such as door and window schedules, area takeoffs, and performance calculations * Team collaboration using workgroup references, including integrating DWG (AutoCAD files) in your workflow, and importing and exporting IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) files For a preview of projects demonstrating some of these principles (and others) please see these two online movies (approximately 40 minutes in length each): http://download2.nemetschek.net/www_movies/Francois_Levy_AIA/Francois_Levy_AIA.html http://download2.nemetschek.net/Presentations/Levy_7shades_green.mov Macintosh workstations will be available for all participants, and participants are welcome to bring their own laptops with Vectorworks installed. Fast-paced and comprehensive, this training is helpful to Vectorworks users wanting to take their expertise to the next level.
