You know, for the first time in a long time (lie)- I have more topics to cover than i do time to cover them. I consider myself very fortunate to work at Beck, where ive had the opportunity recently to do some incredible things, Technology and Construction wise. Some of them are based in Revit, and some of them are not, but hint at a workflow that could be.
But alas, it is post Thanksgiving week, and for many of us that means its Autodesk University time. (Let me say it also means i cooked an AMAZING meal for great friends. You didnt think Revit was ALL i did, did you???) This year, i was fortunate enough to have a couple of classes selected for presentation. Both are on Thursday.
The first class is:
AB4532- Autodesk Revit Links, Groups, and Documentation: How to make it Really Work!
Thursday, 8am: Venue: Marcello 4502
The second class is:
CR4551: Autodesk Revit, Contractors, Site Logistics, and Construction Scheduling for the Real World.
Thursday, 1pm: Venue: Marcello 4502
Ive been late getting the materials put together, due to things being crazy hectic (thats my fault), but the AB4532 materials are up. You can get them from the AU.autodesk.com website, or you can get them here:
We can also laugh watching my computer hang on for dear life, with a 1.2GB Revit Model opened. (Ill admit, the margin is slim, but it holds steady!)
Here are a couple of quick excerpts from the AB4532 class. A quick video on Model Groups, with multiple embedded Detail Groups, and why "annotating the same thing over and over again is the definition of insanity."
Another one, on Links, Design Options, View Templates, and how its a lot of fun to use all three together on Tall Buildings.
For the CR class.... We will ahve plenty of goodies. Maybe even some more Point Data, Inventor, and Mail Merge. (Oh yes i did). Anyone looking to get ahold of me throughout AU:
