Elevating Multidisciplinary Transportation Projects Through BIM 360

Transportation engineers work every day to keep cities and people connected. But how do we keep transportation engineers connected so they can help successfully deliver projects? This class will focus on providing a workflow for hosting multidisciplinary transportation projects in BIM 360 software. We will start with project setup, including cleaning inherited files, folder structure, and drawing and model creation. We'll discuss the steps teams need to take to collaborate through effective data shortcut management, markups, issues, and model coordination. We'll examine collaboration techniques between roadway, utility, and structural designers working in Civil 3D software and architects working in Revit software. In addition, we will show how LIDAR data can be used using Navisworks software to complete the 3D model. Finally, we’ll summarize best practice tips and tricks that can aid design teams in the efficient management of projects. We'll use examples from a successful BIM 360 transportation project located in Toronto.
