    Description

    FormIt Pro software is Autodesk's premier architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) 3D modeling and analysis environment for conceptual and computational design workflows. Take advantage of FormIt Pro in the Architecture, Engineering & Construction Collection to expand and diversify your services while designing with sustainability in mind. This class will show workflows that involve FormIt Pro and other products in the AEC Collection. Start your FormIt Pro model by assigning a location and importing a BIM context from InfraWorks software for 3D terrain, buildings, and roadways. Explore design options quickly and efficiently in FormIt Pro by integrating Dynamo graphs while controlling the graph through FormIt Pro software’s simple interface. Quantify and present design options by importing a FormIt Pro massing model into Revit software to quickly document space-planning and feasibility studies. Present real-time visualizations to clients by importing a more detailed FormIt Pro model into Revit for a walk-through, and continue to detail and document the design in Revit.

    Key Learnings

    • Learn how to bring in 3D context from InfraWorks to use in FormIt Pro to start your model with accurate buildings and terrain.
    • Learn how to import a FormIt model into Revit for scheduling and quantification of space-planning and feasibility studies.
    • Learn how to import a FormIt model into Revit for advanced visualization while preserving FormIt materials.
    • Learn how to integrate the power of Dynamo into early design exploration without leaving FormIt software’s intuitive interface.
