With Revit software and Advance Steel software, structural engineers have tools available to enable them to take their designs past construction documents and into fabrication and construction. Construction schedules are faster, integrated project delivery is more common, and the Who, How, and When of structural shops drawings and fabrication models are changing. This presentation will show how US-based structural engineers who already create their design models and drawings with Revit software can use this same software to create shops drawings from their fabrication models for rebar, precast, and structural steel, and also create concrete lift drawings. Attendees will learn why these services are offered, how engineers can offer them, and best practices to follow to offer Building Information Modeling (BIM)-based structural shop drawings. This session features Revit Structure and Advance Steel. AIA Approved

Web Applications and Cloud Services are highly distributed and loosely coupled. They have dependencies on both internal and external services, and are released on different frequencies and schedules. The distributed nature and variety of the Cloud ecosystem makes it so that teams have to think about testing differently. This presentation will cover tips and tricks to enhance your development lifecycle to release changes faster, with higher confidence; how to build a CI/CD pipeline; how to package and deploy your code; when and where to introduce testing in the process; and what testing should be done.

Most architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) organizations struggle to scale automation and AI because BIM data is fragmented, inconsistently governed, and tied to individual projects. This session will show how Drees & Sommer and AnkerDB built a centralized BIM data backbone using Autodesk Platform Services and Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud) to enable reliable automation and consistent data quality at scale. The collaboration started as a rapid proof of concept at DevCon 2025, was validated across multiple projects, and is now scaling at the business-unit level. The session will explain how Autodesk Forma data, Autodesk Platform Services software, and downstream systems were connected to support automated validation, data enrichment, analytics, integrations, and AI-supported workflows for cost management and lifecycle assessment (LCA).

Buildings use over 40% of all energy on the planet. Of existing buildings, 99% are small commercial and residential buildings that use 80% of all energy in buildings. Each building in this group is generally too small to be of interest to the traditional professional who uses Building Information Modeling (BIM) or conducts sophisticated energy analysis. So, how are we going to solve this problem? We mash up the latest in mobile hardware, cloud services, augmented reality, and reality capture technologies to produce a solution that enables anyone who is able to play Angry Birds on an Apple® iPad® to analyze a small building in a fun and accurate way.

New subscription-based features in Autodesk Revit software provide significant enhancements to integrated whole-building energy simulation powered by the Autodesk® Green Building Studio® cloud service. This demonstration will highlight the automatic creation of accurate energy model geometry from detailed Revit software elements, such as walls, floors, roofs, windows, etc. This eliminates the time and effort required to rebuild a separate energy model, leaving more time for design iteration and optimization. This class will also show how other energy analysis data, such as thermal properties of building materials and building/space function, can be defined in Revit for use in the energy simulation and how the Autodesk Green Building Studio cloud service supports a more collaborative energy analysis process between architects and engineers, leading to greater accuracy and better design optimization from the earliest stages in the process. Finally, the extensive validation work conducted on this new feature will also be presented. While knowledge of Revit will be beneficial for attendees, it is not a requirement.

Everything you need to know about BIM and firestop within a large project. How to design, coordinate and maintain firestop locations. This case study will showcase Hilti’s BIM Services at the PennFIRST Hospital in Philadelphia, PA. We partnered with the customer to improve their workflows and allow the installation process to match the BIM model. Before this, the customer had no way of tracking the product usage and productivity until the end of the project. With such a large IPD project, the customer wanted a new approach to their processes. We have provided services that include modeling the firestop locations based on the UL System matrix, uploading the model to BIM360 Glue, annotating the locations by floor and producing shop drawings. Attendees will gain the knowledge of a growing standard of care in the construction industry.

We deliver our projects differently from most building services companies. Our engineers generate project deliverables rather than CAD technicians. As such, the majority of engineers deliver projects in Revit software, creating intelligent models to meet clients’ requirements. We’ve been delivering projects in 3D for 10 years; however, only recently has the engineers’ preference become working in Revit rather than AutoCAD software. This shift is a result of the work completed throughout the last few years; engineers now believe delivering projects in Revit is the simplest and quickest method. We will guide attendees through the work we have undertaken to achieve this, looking at the easiest wins before moving to the more ambitious, including the development of bespoke tools. We will look at how we can automate boring tasks, giving engineers more time to be creative. We will touch on the issues we have experienced, cover tips and tricks we have discovered, and show how to maintain tools and resources once they are out in the “wild.”

The fast-growing network around unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), as well as the availability of cloud-based processing and analysis services, enables the emergence of a category of new workflows that disrupt the conventional surveying methods. By flying a UAV around a house or a building to capture aerial images, and by processing such images to produce meaningful 2D orthographic views and 3D data using Autodesk, Inc., photo-to-3D service, we have developed a complete solution that delivers the necessary reports in a fraction of the time and cost usually necessary to get such reports. Insurance adjusters are now being offered a completely new, automated solution that avoids using ladders to climb on roofs to measure or visually inspect them following a claim. Come and check out how this solution works, and how the same workflow can be applied to many other use cases and industries.

Designing secure Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers that integrate with Autodesk Platform Services requires choosing and implementing the right authentication strategy for each use case.
