REVIT PURE IS EVOLVING INTO BIM PURE
Nicolas Catellier recently unveiled BIM Pure, the evolution of Revit Pure , slated for release on February 7, 2024. Having aided 2 million users in the past 7 years, Revit Pure's successor promises an enriched BIM experience through expert-driven content. Celebrating the launch, Catellier offers a 20% discount to waitlist subscribers on the BIM Pure website. The platform aims to enhance Autodesk Revit and BIM learning with online courses, template collections, live masterclasses, and industry expert insights.
I also recommend watching a great video by Nicholas with an interview with Marcello Sgambelluri.
SpeckleCon 2023: AEC Implementations and Speckle Add-ons
Lachmi Khemlani 's recent blog post underscored the latest advancements in the Speckle platform, an open-source AEC technology cloud facilitating real-time data exchange across various AEC applications. By eliminating proprietary file formats, Speckle fosters seamless collaboration among team members. The post delved into how AEC firms like 奥雅纳 and Bollinger+Grohmann harness Speckle to enhance workflows, achieve interoperability, optimize design processes, etc.
BIM for everyone
Building Information Modeling (BIM), a complex concept often misunderstood outside the construction industry, prompted Magdalena Niemiec to reflect on the need for simplification. Simplifying BIM benefits stakeholders by enhancing comprehension of building plans, promoting collaboration, and facilitating active client participation in decision-making. This approach minimizes errors, streamlines communication, and increases accessibility for smaller projects. Real-life examples underscore the consequences of construction errors, emphasizing BIM's crucial role. Magdalena Niemiec proposes defining BIM as a virtual construction site, emphasizing its process-driven nature. Simplifying BIM is vital for widespread understanding, collaboration, and efficiency in construction
Compute differences of model versions with DiffTool extension of APS Viewer
Xiaodong Liang 's blog highlights the DiffTool extension in APS Viewer as a handy tool for comparing changes between two model versions.
How this Landscape Firm Harnesses Real-Time Visualization to Spark Clients' Imaginations
Dinnie Muslihat , in a recent blog post, details Marpa, a landscape architecture and construction firm's journey with Enscape, a real-time visualization plugin. While initially using Vectorworks for rendering, Marpa found Enscape to be a game-changer due to its environmental quality. Project Manager Brian Deck highlights Chaos Enscape 's user-friendly interface with SketchUp and Vectorworks for Mac, emphasizing its efficiency in placing objects and adjusting textures, particularly beneficial for landscaping visuals.
DirectContext3D, Ids and Linked Section Elements
Jeremy Tammik 's recent blog post delves into diverse topics related to Revit development, offering accessible insights. One segment explores the compilation of Revit element IDs, shedding light on identifiers like Element ID, Episode ID, Unique ID, DWF GUID, IfcGuid, and External ID. Another addresses the uniqueness of cross-document references, emphasizing the likely uniqueness due to the embedded Unique ID. The post also spotlights Alex Pytel's Autodesk University class on DirectContext3D, a crucial resource for utilizing the DirectContext3D API in displaying external graphics. Lastly, it tackles the challenge of identifying elements in a section view using tagging.

The Importance of Giving Your Data Meaning
Artur Tomczak 's blog highlights the challenge of data misalignment in AEC projects, despite tools like Rhino Inside and Speckle easing data exchange. The problem lies in the lack of clarity in exchanged data, hindering efficiency. To tackle this, the blog suggests using data dictionaries—collections of name definitions and properties—to provide meaning and guidance. bSDD, a buildingSMART International solution, offers reusable dictionaries, streamlining data interpretation. With over 75 organizations publishing dictionaries, integration tools like Plannerly and usBIM aid in selecting codes for models. bSDD complements IFC by extending capabilities, promoting true data interoperability for a more comprehensible and efficient future.
