Here's a few things that have come up lately regarding importing dwg data: Revit imports from Model Space unless there is nothing in Model Space. Save details as single cad files not composite "sheets" of details. It then asks if you'd like to import the stuff it finds in paper space.

This is where Building Information Modeling (BIM) comes into play, and BIM managers are the ones tasked with connecting teams and improving coordination between them. I continued grading until 2015, then went to school for drafting and design, where I was introduced to Autodesk products and BIM. We have taken the role of visionaries.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) has become an industry standard on complex construction projects. As more Construction owners reap the benefits of BIM, more projects add a modeling component. Then you can mold your own model of a BIM professional without any “bad habit” baggage.

Flatcad was first called CAD/CAM (Computer Aided Drafting and Manufacture) then it lost the CAM when Architecture started to claim ownership, but added another D for Design. Which means I am no longer a parasite, or am I? Then there is the acronym. You can hardly be a good BIMmer without having your own twist on the acronym.

In my opinion the phrase Building Information Modeling (BIM) was born in part because Autodesk desperately needed to differentiate ADT/ACA from Revit, at least as BIM is defined and expressed by Autodesk. since AutoCAD is a superior drafting tool it isn''t sensible to use Revit for basic drafting tasks".

The other issue is when the data in the CAD file is small enough in extents but really far away from the files origin, according to the WCS which is all Revit really pays any attention to. This manifests itself in snap icons that appear to miss the element we are attempting to reference in the CAD file. Yes, that's 69 million.

Sure we benefit from the modelling effort in architecture and structure but we can still benefit from the effort without them. Why assume that there is no value in creating a model of the MEP scope of work even if the architect doesnt use Revit? Modeling a project reveals more than doing one in 2D. Nice insight Steve.

The first thing is I dont think the next big innovation will really be in what we might call the traditional "CAD (Computer Aided Design)" space.

This means that you could end up with many objects all over your model, that should theoretically look alike, but don't actually, because their properties have been overridden at the object level. Since we're dealing with detail components, I'm actually completely OK with having their graphic appearance be completly unmanaged.
