© 2012 Autodesk Class Summary  This class will move you beyond the basics of the project execution plan and will examine collaboration practices that can help you better meet the expectations of improved coordination. The coordination tools that are available in Autodesk Revit software enable you to extend your established processes, and this class will provide the know-how to streamline the use of new techniques to augment your workflows. Successful coordination in Revit begins with the coordinate system, and we will cover project and shared coordinate setup along with coordinate alignment techniques. We will demonstrate several round-trip model exchanges to illustrate the best modeling techniques to ensure effective use of the Copy/Monitor and Coordination Review tools. We will also present additional view setup approaches using custom parameters to show you how to supplement the Coordination Review report. This class is a culmination of refining workflows over 6 years of collaboration with clients in Revit.

© 2012 Autodesk Learning Objectives At the end of this class, you will be able to:  Implement effective model sharing techniques between the Architect and sub-consultants  Understand Copy/Monitor options and best practices  Perform View setup techniques to supplement Coordination Review workflow  Execute modeling practices to ensure reliable use of Coordination Review

© 2012 Autodesk “STOP COLLABORATE AND LISTEN”  The Coordinate System is Key to Understand  Is the Architect Utilizing Project Internal or Shared Coordinates?

© 2012 Autodesk “STOP COLLABORATE AND LISTEN”  Copy / Monitor  It is not Bi-Directional  Maps Elements via Element ID’s  Do Not Delete & Redraw Copy/Monitored Elements  Have a Copy Monitor Plan and Stick to It

© 2012 Autodesk “STOP COLLABORATE AND LISTEN”  View Filters can Help Supplement Coordination Review  Establish a Plan on How to Control Link Visibility  Define the Elements to be Shown Thru Link  Communicate at which Phase Certain Elements Will Show Thru Link Accurately.

© 2012 Autodesk “STOP COLLABORATE AND LISTEN”  Model to How it Will Be Constructed  Consider Your Constraints on Interior Wall Partitions  Avoid Creating Openings with the Edit Wall Profile

© 2012 Autodesk “STOP COLLABORATE AND LISTEN”  Resolve Issues in Coordination Review After Each Model Exchange  Resolve Each Issue One Rule at a Time

© 2012 Autodesk “STOP COLLABORATE AND LISTEN”  Utilize the Project Relocate Tool when Necessary  Understand the Clipped vs. Unclipped Model State
