I have recently come back from some very exciting BIM 360 training in Germany and thought I’d share a brief overview on the principles of the series of BIM 360 applications from Autodesk.
The BIM 360 family is Autodesk’s answer to a more connected, agile and all-encompassing cloud based BIM workflow. Each BIM 360 application is aimed at a segment of a construction projects life-cycle with cross accessibility to neutralise re-work, creating a well paved path for BIM projects. The below image is from the Autodesk website and outlines the applications, where they sit in a project’s timeline and their overlapping uses. Each BIM 360 application can be used independently so there is no requirement to have the entire BIM 360 family.
Having come from the construction industry, I am no stranger to the hang ups people have about BIM, the word or the process. But to nut shell my take on where I believe BIM to be key is communication, something that is strained by today’s global market (in my experience even an office wall can do the trick). BIM 360 applications are cloud based and available on laptops, iPads and iPhones making them the perfect tools for every aspect of project communication wherever you are in the world.
