| | Just out of curiosity, has anyone stumbled across Revit symbols packages for low-voltage devices? We haven't...but we are definitely looking.

| I agree. There is definitely a need out there. We have been forced to create our own, which is a very time consuming process.
Does anyone know any manufacturers providing BIM low voltage objects? |

| | Ironically, I have recently been getting emails from low voltage manufacturers (generally as part of Consultant Liaison type program affiliations). We are not currently considering BIM/Revit. Here's an excerpt from a recent Siemon Co. email I received. " Models available in multiple BIM formats (Revit, DWF, AutoCAD 3-D, ACIS 3-D) at: http://www.siemon.com/us/download/bim.asp Global network infrastructure expert Siemon announces the availability of online Building Information Modeling (BIM) models at http://www.siemon.com/us/download/bim.asp. Including an assortment of key Siemon network racks, enclosures, cable management products and connectivity, the models are provided in multiple formats for optimal compatibility with today's leading BIM software programs. This online BIM database is continually updated, with new products and product revisions, ensuring that users can utilize the most up-to-date and accurate models in their BIM designs . . . " For those who would like to know more about BIM (building information modeling) and Revit for the AEC design community, try a few of these links, or do a google search on "Autodesk BIM" or "Autodesk Revit". there are numerous short duration video clips as well (with a bit of searching). Here's a list of related white papers as well: http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=12602425 Revit disussion forums: http://discussion.autodesk.com/forums/category.jspa?categoryID=115 - Todd |
