At this year's AIA 2018 National Convention in New York, Autodesk is showcasing the transformative potential of cloud-connected design through its BIM 360 platform, energy analysis tools, and generative design innovations. From June 21 to June 22, you can experience these cutting-edge technologies firsthand at the Autodesk Pavilion, located at Booth #1257.
According to the latest AIA Firm Survey Report, Building Information Modeling (BIM) has become a standard practice among large architectural firms in the U.S., with many medium-sized firms also adopting it. Now, architects are taking BIM to the next level by leveraging the power of the cloud to connect data across every stage of a building project's lifecycle. This approach not only optimizes designs but also enables real-time access to crucial project information anytime, anywhere—a concept known as Connected BIM. During the convention, Autodesk will demonstrate its latest Connected BIM solutions, with a particular emphasis on BIM 360, its comprehensive platform for streamlining project delivery.
One highlight of the exhibition will be the debut of BIM 360 Design, formerly known as Collaboration for Revit. This new service offers cloud-based worksharing, enhanced design collaboration, and robust data management for architectural teams. With BIM 360 Design, Autodesk Revit users can co-author shared models in the cloud, fostering seamless teamwork across multiple offices, disciplines, and joint ventures.
AECOM, a global leader in architecture and engineering, has already seen significant benefits from adopting BIM 360. Russ Dalton, Americas Director of Building Information Modeling at AECOM, noted, "Our team utilized BIM 360 during the design and engineering phases of a major healthcare project, resulting in substantial cost savings due to advanced collaboration. The ability to engage in ongoing, real-time digital design coordination reviews saved countless hours for all stakeholders, allowing us to focus on critical design challenges while setting up contractors and owners for long-term success. BIM 360 has truly revolutionized our workflow."
Visitors to the Autodesk booth will also encounter a captivating installation called the Photoelastic Pavilion. Designed by Autodesk graduate interns, this structure explores how materials react to natural forces like wind and pressure. Constructed using custom photoelastic panels made from cross-laminated polarized film and plastic, the pavilion reveals internal stresses visible to the naked eye. Prototyped and fabricated at Autodesk's BUILD Space in Boston, the pavilion was created using Dynamo, a powerful generative design tool, and prepared for manufacturing with the HowickMaker plugin for Dynamo. The result is a visually striking piece that invites attendees to explore the intersection of art and technology.
Another exciting aspect of the convention will be a special event on June 21 hosted by the AIA 2030 Commitment and the AIA Codes and Standards group. ASHRAE President Bjarne Olesen will discuss the importance of early collaboration between architects and engineers to create energy-efficient buildings. As part of Autodesk's Connected BIM strategy, Insight, a cloud-based building performance analysis tool within Revit, ensures consistent data flow regarding a building's energy performance throughout the design process. This integration empowers both architects and engineers to work collaboratively from concept to construction and beyond.
For firms committed to sustainability, Autodesk is enhancing its support for AIA 2030 Signatories. The Design Data Exchange (DDx), developed in partnership with AIA, automates AIA 2030 data reporting, eliminating the hassle of manual submissions. Future developments will expand the API's capabilities, providing richer data insights and practical guidance for practitioners. Measurement and reporting remain essential to achieving AIA 2030 Commitment goals. D/P/S, a U.S.-based multidisciplinary design firm, discovered that their projects achieved an average predicted EUI 47.7% lower than national benchmarks after analyzing nearly one million square feet of new construction. Brandon Garrett, an associate/architect at D/P/S, highlighted that their existing sustainable design methods have proven effective, and with tools like Insight, they can strive for even greater environmental impact.
Finally, don't miss the opportunity to interact with product experts, designers, and artists at the Autodesk booth. Explore the future of collaboration in the cloud and gain hands-on experience with BIM 360 through live demonstrations and interactive sessions. Whether you're an architect, engineer, or industry professional, there's something for everyone at AIA 2018. Join us in New York to discover what's next in design innovation!
