Introduction to BIM for construction management is designed to give you the skills for the tasks you’ll encounter during the design and planning stages of a construction project. Discover how 3D modeling in Revit impacts construction project planning. You’ll learn how to use mass modeling as a means of achieving conceptual cost estimates and use the same data to inform and drive ongoing design decisions. Gain core skills in model federation and 4D simulations in Navisworks before taking on tasks such as clash detection, reporting, and creating simple quantity takeoffs in Autodesk Construction Cloud.
