We sat down with Mostafa Saber , BIM & Design Manager at Diamond Developers as he walked us through his career journey, the challenges he faces while modernising and his vision for the future of construction. I started my career as an architect in my home city, Cairo, Egypt in 2004. From then, there was no looking back.

With 3D printers now capable of printing building walls and processing cement, the technology could help reshape construction as we know it. Some other popular additive technologies include selective laser sintering (SLS), fused deposition modeling (FDM) and direct metal deposition (DMD). Construction took just 17 days.
It is an awesome way to resolve little matters when people are all out of the model.

Sure we benefit from the modelling effort in architecture and structure but we can still benefit from the effort without them. Why assume that there is no value in creating a model of the MEP scope of work even if the architect doesnt use Revit? Modeling a project reveals more than doing one in 2D. Builds and Updates.

In this image the massing has been created aligned with the "site" but weve realized that it would be easier to document if Project North were aligned along one building edge.

These divisions, while relevant to the architectural model, are ruining the possibilities of creating gbXML files without extensive work on the part of the engineer to remove the room separation lines, and then repair the damage done to the room names and numbers. Joe - in the examples he offered it isn't "poor" modeling.
In any case, this is certain: Digitization on the building site and in the offices for planning and administration must and will progress faster. With the latest information and communication technologies, business processes and business models have become more efficient or even completely new ones are developed.

Wall Floor Interaction and Linked Models. When we have architecture and structure in separate Revit models we end up with somewhat clumsy graphics in wall sections. This is more pronounced if the structural slab is in the structure model only. The issue is the same when interior walls are linked into a shell model.
Poor interoperability of information has been a perennial problem for professionals in architecture, engineering, construction and asset operation and maintenance for decades. There has been a lot of progress on the first three, but, sadly, much less on how information can be exchanged between systems.
Rooms and areas can be deleted in model views like floor plans and ceiling plans. Revit warns us that they have been deleted from the model but they are still listed in schedules. Builds and Updates. Blog Listing - BIM and Misc. Site Information. Copyright Information. ► 2004. (2). Older Post.

I used a pair of model lines (assigned to Invisible) to govern the location of the arc and line endpoints. In the thread at AUGI the member that started it all replied that he figured out how to solve it after reading a post at BIM & BEAM. What you describe as working doesn't work on the model lines in my example.
