Spent today working through the BIM Protocol with a client. Why isn't this simpler? Their legal team decided it's too much of a risk - if anything in the Particulars overrides a scope of services it takes precedence. Level Of Information Need was the final straw.

Information requirements should be exactly that. Don't ask for a monthly report, but if you need reports, what information do you need in it? If you want views to be retained in the models, state it as a requirement! Simple stuff guys.

Anyone else encountered problems with the latest #IFC exporter for Revit 2022? 22.6 appears to have issues with custom settings (export aborts, can't delete custom settings, etc) Downgraded to 22.5 and all is now OK again c/c Angel Velez

For anyone who is at the BIM Coordinators Summit tomorrow, come along to my session on Stage 4 at 11:35 explaining why "BIM Coordination" doesn't exist. Come and say hi, or heckle! #BCS2023

Looking forward to this! So much to explain in such a short period of time. It will be a really informative session for anyone who has to report on data and progress for their projects.

OMG just signed up to the first procurement site ever to have Consultant BIM as an option. Are we finally becoming recognised as a separate discipline?!

Hey Autodesk Revit when using the IFC export settings for COBie 2.4 MVD - where are the additional properties from the Company Info & Project Info supposed to end up? They don't seem to make it into the IFC at all...?

Nigel Davies (@nigelpdavies) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Genuine question, not a test: does anyone know if COBie 2.4 requires all spaces to be in at least one zone? i.e. can a space be zoneless even if all others are part of a zone?

A new post in the Evolve Consultancy Exporting #IFC series. Looking at how to resolve the mismatch between data stored in the #COBie Extension but not the IFC. evolve-consultancy.com/revit-ifc-expo…
