Much has been written about how Autodesk ate it's own dogfood (man, I hate that saying, but it works) with the use of BIM and IPD for our new AEC HQ here in Waltham. But I thought it was worth pointing out the recent article in Metropolis, particularly the breakdown of upgrades that were made possible by savings realized by IPD (such as nicer finishes, custom lighting and exposed mechanicals - which are helpful when scratching our heads over certain MEP workflows!) Also, the BIM(x) blog just posted Tocci's take on the process, which includes a summary of LEED credits and the complete Platinum score card. See if you can spot a certain co-blogger in one of the photos...
And speaking of facilities, all of Autodesk is shutting down for the week of the Thanksgiving holiday here in the States. So, blogging may dip in our post-feast stupors. See you in December! _tom
