When rebar detailing is performed independently, it often results in costly conflicts and rework. In this session, we will examine a couple of reinforced concrete projects where our team was responsible for both rebar detailing and 3D coordination with other trades using Revit, Autodesk Forma, and Navisworks software. We’ll discuss how early involvement, shared modeling with trade partners, and continuous coordination enabled us to detect clashes, streamline installation processes, and minimize field delays. Additionally, we’ll explore how Revit facilitated model data management, effective communication, and the use of new rebar tools to enhance detailing accuracy and efficiency.

Forma Data Management is a cloud-based common data environment on the Autodesk Forma platform, facilitating concurrent collaboration between multiple users. Does working together on the same project pose challenges for the team, particularly when multiple users are working on the same set of drawings? Are you experiencing any synchronization issues while collaborating on the same project drawings? Do you encounter issues when notifications about one user's edits are not sent to the other users? Collaboration becomes significantly more productive when the system operates as anticipated and delivers instant results. With Forma Data Management project synchronization enhancement in AutoCAD Architecture software and AutoCAD MEP toolset now resolves the challenges and alleviates our burdens. The projects hosted on Forma Data Management now support automatic synchronization of changes across multiple users. Now two or more users can collaborate on a project across offices and locations. Users can identify if a drawing is available for editing or locked by others.

The ability to share relevant data with multiple stakeholders across different applications remains one of the most significant business challenges of our industry. Data Exchanges transfer granular information about models hosted in Autodesk Forma in a neutral format that allows you to build automated workflows across apps and services. You’ll learn how to create Data Exchanges from Revit software in Forma Data Management software, and build data flows to Microsoft Power BI using the new bridge to Power Automate. These data flows—traditionally made with sophisticated API investments—are now more accessible to nonprogrammer users.

We all have to start somewhere, and getting started is often the most difficult endeavor of all. In this class, we'll begin at the beginning, and look at how anyone can get started with Autodesk Forma. Come and see how the platform is more than just a construction tool for organizing and sharing project data. We'll look at Forma Data Management software and see how it may be used as a common data environment (CDE) that follows ISO 19650 procedures and respects the information management method defined in the standards. With Autodesk BIM Collaborate and Forma Design Collaboration, we can work collaboratively with Autodesk Forma. Also, we’ll take a look at Forma Build software's toolset for the management of all of our project information, as well as Forma Takeoff software's real-time estimation view.

Today, a new environment of open APIs has changed how data can be exchanged utilizing automation. Join industry experts that will share their experiences and perspectives on the common field-to-office exchanges, emphasizing heavy civil construction, connecting updated schedules and designs with machines through automated workflows.

This session will cover the "bare bones” setup of a Forma Data Management central file-sharing site with granular permissions for use by a construction team during building information modeling (BIM) coordination. A builder's construction technology manager will demonstrate how Autodesk Collaborate supported by Autodesk add-ins can be used as a shared on-demand syncing tool for teams that still favor Navisworks Manage to run clash detection between a diverse mix of trade partners working both in and out of the cloud. Autodesk technical experts will provide supplementary advice along the way to show how teams can make use of new features in the Autodesk Forma environment to take this strategy to the next level by removing roadblocks seen in previous versions of the product.

Sustainability and cost efficiency for residential building is more important than ever. We will present with our customer Haas an integrated workflow from the configurator, an automated detailed design process in Revit to fabrication and the construction site. This digital process allows prospects to visually configure and calculate any residential or family timber house. These visualization of the customer's request via the house configurator leads to a faster and high-quality discussion with the customer. Seamless transition from configuration to design in Autodesk Revit ensures that no extra detail design work must be carried out manually. That model is transferred into the fabrication process and finally all data is leveraged via BIM360/ACC BUILD on construction sites for project and quality management and daily logs.

AutoCAD (& verticals) Plant 3D, and Revit all have different workflows with ACC/BIM 360 projects and the Desktop Connector. After many challenging hours I believe I have finally found a way to explain the various ACC/BIM 360 workflows and would like to share this knowledge with everyone else who's also dealing with all these various workflows and collaboration options. Specifically, I'm going to cover working with Revit, Plant 3D, and Civil 3D (same workflows for AutoCAD) with ACC and/or BIM 360 projects. I'll also cover the Desktop Connector 15 and 16 and the differences we've encountered, good and bad.

The life of a model begins in design, or even in early concept stages, but it extends throughout the project lifecycle. It takes on new shape and functions. It's enriched as it progresses from one team to the next. And it acts as a living representation of the project long after handover. Join us as we discuss ways to break traditional silos between teams and use Autodesk's design and construction solutions to author, prepare, and use models. This interactive workshop presented by our product development team will focus on what's to come in Forma and beyond.
