Setup a sync between the Aconex Doc Register and Autodesk Docs (BIM 360 Document Management), using the Aconex PIF and Autodesk APIs.However, you can achieve the promise in the title of this post вЂ“ with a bit of work! They seem to deliberately resist platform-level integration with other tools like BIM 360 and Revizto. вЂ“ And yes VBA, VB, C#, python,вЂ¦ could do automation between BIM and CAD file, but why people(ware) didnвЂ™t plan and hadnвЂ™t empathy, compassion or stick to the BEP, crystal clear design contract to enforce/respect every parties to follow the agreement.First, letвЂ™s manage some expectations вЂ“ Aconex is generally viewed as a closed platform. Let try to imagine when local designer need to change a block 100 sheets in 100 files and different folder with long layer name. If someone has experience both platform, you would be known what the crazy things punch to stomach at lower part.

вЂ“ Another peaken one, lead design firm has still right 100% in their design and modeling asset every single element, they just export to be CAD File вЂњEvery single sheet for single fileвЂќ. They just looked at surreal work breakdown schedule and save their time and budget. TheseвЂ™re fake and freak BIM Method with unnecessary pressure for operation. Every time! when Lead designer updates design progress whether weekly or вЂ¦as per ownerвЂ™s request, local designer will be always updating model ver.2018 to 2019 before compare model changesвЂ¦checking with interoperability.

Moreover, Lead designer use Microstation and transfer to Revit 2018, but the owner need local designer to use lastest version as 2019. вЂ“ Project owner hired Foreign Design firm to design for them, and then having an instruction to the local designers each discipline to do parallelly such Lead designer firm stay in Prelim/DD 50% stage but the owner need! Tender package from local designer when Lead designer submit only 100% DD.

Now, if there was a way to create windows with an interface like the CW tool, sign me up! IвЂ™ll take the documentation hassle over the modeling hassle any day. Commercially, we generally use storefront for punched openings anyway. But for me, 9.5 times out of 10 the CW tool is the way to go. Those windows will also have to be a true punched opening. The only time IвЂ™d use a window family is if I know that a specific window manufacturer will be used and they provide quality Revit families for their products. If you donвЂ™t properly use grouping and CW types, you canвЂ™t accurately expect windows that should be the same size to be consistent. However, using the CW tool does create more difficulty with it comes to documenting common window sizes/configurations. The time it takes to create a custom window family, especially one that is parametric, to give you the look/layout a design requires, is a family modeling nightmare and IвЂ™ve yet to see a window family that gives you the creative flexibility that the CW tool provides. Certainly when it comes to sloped windows, or various mullion configurations, or different glazing options the CW tool saves a huge amount of time. This is clearly realized during design when a buildingвЂ™s window layout will constantly be changing. The CW tool for windows is so much easier and more flexible than creating window families.
