![]() Share the conceptual design and have all relevant parties use the Issue Tracker. Engaging all relevant stakeholders as early as possible helps everyone-it increases buy-in and allows for all voices to be heard and for there to not be the dreaded 80 percent complete start-over. It’s a well-noted fact that changes are more difficult (expensive) the further into the design process the team is. Let all of your stakeholders see what reality is before you push through to construction documents. Design Buy-In – the reality of this industry is that everything is pushing toward 3D.This is a tremendously difficult thing to do without Revizto as you’re constantly left working between three technologies. Construction Issue Tracking – the ability to tag voice, video, and picture allows for anyone on the site to note any construction-related activities.The three uses I see as most impactful here: My favorite feature here: all Issues are tagged to a real location, which means there’s never confusion about where issues exist in real space. The Issue Tracker allows anyone on the team to be notified of items important to them. Don’t think of “issues” just in the general sense of “deficiencies” or “issues” and you’ll be able to expand the capabilities of the software exponentially. The Issue Tracker allows anyone on the project team to add comments that are tagged to any location in the model. The single-most useful portion of the Editor is the Issue Tracker (which also is accessible in the Viewer). The editor also allows for combining models to include multiple data sources (think Revit and Civil 3D data together). This process is all preparation-it allows for cross-sectional cuts to occur (in plane or a box), which is particularly useful for site design folks. This is also where the model can be further stylized to match the desire of the designer for viewing. For our Revit friends it also includes all of the Object Data that was created within these packages. This includes all data that was created in any of the Autodesk software packages such as material of the ground or pipe. The Revizto Editor is where models are converted to the Revizto file format and style. InfraWorks provides this capability, so the ability to use the Issue Tracker (which I’ll talk about at length shortly) is alive and well for more than Civil 3D and Revit.īefore I get into the interaction and workflow with Civil 3D, a bit of information about the individual components so the interaction is more completely understood. Although not specifically advertised, Revizto will consume any model in. It offers the ability for stakeholders to explain what they like/don’t like and where they are concerned in a real space. ![]() This does mean some limitations in interaction with Revizto for true construction modeling, but it also means it’s an area for innovation! The interaction with InfraWorks is also intriguing as a possibility for communication with clients on a level greater than just model viewing and phone calls. ![]() ![]() Realistically, we are not using a true BIM solution to create construction documents in the civil space, and InfraWorks is only for concept planning. The overall goal is to enable engaged communication during the construction process using a true BIM model, but with a lot of additional value throughout the design process. ![]() Users are able to take AutoCAD®, Revit®, SketchUp®, and NavisWorks® files directly into Revizto seamlessly. The software is divided into three major areas: the Editor, the Viewer, and the Workspace. Revizto™, developed by Vizerra, is at its core collaboration in a 3D environment-think InfraWorks visual engine with the ability to share data with anyone who has the Revizto Viewer (free) and understands what they’re thinking about the data. I want to spend a bit of time on one of those (although it does technically “add-in” to Autodesk AutoCAD® Civil 3D®. However, when there is a software package that enhances the workflow in a way that internal tools cannot, I’m on board. I love attempting to make the software I already have do what I want to do. Back August 7th, 2015 A Better Process for Construction and Design Input using Civil 3D and ReviztoĪs a bit of background, I’m not a big add-on person. ![]()
