| Business Need |
“For the sake
of collaboration within the company, we wanted to use Revit for precast
projects. But we were struggling with a great deal of manual work, especially for
creating shop drawings from the models,” notes Henrik
Thingbø, a structural engineer at Norconsult. The solution had to automate the creation of shop
drawings that were in line with Norconsult’s own preferences and standards. It
also had to be user-friendly enough for use by any team member without need for
special training. |

| Business Need | New projects required Smith brothers Group to place seismic hangers on pipework with construction grade (LOD 400) detail. They needed to place complex equipment in very limited overhead spaces and ensure a clash-free model. The solution had to be compatible with Autodesk® Revit® and support the incorporation of Trimble points for on-site positioning and layout. And the company always prefers innovative solutions that offer a competitive edge. |
