Module 4 - Points to Ponder

What types of building information are best portrayed in 3D views?

• Which stakeholders require 2D views, and why?

Give examples of how the building information for a specific location in the project needs to be filtered for different audiences and purposes?

It needs to be filtered so builders and stakeholders have the most accurate and up to date information possible.

Should your design ideas always be conveyed through photorealistic renders?

• How does the level of detail in the rendering and its presentation affect the perception of stakeholders reviewing your design?

No I don’t think the design ideas should always be conveyed through photorealistic renders. While it is helpful to have another angle and view on the build. I find that having other design views can be helpful to understand what is truly happening with the build.

Name some applications where viewing the building and model information in virtual reality or augmented reality would be most beneficial?

• Are there advantages to using a C.A.V.E as a virtual environment versus VR headsets?

How can schedule views be used to assist with procurement and model-based estimating?

Schedule views can be used to help the building know how much they are going to need for the building. It also allows for an accurate estimate of addition costs outside of the structural build of the building.
