The transformative power of BIM.
◦ Which specific thing in this course could not have been done with drawings alone?
◦ Which things were harder in a model than they would have been by hand?
Doing things by hand saves a lot of deliberation over working through a software and resolving errors when it comes to incorrect setups or learning the how to properly use the softwares tools which would have been spontaneously resolved (if even encountered) when modeling by hand. BIM, however, does require
Your building is a set of decisions, most made before you knew enough.
◦ Which decision are you most confident was right, and what evidence supports it?
◦ Which would you revisit, and what would you need to know first?
You produced roughly thirty deliverables across ten weeks.
◦ Which one taught you the most, and why?
◦ Which felt like busywork at the time and turned out to matter later?
Every model in this course was a simplification.
◦ What did your model never know about your building?
◦ At what point in a real project would those omissions become unacceptable?
What's next?
◦ Which part of this work would you want to do professionally?
◦ What is the biggest gap between what you can do now and what a practising professional does?
