Which building information is best conveyed in 3D, and which still requires 2D?
◦ Which stakeholders need 2D drawings, and why has that not gone away?
◦ Give an example of something in your building a 3D view fails to communicate.
The same location needs to be shown differently to different audiences.
◦ How would information at one spot be filtered for a client, a contractor, a code official and a fabricator?
◦ What is the risk of showing everyone the same view?
View templates enforce consistency across a set.
◦ What goes wrong on a real project when views are configured individually?
◦ Who should own the templates and standards, and why?
Your schedules pull information straight out of the model.
◦ How can schedules support procurement and model based estimating?
◦ What is the danger of a schedule that is accurate about the model but wrong about the building?
◦ What did your calculated field reveal that the plans did not?
You published two versions and compared them.
◦ Why does version history matter more on a shared model than a personal one?
◦ If a consultant says their work was based on last week's version, what do you need to be able to tell them?
◦ When should a model be formally issued rather than just saved?
