Description

Enter a brief paragraph (5 to 7 sentences) describing the features of your proposed design that you'd like to highlight here...

This preliminary structural design provides a robust and strong frame for the iconic office building that will soon characterize the skyline in Mountain View! For the purposes of this assignment (as was indicated in the assignment prompt), the contour of the central atrium (figure '8' shape) was mostly ignored due to complexity but cantilever beams would be added around the atrium's contour to provide support to the curtain wall in this area. This same approach can be seen implemented in the model along the curved perimeter of the building. The structural frame is comprised of footings, steel columns, steel beams and beam systems, and structural walls around the main staircase, providing a safe shelter location in the event of an emergency.

Using BIM 360 Model Coordination

  1. Upload your architectural and structural models to your folder on BIM 360 Documents, then copy them into the subfolder named Coordination Space.
  2. Switch to the Model Coordination tool.
  3. Create a new View that merges a 3D view from both your architectural and structural models.
  4. Open the new view, and use the BIM 360 model viewing environment to navigate to an interesting camera viewpoint. Then, create an Issue to share this viewpoint.
    1. Click the Issues button in the left navigation bar to display the saved issues.
    2. Click the Create Issue button to create a new one.
    3. Click a location in the model viewer to place a push pin.
    4. Enter info for this issue:
      • Change the Type to Design
      • Enter a Title
      • Assign the issue to Wilfrido Martinez
    5. Click the Create button to save your issue and send it to the assignee.
  5. Repeat these steps to create three issues sharing interesting viewpoints within your merged models.
