One of the main ideas behind developing the AEC|BOLT platform regarding modeling business is eliminating the re-modeling of the same geometry in different media.
Up to this day, the regular practice in the industry keeps going on using AutoCAD. This practice may change in the future. Yet, nothing to consider for AEC|BOLT platform users. AEC|BOLT solutions are adaptable to any workplace.
Based on today’s common practice:
Once architectural drawings in “.dwg” format are received, there is no need for engineers to:
...
pass to any software environment to analyze and design
...
deliver the work to another colleague or stakeholder in the expected file format
repeat the very same steps of the design procedure in case of a revision to the project is received
...
In today's architectural industry, AutoCAD and Revit are the primary software tools commonly used. However, it is important to note that industry practices may evolve over time. Nevertheless, AEC|BOLT platform users can be confident in the adaptability and flexibility of AEC|BOLT solutions, which can seamlessly integrate into any workplace and accommodate different software preferences.
Considering the current practices:
When engineers receive architectural drawings in the ".dwg" format, they no longer face the need to:
Transition to another software environment for analysis and design purposes.
Convert their work into specific file formats to share with colleagues or stakeholders.
Repeat the same design steps when project revisions are received.
With AEC|BOLT, engineers can effortlessly continue their work within the AutoCAD environment throughout the entire workflow, including tasks such as modeling, analysis, design, and
...
the creation of construction drawings
...
and documents.
