Building Information Modeling (Revit) files elliptipar Building Information Modeling (Revit) files The Lighting Quotient is in the process of developing a full library of Revit BIM objects. Files currently available for ellpitipar product are posted below. If you need a file that is not shown, contact us and we will do our best to supply it. Each of our catalog pages will correspond to one Revit Family File (.rfa). We are developing our Revit Files to include all the options for that specific catalog page. SIMPLE files are smaller and contain all the information included in the RENDER files, except photometry. RENDER files are larger because photometry is included. A REFLECTOR TILT parameter is included in all of our Revit Family Files for adjustable luminaires. FIXTURE FINISH and PENDANT/CANTILEVER length parameters may also be changed manually using the steps outlined above. To keep the files sizes reasonable, Revit Family Files represent simplified fixture models that do not include all hardware. Click here for outdoor Style

CADD Manager You notice something. Then you become concerned. Then it becomes an “Issue”. These are the steps of items evolving beyond annoyance, anomaly or abstraction. How things move from Noticed to a Concern If you notice something, you keep your eye on it and address it when it first looks to be a concern. After investigating things you notice, if they are bigger than you think or have greater impact, they move to concerns. But when do people come and talk to you about troubling items? How things move from Concern to Issue Moving from concern to issue happens when something along the pathway of correction fails to work. Things get to the issue level by being ignored. Things get to an issue level when you are not made aware of them. Things get to an issue level when your corrective measures are not enough. Next up… When Issues Descend into Failure

Autodesk University 2012 Class Schedule in a nice Excel spreadsheet With over 800 classes, it's just about impossible to dissect the schedule for the classes you want to take. So, I made a nice schedule that is sorted by day, then by time slot, then by track type. That way, you can quickly pick a time slot and see all of the architecture, design, BIM or other classes you want to take. For an extra bonus, there's are columns showing keywords like Revit, Navisworks, BIM, IPD, etc, so you can filter for what you're looking for. You better hurry as classes are already filling up. Our company has 4 classes and one has already been maxed out, but we're hoping for a larger room for more people. Here's the link for the spreadsheet.
