I built something and I need people to try it and tell me honestly what they think.

Free automations that creates IFC/IM models from simple geometry & attribute data. You don’t need a CAD license or a lot of BIM experience.

Descargue en https://github.com/IPedrax/BIMCraft , abri un modelo que tengo en Rvt 2017 de la casa farnsworth y esto es lo que importo.

Es una excelente oportunidad de trabajar en modelado en un entorno familiar con las herramientas que crearon.

for those of you using pyrevit to connect Claude to your revit using mcp, are you getting permission from your bosses or org to use it? I’m not sure who to reach out in my org in regard to data privacy. Or are you all buying your own api Claude keys? I’ve heard a lot of comments from people using this in their firms but idk anyone in mine who’s doing this and not sure if I’ll be penalized to do that if I allow Claude to read the revit models

would really appreciate any insight on this

Hi All,

I am starting a new position as BIM Coordinator on data center project. I have been working on infrastructure and industrial projects throughout my career as BIM Coordinator. If anyone is working on data centre, I was wondering if there are other project specific BIM/VDC workflows besides or in addition to model coordination, clash detection, scan to BIM, 4D sequencing and etc.

Structural draftsman here (20+ years in reinforced concrete). I built Framboise, a free online 3D IFC viewer that lets you open IFC models directly in your browser, with nothing to install. I'd love feedback from BIM folks: what's missing, what breaks? https://scherer-be.fr

So I connected Claude to Revit 2026 today via the PyRevit MCP server…Just started with a scan of an existing floor plan and tested whether it could create it…I’m really blown away by the results. It took what would have probably taken me over a day to create and did it in just a little over an hour…

Were there mistakes? Sure, but it gave me a really good start.

Who else has tested this? What have you been able to do? What ideas do you have for using it? Sounds silly, but it has made me excited to get back to work tomorrow…

Hello everyone,

Ive got a project, mid rise residential, with multiple apartment types.

So I tried to model my interior wall finishes by using the "place by room", "auto join" option, but then i see that i get these wall join issues and i tried a few tips here and there and nothing worked and it seems like this method is a bad practice in general for this kind of project.

What would you think is the best practice to model these interior wall finishes given that the project contains multiple finish types and sometimes these finishes have varying heights.

Thanks everyone in advance

When a design change arrives late in coordination, updating the model is only part of the work. There’s also figuring out which resolved clashes need to be reopened, what other disciplines need to check, and whether issued drawings are affected.

How does your team manage that without repeating the entire coordination cycle?

Do you review the affected areas first, or rerun the full clash tests? Who decides how much rechecking is needed, especially when the deadline hasn’t moved?

Also curious how you document the impact on time and scope. What looks like a small change in one model can create a fair amount of work elsewhere.

Would like to hear what has worked for your team, particularly when the change comes after an area has already been signed off.

First post here. Every project I've worked on started the same way: open last project's MIDP, delete half of it, rename everything to the new code and hope nothing breaks. On my last job that took me two days and we still ended up with duplicated sheet numbers.

So I built a free tool that does that first draft: kalma.build/midp-generator

Pick building type, disciplines, stages (RIBA, AIA, HOAI or your own) and naming (ISO 19650 or custom), and you get an Excel with the deliverable list, codes already built, grouped by discipline. No account, it just asks for an email to send the file.

It won't be perfect, you'll still edit it. It just skips the blank page.

Full disclosure: it's part of Kalma, a tool I am building to track MIDP/TIDPs during the project (with ACC links). The generator works on its own though. Will be glad to grant early access if it soung useful for you.

Two questions:
- What's missing for your discipline?
- How do you manage your MIDP today?

If they don’t have the degree in the industry? My brother is looking to switch into the AEC industry in the Midwest, and he currently has a degree in something completely unrelated. How would he begin to do this? I’m in the MEP industry so I feel like I can potentially help him land a role but he first needs to know how to do it. Can anyone advise?

Hello everyone,

So I tried to model my interior wall finishes by using the "place by room", "auto join" option, but then i see that i get these wall join issues and i cant seem to be able to get around it.

I have a view template active.
And I cant use the wall join display option at all.

Thanks everyone in advance

Revit isn't an option for me, and I recently discovered this extension. I'm starting from scratch and I'm curious about its capabilities. I know it's good for 3D models and renders, but what I'm most interested in is creating many plans for large projects, does anyone use it for that? And how did you learn to use it?

We are seeing a glut of AI bot account posting about some revit clone they vibe coded in a week. None of the software is good or viable and all the accounts are brand new. Can we stop allowing posting from these brand new accounts that aren’t contributing?

I’m looking into getting into BIM as I’ve just started as a part 1 architectural assistant, and realise how important and beneficial it’ll be to broaden my skillset early on, and to be honest the whole technical side seems far more interesting to me.

Just looking for any advice on how to get into it early on, any good/ cheap beginner courses or ways to get a cheapish or free revit license to practice, I used revit for about 4 years for modelling but never used it to its full ability, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone!
I’m looking to improve my BIM skills, especially in Revit. Does anyone know where I can find sample architectural, structural, or MEP drawings to practice modeling?
I’d love to work on some real-world projects, starting from 2D drawings and turning them into BIM models.
Any free resources, sample projects, or recommendations would be really appreciated. Thanks!

Hello all!

I just graduated with a BA in architecture (UK) and i was thinking on going into BIM.

I made this post a few months ago and i feel that AI has changed every field of work so much in the past few months that it will be worth checking with everyone here again what advice you have for someone like me not only new to the arch insdustry but to BIM in general.

Is it worth it? i am about to start a course with a certified autodesk trainer on REVIT for architecture.

Any tips on how i should apply to jobs to highlight my application?

Thank you all! appreicate all the help and knowladge you can provide me with!

I am an ELV System (Extra Low Voltage System) AutoCAD drafter/designer. I work for a Low Voltage/ security system vendor. My job involves creating block diagrams, security system cabinet GA & wiring, junction box & field devices GA & wiring, typical installation drawings, interconnection drawings etc. We don't do site layout drawings as we are vendors and not installation contractors.

I work on Oil & Gas site projects now. I want to move into BIM and work in the Datacenter/network infrastructure field.

Any advice would be helpful. Because I am clueless.

I'm a co-founder of a startup MovingAtoms, that turns LiDAR scans into Revit models automatically — scan in, editable model out, at a fraction of the usual time and cost. I'm genuinely curious how people here see this playing out. Does automation eat the bread-and-butter scan-to-BIM work, or does it just move the value upstream — to QA, complex geometry, and the jobs that actually need a human? If you run a BIM shop, what would you do differently?
