Spend more time designing and less time documenting by transitioning from a 2D to a 3D workflow. The benefits go beyond visualization aspects of 3D modeling. Creating a Building Information Model (BIM) will allow you to largely automate your workflow because BIM objects have built-in data that can be extracted using documentation tools. Sarah Barrett, Associate AIA and Senior Architect Product Specialist of Vectorworks will be explaining the purposes of the tools as well as how to efficiently document your model. Join this webinar to maximize your data automation and leverage smart tools for documentation and drawing.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
During COVID times, going out to movies and theaters has been put on hold. Just like home offices are a new trend, architects, designers, and contractors have seen a spike in new commissions based on renovating and transforming dead spaces into family entertainment rooms. In a new webinar series for residential interiors, join Wes Gardner, senior product specialist at Vectorworks, Inc., to learn how you can get these projects started in record time by adopting a new approach to producing drawings and takeoffs. If you are already familiar with digital drafting and have started integrating 3D modeling into your daily workflow, then this is the webinar for you.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Understanding site conditions and their relationship to the built environment is critical to successful architectural design.Having the ability to accurately represent, coordinate, and integrate site conditions into your workflow will increase opportunities for design and overall project success. Attendees will examine various tools for successful planning and modeling of sites, from the planning phase all the way through to construction documentation.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Join Paul Beaty-Pownall, managing director at bpr architects, as he explains how his office leverages 3D modeling to provide information at each stage of the design process. Attendees will explore this process through a case study example of proposals for a new train station at West Hampstead in London. Attendees will also learn how to structure a model to manage design changes and how to make the best use of the 3D environment to explore better design solutions.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Deliver better buildings faster and for less money with BIM. The biggest advantage of BIM capabilities lies with the owner. Our industry needs to continue to develop our delivery methods through the use of BIM, which gives our industry the ability to serve our clients better by establishing budgets much earlier in the process, reducing risk to the owner and virtually eliminating the “VE Stage” of a project. In this webinar, learn how to use BIM to accelerate schedules by involving sub-consultants earlier into our process and to reduce the cost through the elimination of the constant “round up” that takes place through the current system.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Designers are adopting new workflows to meet increasingly compressed project schedules and shrinking budgets without sacrificing the creative process. One of the most straightforward ways to make a change is through incorporating 3D modeling — facilitating a streamlined design process while allowing designers to focus on expressing their creative visions rather than solely producing documentation thanks to workflows that utilize intelligent, parametric objects.
This presentation will explore how to design 3D models and extract 2D documentation efficiently. Attendees will also examine the similarities and the differences between a traditional 2D design workflow and a modern 3D Modeling workflow, highlighting how the latter benefits project delivery and uncovering next steps for those wishing to begin transitioning from 2D to 3D.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Sharing your BIM with your consultants has many advantages including model checking and coordination. In the end, architects and engineers still have contractual obligations to produce a legal set of documents pertaining to a project being designed. In this training, you will learn how you can use various files from your consultants and put them to use with your architectural model to provide a fully integrated and coordinated set of drawings.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
The days of designing for a discrete project are numbered. Today's most forward-thinking architects are finding it their mission to go beyond their project — in terms of both space and time — to consider, and even encourage, land-use patterns in the surrounding area, and to anticipate, and even influence, future events and unexpected consequences. Join Sarah Barrett, architect product specialist at Vectorworks, Inc., as she illustrates practices of placemaking for land-use planning and intelligent urbanism. Attendees will explore three case studies that illustrate how implementing these placemaking practices can have a positive effect on both individuals and surrounding communities.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
When it comes to Building Information Modeling (BIM), one of the biggest benefits is greater collaboration with your project consultants. But what does this mean for project teams that use different software programs? And, more importantly, how can you take advantage of this improved collaboration? In this presentation, you'll learn how organizations can adopt standards based on the Open BIM initiative to achieve streamlined workflows, regardless of the software that is being used. Attendees will discover file-sharing methods such as the Reference Model workflow, as well as how ti integrate these methods with the BIM manager role. You'll also learn from a case study that proves the concept of Open BIM interoperability.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Algorithmic design tools are quickly becoming the standard of the AEC industry. They can bring endless opportunities for customization and automation with your design software and allow you more experimentation and optimization within your designs. Algorithmic design can be intimidating to a new user, but the most important thing you need to get started is a problem you want to solve. In this webinar, attendees will hear from Senior Architect Specialist, Sarah Barrett, Assoc. AIA and CEO and Designer of moveART Gmbh, Norbert Roztocki. They will go over some basics of algorithmic modeling, give some examples of scripts that you can build in BIM software, and look at some real-world algorithmic modeling success stories.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Building Information Modeling continues to become the industry standard, with many projects now requiring the delivery of BIM files. However, considering the implications of a BIM workflow only after starting said projects can lead to serious issues, which is why this presentation will expand upon the planning processes needed to adopt BIM in your firm. Attendees will also examine what a successful BIM transition looks like in practice through example case studies, exploring both why and how firms are already growing their businesses with BIM.
