BLDG-SIMMERS -


My apologies for the late notice, but our lab is broadcasting our monthly BSUG presentation (4th wed of the month, typically) on the various Revit export options to 3rd party daylight simulation programs.  See below for details:


Date: Feb 26, 12.00-13.00 (MT)


Register:  https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/3390430222254243841?

Description: As Revit evolves and gains more embedded analytical capabilities, its ability to perform daylight analysis is also rapidly evolving.  Currently two main workflows exist.  The traditional workflow exports geometry and material characteristics from Revit into 3rd party daylight simulation software.  Autodesk is rapidly developing a second pathway that allows analysis directly within Revit via a plugin.  This month's BSUG will focus on the export workflow, while March's BSUG will speak towards embedded daylight analysis capabilities within Revit.

Autodesk has made great strides to streamline the export process for Revit to 3rd party daylight analysis programs.  Currently, Revit models can be exported as a GBXML file, a .dxf, or a .dwg.  This presentation will cover the strengths and weaknesses of each pathway, while also featuring a demo of each export procedure.
