Class Description

Increasingly ambitious building designs, the growing technical complexity of modern building envelopes, concern for more sustainable design, and mounting economic pressures are all leading the building industry to seek more efficient processes that improve predictability and control within a building project. The fabrication of building components is becoming increasingly prevalent in architecture, thus challenging ideas as to what is possible, how project information is created and consumed; and challenging the overall building industry to reevaluate its processes to become a more predictable, sustainable, and environmentally responsible business. This class will illustrate how Autodesk is addressing the digital exchange of design intent throughout the building process.

    Thanks again for including our industry in your presentations and courses. I've really enjoyed your blog (Elipsis) and all your YouTube (and other social network) offerings. Like Marty Short always says on his late night talkshow appearances, "Thanks for remembering"! 10-12-2009 6:09PM
