    This is the second in an ongoing series of "BIM for Small Projects", where architects sharing their experiences. View the first webinar.

    There is a widely shared perception that small firms and sole practitioners cannot take advantage of Building Information Modeling due to such factors as its cost, complexity, training time, and productivity for small projects. These case studies, presented by architects who work in small firms or as sole practitioners, will demonstrate how BIM has enhanced their practices and enabled them to create excellent projects. This session is scheduled to have two Revit and one ArchiCAD users to speak.

    Learning Objectives

    1. Learn how small practices are making innovative and productive use of BIM.
    2. Learn how such practices are using BIM to offer integrated design and construction services to their clients.
    3. Compare how various BIM platforms (Revit, ArchiCAD, Vectorworks, Bentley Architecture, for example) perform in a small practice environment.
    4. Learn how your practice can implement BIM in a way that meets your specific needs and helps you achieve your goals.
