BIM Manager on large hospital projects
We have used Archicad and BIMCloud to seamlessly connect multiple smaller companies, spread across four countries, to create detailed BIM models for a 70,000sq.m hospital project. It has also provided the ability to separate users into various groups an control access to specific files, making it easier to connect with consultants.
BIMx is also a great tool to present projects to clients straight from your smartphone in a lightweight package, even if it is a 70,000sq.m building.
Pros
The new Archicad 20 user interface is very clean and provides for ample screen real estate. Setting up large teamwork projects is very straightforward. Our BIMCloud teamwork server can handle large files with many users working at the same time, across five office locations seamlessly.
The addition of visual favourites makes the management of office standards extremely simple.
Cons
I don't like the fact that the stair builder tool is not as straightforward as it could be and that the process for making GDL objects requires a large amount of coding experience.
