So we all know what Autodesk says it can be used for and yes we all have tried something's here and there, but basically, what have you specifically have been involved with on a project.. Not what other's have....
Some of the items below I've heard others using, and some I'm just guessing is what we could do with it, but I'm not exactly expecting anyone to have done it...
So let's begin...
On a project, from the design team side drafting up the model with the intent to coordinate in the fashion of... (Check all that apply)
1. With No one. Just because..... Drafted anyway you wanted to... not intended to be sent to anyone else but kept in company...
2. The collision detection model. The generic 3D intent located where the final product will be just to make sure there is space and another trade or all are not taking up said space... Not very fancy not very 'big'... Sent to someone holding the 'master' model
3. Render quality. Using manufacture specific products or specific 3d shapes and sent to others in the design team for the same basic reason on their side... Size unlimited
4. For coordination with the contractor indirectly, in that the contractor built their own model so they can physically build the building.
5. For Coordination with the contractor directly, in that the contractor expected you to make the model for them to physically build the building.
6. The owner requesting specific meta data to be included because they intend to use the model for future needs. (in some way helping building maintenance)
7. The owner requesting the model for future design work. So they can just have it, if nothing else, with the possible intent to give to the next design team...
8. Other. Hay there crazy... Yes you that set up this poll, you forgot this reason.... B-)
Open for 60 days...
After this I intend to I get a better poll to try and expand on this one depending what answers I get. If nothing else to see what category above you've done the most of...
