Hi there I'd just like to know how much experience people on this forum have using CAD/BIM
Hey there, congrats on your first post.
I can't speak for everyone, but I've been in the A/E/C design field for over 25 years.
Started out hand drafting house plans and small projects back in the 80's then went back to school, got a degree, got into professional CAD/design in the mid 90's (Design-CAD then AutoCAD, some Micro(puke)station)..
Been working for major A/E firms since 1998. Got into Revit/BIM in 2009 or so.
Does that help?
I think you'll find there are people here with way more experience than I have, and some new to their fields..
A little over 17 years professionally here.
Last year's salary survey shows this distribution of experience:
