As we all know buildings are rarely constructed 100% exactly the way they are drawn. During the construction process changes have to be made in the field to accomodate unforseen conditions, changes that the owner may wish to make, etc.
So let's say I have produced a full CD set for a school in Revit and it is under construction. Now along the way the client needs some changes like casework moved around, or maybe the ceiling needs to be revised, etc.
So when that happens, what is the best way of keeping track of POTENTIAL changes, things that may or may not happen while we wait on a price back from the contractor?
Right now, what I do is go back to the project file, make the changes, and then create new views that show those changes that will fit on an 8.5x11 version of our titleblock and can be faxed to the contractor. But what if those changes are not approved by the owner, or just end up not happening for whatever reason. Then what should I do?
I'm just trying to get an idea of how everyone keeps their Revit project files up to date and current with what is happening in the field, and what may or may not happen in the near future as construction progresses. Thoughts?
