Title: Modeling, Not Drafting, a Post-Tensioned Structure
Instructors: Joy Beers with Tomas Amor
Course Description: A design and documentation process based in modeling can save time and add down-stream benefits to the project team and client. This philosophy was applied to a recent post-tensioned concrete structure design. To accomplish the goal, two Revit® families were created to accurately model the post-tension reinforcement system. This class will show how the families were built and how they were used to model the post-tension system for an entire structure. The final structure, including mild reinforcement, will be presented, showing how reinforcement conflicts were resolved, how visualization aided the design, and how visualization aided in coordination with other disciplines. Finally, concepts on how this model may aid the shop drawing and construction phase will be presented.
