I have been asked to research what some of the industry is doing as far as “proving the math” in BIM packages. REVIT would not be excluded from scrutiny in this case. Point being, how are others showing that the calculations that are processed, are calculated correctly and what methods are being used? How do we show proof of that using BIM? Obviously it would be nice if we just submitted schedules and that would be adequate, however, Design Analysis is submitted at different times of the project duration and calculations are always included. The verbage in the help and text documents in REVIT is not a viable option. Any ideas on this subject matter?
Best regards,
Dave
