If you set it up as one project, how do you organize the files for quick and easy retrieval? If it were me, I would gamble on the one-project approach, just to test the limits of the product. I would probably organize all the folders and files by building so that users do not have to drill down through so many drawings to find what they need.
Whatever you do, PLEASE keep us informed of your methods and recommendations!
