With the environmentalists on the rise again, it’s more important than ever for us architects to try to save as many resources as possible. We all know how much of a paper hog an average size architecture firm is, much less the large ones! Here is a process that I push in all offices that I [...] Gonna finish up the week with a very easy tip, yet very powerful for those complicated designs that use all those mathematical formulas and what not… Hopefully, by this point, you know that you can simply enter a length to determine a wall or line length, or really anywhere you can input a dimension. Simply type 100′ [...] What’s this? I’m keeping my word? Two tips in one week?! Well, don’t let it fool you. I cheated.

I speak of the one and only varying thickness in a layer of an assembly. Floors or roofs, this method can be used with [...] So you just finished placing the existing structure of building you are remodeling into revit and start working on the floors… only to ask the question, “Should I really have made this a single floor type?” Well, today’s tip is less of a How-to and more of a How Carl Does It. Typically, you would simply [...] Oh, hello there! Thought I had completely forgotten about you, didn’t you? Well, no, not completely. I had to deal with some personal issues, namely the beginning of my family! You can all blame it on my new son when he’s old enough to understand what you’re all upset about.
