By its very nature, working in BIM IS worksharing. In Autodesk Revit, worksharing allows multiple users to work on the same Revit model simultaneously. That allows multi-disciplinary teams to deliver their BIM projects without conflict, fully collaborative, with real-time accuracy.
With the latest update of ArtisanRV for Revit, this synchronicity has been enhanced for planting, improving share speed to keep real-time collaboration aligned.
Worksharing planting data and models in Revit and ArtisanRV
Rather than every user editing their own file directly, Revit creates a central model that contains all the master project data. User’s local copies synchronise with the central model and any clashes and changes are highlighted and sent to all involved.
To manage BIM workflows including soft landscaping and planting, the ArtisanRV planting plugin for Revit holds the key – fully collaborative planting data, updated “on-the-fly”, ready for all teams to access key information.
Benefits of ArtisanRV for collaborative plant data
- Enables concurrent working: Multiple team members can develop different parts of the planting design simultaneously, improving productivity and removing time wasted waiting for other team member updates
- Improves coordination: One common source of truth means that design changes are instantly visible and shared. This helps identify clashes and coordination issues much earlier in the project lifecycle.
- Reduces errors and reworks: Synchronisation reduces the risk of overwrites and errors, leaving more time for design skill and development.
- Supports Common Data Environment (CDE) workflows: The collaborative power of worksharing supports those operating in other geographical locations and CDE platforms - GIS, Civils3D - wherever planting and landscape design has an impact.
- Enhances BIM information management: It is much more than sharing the 3D model. Worksharing enables the development of geometry, schedules, quantities and documentation from a unified dataset - and that means data consistency throughout.
EXAMPLE: Simultaneous worksharing in Revit with ArtisanRV:
- An architect moves an exterior wall.
- The structural engineer sees the change and assesses the impact on framing and footprint.
- The landscape architect sees the revision and adjusts the planting bed to accommodate the change.
