Practical ideas for Revit, BIM and construction technology. Built from years of shared experience.
I had a good time at RTC back in 2016, it was awesome to catch up with the usual BIM crew and see what they are all up to. Hopefully I’ll get a chance to post in more detail about a few things I learn…
