Model Review – Yet Again?!
By Cary Grant fromandJames SchwartzSlide2
Why yet another session on Model Review?
Why are we hearing about model review again at another User Group? Maybe since some have not heard about it and the topic values a bit of repetition, plus there are some new twists that have been added.Slide3
What was previously covered on Model Review?
2012 - Steltec and Design Data introduced an improved Design Data custom properties and demonstrated how they were used on an SNC Lavalin project.
2013 - Doug Fitzpatrick, Jim Stever and James Schwartz presented a new paradigm shift. Since then Jim has modified access to his network to allow Fitzpatrick engineering the ability to log in and review the model in real time.
Also, Maurice Roy and James Schwartz presented examples of using Custom Properties in a review capacity.Slide4
Where does that leave us for UG2014?
Topics covered in this presentation;
We will look at where the industry currently stands on Model Review.
Some numbers
Quick walkthrough on the out of the box review tools.
A presentation from Cary Grant from Cives Steel Company, citing his experience and perspective on Model Review.
New functionality that pertains to model Review in SDS/2 2015.Slide5
Where the industry currently stands.
Where the industry currently stands on Model Review;
AISC estimates that about 10% are already using a form of Model Review
(May 2012).
New numbers coming soon.
People surveyed predictions.
This is not a pipe dream, but the logical
direction of the industry
.Slide6
Where the industry currently stands.
In 2013, AISC promoted model review in 12 cities around the country.
The response was quite positive. As Luke Faulkner from the AISC mentioned,
“they found that people were more open to this than they anticipated”
.
Personally, I attended second round of the AISC model review seminar in Kansas City in August 2014.
Over 75 engineering firms, City planners and others in Attendance.
Model Review has found it’s way into contractual agreements.
One example.Slide7
Who is Cary Grant?
I am the Chief Draftsman of Cives
Steel Company New England Division. Prior to that I was Chief Draftsman to Maine Detailers, a division of
Cives
Steel Company. I have been detailing since 1991 and using SDS/2 since 1993.Slide8

Pit Falls and Benefits
Pit FallsEngineers are not familiar with the software.Engineers want the fabricator to pay for
software.
Engineers wants all fields to match what they think the field
means.
Benefits
Quicker turn around times on approvals.
Less questions on approval returns.
XML can be used in other software.Slide17
Model for Coordination

Lessons Learned

People need to be informed of what we can provide

Conclusion
From this presentation, we have seen the growing trend towards implementing models in the review process and how it benefits everyone. One mistake commonly made is that the model has completely replaced 2D images, and this is just not true. The shop still requires a 2D image; so does the field; and in cases where it is cumbersome to express data within the model. What is true is that the 3D model has become more prevalent and useful throughout the BIM process, as we have seen in Model Review, reducing the complete reliance upon the 2D images.Slide24
