ARCHITECTURE  OF J. F. BAUTISTA

"BIM will quickly become the foundation of building design, visualization studies, contract documents, analysis, simulation and facilities management. Autodesk Revit® market penetration into architectural firms is occurring three times faster than the market penetration of 2D CAD in the nineteen eighties -- in the next few years a majority of all projects will be modeled in Revit." from: JBIM magazinne article.

High quality, need-specific, and re-usable SmartBIM Objects will be an enabling factor for successful BIM-based projects and use of BIM downstream of design.

For anyone involved in the design and construction industry, it's unlikely a day goes by without at least hearing a mention of Building Information Modeling (BIM). This project delivery tool has promised increased team collaboration, improved schedules, cost reliability, and a reduction in field rework. However, because it's still a relatively new methodology, many owners and even some professional services providers neither understand how it works nor comprehend the benefits of incorporating BIM into the project delivery process. In fact, while everyone is talking about it, those who are truly proficient in it are scarce in all disciplines.

As a heavy user of BIM Revit  Architecture and BIM Bentley Architecture I just have a thought: Revit Architecture and Bentley Architecture shall merge together and may be called "BIM the RABBIT" (Revit Architecture Building Bentley Interface Technology).

Currently I'm a user and instructor of: Autodesk BIM Revit Architecture 2009, Bentley BIM Architecture and Adobe Photoshop CS3.
