Requirements
A Computer to accomplish the recommended exercises
Need to install a trial of Autodesk Revit 2018 , Navisworks Manage 2018 ,Dynamo 1.3 and 3d Max 2018 on the Computer
Need to know how to create basic models for Construction
Need to know how to create time schedules for execution.
Description
This course it's designed for teaching you how to create construction simulations, using several tools from the Autodesk Suite.

BIM it's on a deep expansion for the AEC (Architecture, Engineering and Construction) Industry so each time more and more projects are developed over this methodology changing the quality standards for construction and design.

In this case Construction Simulations are the tool we are to explore because they can communicate directly and graphically with everybody

First set of Simulations go working with a normal typical Workflow between Revit and Navisworks, linking tasks with selection sets or by parameters, that can lead to a general decision taking.

Second Set uses Dynamo as an engine for time scheduling development, to get all activities and objects synchronized and then visualize them on Navisworks or on 3d Max.

And Third Set uses 3d Max as a tool for coding animations with their own engine synchronized with the Revit Model and the Dynamo Outputs to create stunning results.

This course goes from scratch with construction simulations but it requaries that students know how to model, and have basic skills with dynamo, so they can develop further tools to their own interest.

The course has one single exercise to be follow up and send it by each single type of simulation.

The materials include the scripts saw on the course plus the Custom Nodes created specifically for it.

Are you tired of taking courses that go to fast with a lot of content? Don't worry go at your own pace, jump between sections for certain topics, the access is for lifetime.

Also, we have a direct response for any topic listed, so we can improve the content.

Be the first to know of future courses regarding BIM, take advantage of all the opportunities that may appear and use it to improve your work performance and get better job positions.
