    Description

    As projects deadlines become shorter our processes need to become better, faster, and more accurate. How fast is your workflow? Other than actual modeling, where do you spend much of your time? Can you run calculations faster? Can you coordinate with Electrical? We need to ask where in the process can we save time. How fast is fast enough to get our projects out the door, on time and under budget? Is your content up to the task? Are your other processes optimized? In this session we'll cover all the processes and content you should have in place to efficiently do a project from start to finish. This includes where calculations in families make sense and where Dynamo can help with heavy lifting. We'll start with linking in the Architect's model, adding Spaces and Zones, running HVAC load calculations, applying those calculations, sizing our air terminals using Dynamo, sizing terminal units, and coordinating the results with electrical. And we’ll show you how fast it can be… LIVE!
