An improved version of SpecLink-E is released to link construction specifications directly to BIM

Now it is possible to synchronize specifications with BIM by linking construction specifications directly to BIM.

Atlanta based Building Systems Design Inc (BSD), first time introduced an improved BSD LinkMan-E software product that can be applied to coordinate specifications through a model generated in Revit.

SpecLink-E is an automated specification writing product that illustrates correlations and inconsistencies amid information in Revit and the subsequent specifications text in SpecLink-E through two new completely reconstructed dashboards.

A project manager can review and coordinate with the help of an interoperability tool that provides data from Revit and SpecLink BSD LinkMan-E. The two new dashboard views that match the data from the two applications can be disrupted. Thus, they easily demonstrate divergencies, and any omitted information in the specifications are automatically turned on in SpecLink from inside the LinkMan program.

As BSD has pre-linked many Revit components to SpecLink-E, the users normally generate their own Revit libraries of objects ranging from wall and door types, which necessitate the formation of links inside LinkMan-E to link them to the specifications. Now, Revit users will be able to relate any of BSD’s 1,700 pre-linked materials to their customized building elements inside the Revit software, devoid of opening the LinkMan program at all. With the most updated edition of LinkMan-E set up, any Revit objects containing these materials utilized will become visible in LinkMan-E already connected to SpecLink-E.

Newforma® going to organize a free weekly PIM webinar series focusing on BIM & Revit

Industry leading project information management (PIM) software company Newforma®, is going to organise a free weekly PIM webinar series, "Newforma WoW: Webinars on Wednesdays, commencing from March 23 at 12:00 noon Eastern Daylight Time (-4 GMT).

This webinar will focus on how the Newforma PIM solution facilitates the PIM challenges for AEC industries.

For registration purpose, please visit http://tinyurl.com/NewformaWoW-Registration.

The webinar will start on March 23, 2011 and continue till May 4, 2011. The details are given below.

March 23 - "Step One to digital photo management: the Project Images activity center" – In this webinar the discussion will focus on “the utilization of Newforma Project Images activity center to deal with the ever-expanding volume of digital site photos and project images alongwith tracing images in spite of their location in project folders.

March 30 - "Managing drawing revisions: the Newforma Document Control activity center" – In this webinar the attendees will come to know the application of the Newforma Document Control activity center to findout and control the flow of drawing and related document revisions. Besides, the attendees will also know how the design and construction quality is improved, risk and error-prone administrative tasks are eliminated with standardization revision management of record documents.

April 6 - "Managing the 'I' in BIM: the Newforma Add-in for Revit and space management" - This webinar will demonstrate how the Newforma Add-in for Autodesk Revit develops the investment value in Building Information Modeling with the inclusion of PIM capabilities into the Autodesk Revit suite. Besides the attendees will also know the process for connecting room and space planning spreadsheets with live Revit models enabling to perform asynchronously on a coordinated project room and space program; and swiftly edit room and space parameters from outside the design application.

April 13 - "Managing the 'I' in BIM: the Newforma Add-in for Revit and building element data management" – In this webinar the attendees will familiar with the alternative way to broaden the investment value of BIM through attaching building components like doors, curtain walls, equipment, HVAC or structural components across multiple models to the Building Information Management activity center in Newforma Project Center. Here the properties of building element can be added, customized, linked with concerned PIM processes and coordinated back to their relevant models.

April 20 - "Managing the 'I' in BIM: the Newforma Add-in for Revit and coordination of design changes" – This webinar will focus on how PIM processes for managing action items, markups, RFIs and punch lists being linked to Revit models and elements for executing BIM based projects more efficiently and in timely manner.

May 4 - "From discussion to action items: the Meeting Minutes activity center" – The attendees will come to know how the new Meeting Minutes activity center harmonizes with Microsoft Office Outlook to add value to meetings by tracking meeting commitments like action items, RFIs and other open project issues until resolution without disrupting current meeting scheduling practices.

May 11 - "PIM on the go: Access project data from smartphones, tablets and more" - This webinar will focus on how smartphones, iPads, Android tablets and laptops are being used by project team members to get connected with project information and processes at the same time as working remotely to get rid of unnecessary delays.
