Debunking BIM Myths for Precast Fabricators

This free non-CEU sponsored webinar is available to PCI members only.

Think you need Revit to share models with engineers and architects? Think again. in this webinar, we’ll be debunking some of the biggest myths surrounding BIM for precast detailing and fabrication. Discover why generic design tools were never intended for precast detailing, how BIM is really used for collaboration between stakeholders, and how to use purpose-built precast software to get preliminary design models up to shop standards with automated reinforcement, piece ticketing, and drawing creation—no matter what solution your partners are using.

Learning Objectives:

  • Recognize the limitations of generic design tools like Revit for precast detailing
  • Identify efficient workflows for transforming preliminary architectural models into fully detailed, fabrication-ready precast models.
  • Explore best practices for open BIM collaboration and using reference models to avoid redundant work, improve accuracy, and save time in precast projects.
