In August's podcast, we put an AI assistant to work on a real Revit project using FireBIM and see how far it can get with surprisingly little guidance. Along the way, it encounters real-world modeling challenges, explains its decisions, and shows what's possible today with AI-assisted engineering.This is not about replacing the engineer. It's about discovering what work AI can take off your plate, and where your expertise still matters most.Listen to hear how AI is changing the future of fire alarm design.The next episode will be released on September 21st.----------Register for a free webinar on fire alarm design in Revit. https://www.designmaster.biz/fire-alarm/webinarTo download a free trial version of FireBIM, visit: https://www.designmaster.biz/fire-alarm

Twice. From hand drafting to CAD. From CAD to BIM. The same arguments, the same skeptics, the same outcome.So what does that tell us about where AI is headed for architects and engineers? Listen to find out why early criticism isn't the same as being right, and why this industry has lost this bet before.The next episode will be released on June 15th.#AEC #ArchitectureAndEngineering #AIinConstruction #BIM #Revit #ConstructionTechnology #AECInnovation #StructuralEngineering
In our latest Electrical Building Design Show podcast episode, we look at the recent release of Revit 2027. If you're an electrical engineer, you'll want to hear this before you get too excited, though.Everyone's talking about the new AI features, and yes, they're interesting. But when you dig into what's actually in this release for electrical design specifically, the list is... short. Very short.No buzzwords, no overpromising, just an honest discussion about what’s working, what isn’t, and where things are headed.We go through the full release notes so you don't have to, and compare the information to what appeared in last year's release. Listen to find out if Revit 2027 is worth your attention.The next episode will be released on May 4th.------------Register for a free webinar on best practices for creating single-line diagrams in Revit. https://www.designmaster.biz/webinar/register-pod.htmlTo download a free trial version of ElectroBIM, visit: https://www.designmaster.biz/revit/free-trial.html#Revit2027 #ElectricalEngineering #MEPEngineering #BIM #Revit #ElectricalDesign #RevitElectrical #BuildingInformationModeling #EngineeringTechnology #AutodeskRevit
