manojglobal Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Hello Everyone If you use SketchUp as BIM you can easily make 3D model out of 2D drawings which are in PDF or DWG formats for a better visualization. In your design you can apply both Revit-BIM and SketchUP for design study & design creation. The people using Sketch up and Revit need to be good communicators. Comments are most welcome...

Crazy Homeless Guy Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Just for clarification, SketchUp is not BIM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Just for clarification, SketchUp is not BIM. I love that his post speaks about good communication yet I can't understand what he's saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manojglobal Posted March 6, 2010 Author Share Posted March 6, 2010 Building Information Modeling amalgamation was designed for Google SketchUp because of the accessibility and popularity of a Google tool Plug-ins for other BIM tools such as Revit.

Jason Matthews Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 I hate to burst your bubble there, Manoj but BIM was NOT developed for Sketchup. BIM has been around longer than Sketchup has. It wasn't until the 2009 version of Revit (I believe) that sketchup files were able to be imported into Revit. Furthermore, as CHG says, Sketchup is not BIM. That being said, you can import the Sketchup files into Revit and assign families to the faces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3dway Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Was this a case of the online free translator software? Was this someone asking, "how can is better use sketchup with Revit so I can have the ease of modelling AND the benefits of BIM?" ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Matthews Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 If that was the question then all of us got it wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
