There is No Future of BIM..... More than 95% Companies are still using Autocad. And BIM is so Poor in 2D as well as 3D drawings and very Boring. Check the market percentage of Designing , CAD and BIM softwares.
BIM is the future. It's a bit of an investment up front, in terms of the software, skill development and time, but it pays for itself over and over. A properly set up structural model saves so much time in the long run, and it's way more fun than just "drawing" a structure. You end up with a higher quality product with so much information at your fingertips. Thanks for a very informative video, looking forward to see more on this topic as it's a fast-moving technology and we need to adopt and adapt it efficiently as Structural Engineers.
Hi Theuns, agree the initial setting up the model can be costly, but after you have put the effort into setting up the model you can quickly update and assess change to the design.
Just found your channel - this is sweet! I get questions all the time asking who I can suggest for structural engineering and BIM, you just shot right up the top of my list. Keep up the great work mate. This video was also a great summary of BIM and engineering, I'm also including it in my 'further learning' for my University class I run on BIM. My background is architectural, so this video is super valuable to fill some of the gaps I'll no doubt leave for them.
Hi Aussie BIM Guru, Thanks for watching, enjoying and your support. your channel looks great too. If there are any topics that you think would be beneficial for me to cover let me know? I am always looking to add value to the community. What is the University course that your run? that sounds amazing. Also, thanks for adding it to your recommended 'further learning'.
@@BrendanHasty i currently run a capatone unit in BIM at USyd. Its a 5 day intensive divided across the semester, mixture of lab and lecture content. Whilst most of the students are architects I've added a lecture on engineering and analysis software (found some great examples in your video on structural top 5 software). I try to not make it too revit centric (even though we do use it here and there in lab sessions), and try to expose them to workflows and processes (iso standards, openBIM, CAFM etc). Quite bit to jam pick in! I still need to work my way through all your content, but I quite a lot of people asking about computation in structural engineering (analytical as well as automation based, e.g. karamba/dynamo) and also a lot of people are curious about modelling of reinforcement and analysis of slab deflection/loads. Might be some ideas in that mix of topics maybe? It's great how you tie back all your software examples to real practice, so tieing some of the 'why' to the 'how/what' with softwarr workflowd is super valuable for viewers also.
Brendan, thank you for sharing. Your videos are very informative and helpful. So please keep doing the great work that you are doing. Personally I am more interested in integration, optimization and and design efficiency while still designing an elegant structure. Any information on new trends in modeling and new technologies would be highly appreciated.
thank you. as an architect doing a masters in structural engineering, this is very interesting to me. could you talk more about rhino and grasshopper and how that is relevant to BIM?
Hi Forly, thanksyou for your support. I will start planning a video on this, with rhino inside integrating with revit, it is soo powerful now for parametric design. Thanks for the suggestion.
Autodesk is the dominant power they control adding features to bim software like rivet But it is clear that they will not let autocad_ the flagship software_with its _gigantic market share_ down That is why for structural engineers not to fully convert to rivet
Hey I would like to know more deeply, about programing ( machine learning, parametric or visual programing etc...) in structural engineering , for example Dynamo and Revit or even python with Revit, the use of grasshopper ( the visual programing tool ) with rhinozeros to create complex geometry to use in ETABS or SAP 2000 , machine learning in structural engineering , you know the kind of stuff that will rule the future in our field ( the latest developments ) thanks
Hi Cesar, thanks for the suggestions. I will be creating a future serries that will likely cover many of these topics also any other suggestions welcome
Thanks bro. Am Joshua from Nigeria 🇳🇬. Am structural engineer and data scientist student. Just getting to know about BIM. What’s the step by step in this Journey. Thanks 🙏
Hi Joshua, thanks for watching. BIM is just the extention of engineering documentation. I will start off by getting good at structural drawings. good luck on your journey
You have some amazing contents sir. Please don’t stop creating them, please let me know what other ways to support you. Other than just viewing this amazing videos.

Don't have any digital asserts or mech yet but I am working on them. Any support greatly appreciated
Hello, that video was very nice. I'd like to ask you Brendan if there is some kind of bim handbook in your country, and who is the main sponsor for methodology, public sector or private sector? Best regards
Hi Thanks for watching. There is loose standards and follow the international guides. There are organisations that cover this in Australia. But I am not to familiar with them other then engineers Australia.
Ing. Brendan, Good job with the video. I recently subscribed to your channel and i like your videos. Pertaining to BIM, which program will you recommend i start with for the BIM process. I am a young engineer under training with interest in structures.
Hi Desire, thanks for your support. It depends on which side you want to start to tackle BIM from design or documentation. Also, best to start with programs at your company. For design look into way to manipulate data so with excel with VBA or python script, for documents Revit with dynamo
Nearly forgot, I have never understood how programming could ne of use in Structural Engineering save for Revit. Could you in future shed some more light on that?
Hi Ashwanikumar, 3ds max is a graphical rendering tool? This is good for showing clients renders however isn't something we use for building modelling when designing structures. How do you use it?
@@BrendanHasty I used it for creating architectural structures for events. But since 2020 the governments have stopped or postponed all kinds of events and gatherings except elections.
Hi Jason, depend on how detailed you need to go. If only standard detail revit with purpose build components would work well,big needing more shop drawing level documentation Tekla works better.
@@BrendanHasty IFC export to- Tekla Structural Designer-export to Tekla Structures. Vs Revit bidirectional synchronisation with Advance Steel+Robot Structural Analysis(or Advance Design)? What are your thoughts Brendan?
Hi Aswin, BIM is the future however not sure how useful a masters will be. provided you know how to use Revit, real work experience is also worth a lot. It may be worth working in the industry and take the masters later.
I'm a structural student in Vietnam. Thank for your introduction. Can you please make more detail contents about how BIM can be applied into structural engineer like your example project sir.

How can I learn these design softwares
Hi Yaw, There are many RUclips video on other channels that can get you going with the basics. But i have always found it is best to try them out.
Love your videos. Learnt so much

Awesome content..
Hi Ataba, thanks for your comment it help support the channel so much.
revit is bim?
BIM is a modelling concept, doesnt mean any software. you can produce BIM models in revit.
