As the building industry as a whole continues to move to BIM, structural engineering professionals continue to look for ways to extend design information to fabrication. At Autodesk University (AU) this year held from November 29 – December 1st, third party developers who are strategic industry and Autodesk Developer Network (ADN) partners of Autodesk, will offer classes focused on design to fabrication for steel and precast concrete with Revit Structure based workflows. Be sure to register for one of the classes below:
Autodesk® Revit® Structure Linked to Bocad™ Steel Detailing Design: A Path to Industrial Partnership
Precast Concrete Industry Extensions for Autodesk® Revit® Structure 2012
Using Revit Structure for Steel Connection Design and Driving BIM Models to Fabrication
This is what I have been waiting for a long time!

These classes sound really informative. I am personally a fan of BIM. I think it makes structural steel fabrication much easier and more effective. It takes time to learn it, but it can be done. I also really like the movement towards looking for ways to further tie together design and fabrication. I mean, they are two parts of the same process, when you look at it as a whole.
