In this class, we will explore how to utilize Fabrication Parts in Revit software by taking a Revit project and going through the Design-to-Fabrication workflow. Once this has been reviewed and is complete, we will export a Fabrication file from Revit software into Fabrication ESTmep software. Once inside Fabrication ESTmep software, we will review the contents of the project and make any changes required. Then, utilizing the new Estimating Summary options, we will review pricing and labor and make any adjustments necessary. Once this is complete, we will review our options for sending the .MAJ to Fabrication CAMduct software and Fabrication CADmep software. This session features Revit MEP and Fabrication CADmep.

Are you interested in capitalizing on the power of .NET with your Fabrication software data? Awesome! Me too! This class will cover getting started with Fabrication software’s exciting new API. We will cover how to set up plug-ins for each of the various products—Fabrication CADmep software, Fabrication CAMduct software, and Fabrication ESTmep software. Learn how to load them in and execute the code. Also, discover some of what you can and cannot do, and ways to work in scripting and LISP to fill in the gaps where necessary. Knowledge of the Fabrication software products would be helpful, as well as prior knowledge of the Fabrication scripting language. This class will be a continuation of the Fabrication Advanced Scripting Class, but attending that class will not be strictly necessary for this one.

Come and learn about Autodesk® Fabrication software and how the individual systems integrate together to provide more seamless detailing, costing, and fabrication of MEP systems. This class builds on information about design line technology presented in the Go Beyond Design classes. This class will enable you to better understand how this technology, and the technology behind the Autodesk Fabrication products, can help contractors develop holistic knowledge around the portfolio to improve their business practices, increase productivity, and save money.

In this session, we will discuss converting generic Revit software parts into Fabrication Parts, or Design to Fabrication. We will cover setting up services and service templates in the Fabrication software products to get the best results inside of Revit software. This class will focus on the importance of Design Line setup to make the Design to Fabrication process most effective. This session features Fabrication CADmep and Fabrication ESTmep.

Fabrication Data Manager is the new cloud-based offering that enables database management in the cloud. Built on the Autodesk Platform Services platform (formerly Forge), the new UI facilitates intuitive visual management for collaboration and consumption in both Revit software and Fabrication authoring products.

Have you started seeing Revit files from architects or engineers at bid time? Do the projects that your CAD department is currently working on have access to the Revit files? Even if this is not the case, but you would like to take advantage of the Revit Design to Fabrication Parts, this is the class for you. In this class, we will review your options on how to use the Revit file design items into Fabrication Parts directly inside of Revit. Once we've converted the Revit design items, we'll learn how to export a .MAJ file out of Revit and open it with Fabrication ESTmep software. Once we've opened the file in Fabrication ESTmep, we'll look at options to review pricing and labor along with running reports and data exports.

Revit software's Fabrication tools have come a long way in a short time. This class will show the beginner how to get started. We'll look at the continuation of project workflow when converting the design model to a fabrication model. You'll learn how to convert design information to fabrication items, while discovering some of the pitfalls, and tricks to overcome them, along the way.

Hit some limits in scripting? Need to be able to do some more advanced calculations on the information in the Fabrication products? This class will help you with some more advanced scripting techniques including hybrid scripting that utilizes other frameworks like autolisp, .net, and the command prompt to do more with the data in the Fabrication products. Knowledge of the Fabrication products is helpful as well as prior knowledge of the fabrication scripting language. 

This will be a run through of the Fabrication software API, features, examples, uses, hints and tips, and new features for 2017.

This session will cover practical processes in Revit extension for Fabrication software. This session features Revit MEP and Fabrication CADmep.

This class will cover how to implement Fabrication ESTmep software. We will provide a recommended implementation strategy, along with best practices for a smooth implementation. We will examine the Product Information Editor, ID Codes, and how pricing information is linked to items in Fabrication ESTmep software. We will also look at the Harrison Pricing Service to update the existing price list. This session features Fabrication ESTmep. AIA Approved

This lab will teach fabrication scripting for Fabrication CADmep software, Fabrication ESTmep software, and Fabrication CAMduct software, using *.COD scripts. It assumes no prior knowledge of COD scripting and will walk you though how to create and test scripts to bulk modify properties of Fabrication content.

Fabrication Content if the single most important thing an MEP firm maintains to facilitate preconstruction. To help you manage that content, this session will teach you the basics of Fabrication (COD) scripting for Fabrication CADmep software, Fabrication CAMduct software, and Fabrication ESTmep software. You need no prior knowledge of scripting. We’ll show you how easy it is to create COD scripts, and how to use them to manage your own Fabrication ITM content.

Take a look under the hood and see how Fabrication ESTmep software can save you time and money by using one common database throughout the Autodesk Fabrication portfolio. Learn best practices from industry experts on how to implement Fabrication ESTmep. In this class, we'll go through a recommended implementation strategy, along with best practices for a smooth implementation. We'll examine the Product Information Editor, ID Codes, and how pricing information is linked to items within Fabrication ESTmep. We'll look at the Harrison Pricing Service, and show you how to update an existing price list using a CSV file.

We have scoured our support cases and made a list of the most common mistakes made while creating services. In this class, we will teach you how to avoid these mistakes and build great fabrication services. This session features Fabrication CADmep and Fabrication CAMduct.

You will leave this class knowing how to set up your own company's spool template, how to create a bill of materials for the spools, how to set up an autopopulated title block, and best methods on spooling with Fabrication software.

Frustrated with repeated model quality and coordination issues with piping models on your projects? Come join this class to learn how SSOE has adopted Revit Fabrication Parts on many of its industrial and manufacturing projects for initial design modeling. Discover how Revit Fabrication Parts can enable specification-based modeling—something that traditionally would have been accomplished with other products such as AutoCAD Plant 3D software. We’ll cover the benefits of using one common platform (Revit) to complete building design as well as when we should or should not use specification-based modeling. Finally, we’ll discuss unique challenges SSOE faced as an AE firm as we adopted Revit Fabrication Parts, and how we overcame those obstacles to produce higher-quality designs for our clients—saving them time, trouble, and money.
