Christmas in April!!! Autodesk Forma and their new Embodied Carbon Analysis will help project teams assess the potential carbon impacts of their buildings for the start. if you are not using Forma yet, see what you have been missing out on! #Autodesk #FormaForward #FutureBIM #Symetri.

BIG NEWS!! Forma's new Embodied Carbon Analysis capability is now available in Tech Preview. 🤩   In collaboration with EHDD, we've introduced an analysis tool that empowers you to better understand the carbon implications of your design choices, right from the initial phases of planning. It equips architects like you with the ability to assess the sustainability of material choices and building forms swiftly, allowing for informed, carbon-conscious designs from day one.    We are so excited to finally share this with you! 😊🚀 Head to our blog to learn more: https://lnkd.in/gv-dX46n   This new analysis is also part of the recently announced Total Carbon Analysis solution, featuring not only Forma but also Revit and Autodesk Insight. More on this coming soon. 🤫 👀 #autodeskforma #autodesk #carbonanalysis #embodiedcarbon #aec #architects   

💭 Designing with sustainability in mind requires comprehensive data.   "What if there was a way to make beautiful, affordable homes quickly, efficiently, and sustainably? It turns out that there is a way, and it’s happening in West Oakland" Today we’re announcing Total Carbon Analysis for Architects for the AEC Collection, which offers new capabilities for carbon analysis that help track the carbon footprint of a building from planning through detailed design. Our technology at Autodesk enabled the design team to see real-time cost and embodied carbon numbers for every design option. Have a look at the news below for more information about this project 🔔 (here is more information about Project Phoenix modular housing https://lnkd.in/d4zvJMwW Autodesk

EHDD is collaborating with Autodesk Forma to make embodied carbon assessments more accessible to designers 🤝 Rather than awaiting expert reports or making costly alterations in the later stages, Forma’s new Embodied Carbon Analysis empowers architects and planners to assess carbon impacts from day one. With this AI-powered analysis, based on EHDD’s C.Scale API, they can easily evaluate their design concepts and iterate toward the reduction of emissions. “The biggest climate gains are made up front in the project development process, when data is scarce, but the solution set is vast,” says Brad Jacobson, FAIA, a principal at EHDD. “Integrating the predictive insights of C.Scale early into the BIM workflow puts carbon intelligence into the fingertips of every designer.” Read the full blog post ⤵  https://lnkd.in/gv-dX46n

With Building Information Modeling (BIM), the architecture firm Y.A. studio was able to easily coordinate between team members and community stakeholders to create an affordable housing project in San Francisco. High levels of coordination was crucial for a project with tight timelines and budget. Even better, #BIM enabled the team to communicate their design ideas with realistic visualizations, and gain support and buy-in early on from most of the community, “no one's going to be surprised when the building opens up because we've been able to give them a sense of what it's going to look like from day one.” And by using Autodesk #Revit for design, the team was able to use a variety of plugins to explore design ideas that helped their client understand different options like landscaping in the rear yard, allowing for easier decision making. With sustainability in mind, the team is also pursuing a Platinum GreenPoint rating, meaning the building will be 100% electric. In fact, the building will be running on 100% renewable energy by contracting with CleanPowerSF. Learn more at https://autode.sk/4cO2GdI. #AEC #Sustainable #Software

Energy management software platforms are fantastic tools for monitoring, analysing and optimising a buildings energy usage and contributing to a lower carbon future. Combine this with technology tools that allow the AEC industry to design with energy efficiency in mind, you have something even more powerful. It's super exciting to see that the latest updates from Autodesk software will allow Architects to understand and test the carbon impact of their design decisions at the beginning of a project life cycle, ensuring a more sustainable building before it becomes bricks and mortar. What else do you believe is needed to make the built environment truly smart and sustainable? 🌿 #smartbuildings #sustainability #energyefficiency

At Autodesk, we’ve been incorporating operations workflows into our software and services to help you better understand the real-world performance of your designs, enabling more efficient and sustainable asset management. Over the years, Autodesk has been central to delivering the solutions that enable the AEC industry's digital transformation. Our expansion into operations is a natural extension of that work. We’ve been broadening our operations solutions and capabilities with Autodesk Tandem, #AutoCAD, Autodesk #Revit, and Autodesk Construction Cloud–which support operational processes like space planning or maintenance. And our solutions for the water industry–Info360 Insight and Info360 Asset–help make the operations of water assets more effective. Bringing in partners further fuels our move to AECO. Our focus across the broader AECO ecosystem includes alliances with Eptura and Esri. Our focus on the operations phase, means you can better understand the real-world performance of your designs, leading to improved design strategies and data exchange, and more efficient cost management practices.

Here is another inspiring case study by REDCON Construction Co. S.A.E on how to successfully #digitize the entire construction process from their landmark project #Golden_Gate in New Cairo, by Redcon for Offices and Commercial Centers. “Before we used the forms feature in Autodesk Build, collecting good quality data was difficult. With Autodesk Construction Cloud, everything is recorded and documented, and it’s easy to download data for analysis, making us a data-driven company,” Said Mohamed ElSarha, R&D Manager at @Redcon Construciton “Another sustainability benefit from Autodesk Construction Cloud is that it is enabling a project we’re working on to control on-site waste management,” Said Ahmed Elnafa - BIM Manager at Polar Management, ROCC The sponsorship and support of Redcon's management and Eng. AHMED ASSEM - MBA, PMP, was crucial in realizing the company's vision for #sustainability and #digitaltransformation. The case study contains full details, ROI, challenges, and success journey. https://lnkd.in/eHEQvgEZ #autodeskconstructioncloud #automation #construction #BIM
