After working hard for years and suffering through internships and hours of mind-numbing detailing tasks you deserve better than to spend time transcribing data from one column to another. And yet½if you are managing tag data for occupancy calculations, you are currently doing this, so stop right now.
For years Ideate BIMLink has taken on the task of pushing calculated values into shared parameters (something Revit will not do). Now, we are making it easier. See the video tutorial.
Area and Area Tags showing occupancy loads automated via Ideate BIMLink and an Excel macro template.[/caption] Existing Ideate BIMLink customers can request the sample content shown in the above video which includes Room and Area Tags, Shared Parameters, and the macro-enabled Excel template.
