Group A - Future Problems of Revit/BIM

  • Many future problems include extensions of current issues. 
    • Resistance from professionals in the AEC field. Engineers are reluctant to implement BIM tools without proof of concept and execution (trust in self vs trust in data).
    • Fast-changing technology makes it difficult to keep up
    • Lack of incentive from companies to do formal training of new technology (financial burden, investment of time, resistance to change workflows)
    • Worries about accountability of design and execution by giving control over to automated processes and how that affects the public. Also, how does the use of automation inhibit innovation of design? When does making work simple become too simple?
    • Data waste and inefficient use of Revit as a database is a large factor in problems with BIM implementation
    • "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" mentality persists the AEC industry
