What happens when thousands of engineers, designers, and innovators gather to imagine what’s next for building design? At Autodesk University, the conversations go beyond flashy tech, revealing how AI, automation, and smarter BIM practices, and more are quietly transforming the way we work.

Creating and keeping your single-line diagrams in sync with your Revit model is one of the biggest challenges in electrical design. A single panel rename can trigger a chain reaction of manual updates to schedules, feeders, voltage drop, and more. What is needed is a single-line that works inside Revit.

Wire sizing is one of the most critical aspects of electrical design. This post looks at the new wire sizing functionality in Revit 2026 versus how wire sizing works inside ElectroBIM to see which better handles real-world conditions.

If you have ever felt the strain of hiring and training, or if you are an early-career engineer wondering how to bridge the gap between school and practice, this conversation is one you do not want to miss.

Revit 2026 introduces a long-overdue transformation to wire sizing, giving electrical designers a more flexible, globally adaptable framework for defining conductors and cables. While this foundational shift is a major step forward, is it enough?

Design Master ElectroBIM 2.3.1 is now available.

Ever wonder how fast the industry shifts from one Revit version to the next? Usage data from ElectroBIM reveals the steady rhythm of adoption and decline across Revit releases. Understanding this lifecycle can help electrical engineers align their upgrade strategies, minimize coordination headaches, and keep projects running smoothly.
