For this month's Electrical Building Design Show, we revisit one of our past videos for a topic that is particularly meaningful to us. In "BIM for Fire Alarm Design", David Robison explores the lack of fire alarm design in BIM, and highlights solutions for accomplishing this in software like Revit.
As of this publication, all episodes are available to view on the Electrical Building Design Show Playlist. If there are any you have missed, please go back through the playlist and catch whatever you would like to watch.
The next episode will premiere on Monday, January 5th, so be sure to visit the Design Master YouTube channel and subscribe for notifications of new releases.
For those who preferaudio podcasts instead, there is a version of the show in that format also. It is carried on all the major podcast channels (Spotify, Apple, Google, Amazon, etc.), and can be found by searching for the show by name.
Online Training Recordings
Did you know that we have an extensive YouTube playlist of training videos focused on how to use and get the most out of ElectroBIM for Revit?
Video topics include:
Using ElectroBIM’s tools effectively
Solving everyday electrical design headaches in Revit
Exploring practical workflows that anyone can learn from
These videos aren’t locked behind a paywall. If you’re an electrical designer already using ElectroBIM and are looking to increase your knowledge or available features, or simply curious about what’s possible in Revit with ElectroBIM, these sessions will give you clarity and new ideas.
ElectroBIM uses several calculation bases and NEC references. This article briefly explains each basis and reference used in the software and provides links to additional resources, providing a single source to evaluate ElectroBIM's bases, or clarify its calculations for reviewers.
