• Online Training Recordings
• Documentation and Knowledge Base Updates

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 prefer audio 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.

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.

Check out the full training video playlist and see what’s possible.

You might just recognize a problem you’ve been trying to solve and find a better way forward.
