Room data sheets are organized overviews that provide the necessary information for specific types of rooms. They are usually created during the meeting phase (or architectural programming in US) of the design process and aid in defining the client’s needs for each type of space. They can be used to formulate specification that helps contractors and designers be aware of what is expected from each space and how they can ensure that any proposed solution meets the needs of the client.
Architects as well as other members of design teams, including engineers and interior designers make rooms data sheets. They are still a work-in-progress and could remain an “living document” until the http://www.searchstreams.info/room-data-sheets-example-for-management/ client has ratified the final architectural design. The data in room sheets may then be transferred to the Revit model via a process known as backfilling. Using this method of verification will make sure that the data for the room accurately reflects the requirements in the final document and also identify any discrepancies between the two.
The Room Data Sheets component in BriefBuilder allows you to create room data sheets and then use them to be synced with the Revit model. It comes with a standard templates set and pre-programmed select lists for the structural and electrical disciplines and HVAC and plumbing. It also allows for the use of thumbnail size drawings and graphics for each discipline.
The component is simple to use and does not require any special configuration. It can load settings previously saved, which decreases the time needed to set up. It allows properties such as the size, organization of the browser, and naming for each view to be set.
