A drawing set never stays still. This eLearning course teaches you to record changes, manage revisions and transmit your set from Archicad with a revision record that writes itself. Self-paced, built by Nordic BIM Group specialists. Assumes you know the Archicad basics.
Revisions in Archicad: keep every change, revision and transmittal set under control
Who it's for
One course for people who already work in Archicad and transmit drawings that change. It assumes you have the basics, so if you are brand new to Archicad, start with Archicad Fundamentals. Pick the situation that sounds like you.
You fill in revision fields and title blocks by hand
Every new transmittal set means typing revision IDs, dates and descriptions into title blocks, then checking nothing was missed. You learn to set up revision fields that fill themselves in on every affected layout.
Your drawing register lives in a spreadsheet
You keep a drawing register beside the project and update it by hand whenever a drawing changes. You learn to generate drawing and revision lists straight from the project instead.
Nobody is sure which drawing is current
A contractor calls about a plan you transmitted two weeks ago. You learn to track what changed, when and in which transmittal set,, so every question about drawing status has one answer.
Every project revises its own way
One project clouds its changes, the next writes notes in a margin. Enrol the group, or talk to an advisor about getting the whole office transmitting and revising the same way.
What you'll learn
By the end you can run the full revision management workflow in Archicad and trust the record it leaves. Here is the scope.
Everything starts with a clean first transmittal set. You learn to create it in Archicad, decide which layouts it covers, and lay the foundation the whole revision history builds on. From then on, the project keeps the record while you keep designing.
Designs move, and Archicad can remember every step. You learn to record changes with their own IDs and markers, see which layouts each change touches, and keep the overview when many changes land at once.
A change becomes a revision the moment you transmit again. You learn how layouts pick up their revision status, how the revision history grows with each transmittal set and how to close one out knowing every revised layout is accounted for.
Stop typing revision data into title blocks. You learn to set up revision fields on your master layouts, so the right revision data appears on each drawing, correct on every transmittal set. The Nordic BIM Group national templates ship with these fields prepared, so you can apply this on the title block you already use.
The drawing list and the revision history are part of the project, not a separate document. You learn to generate lists that update with every transmittal set, and decide what to include for the people receiving the set. Producing the drawing set itself is its own course: see Efficient Drawing Production.
