How can
“BIM 360” and “Forge Viewer” be integrated?

What is BIM 360?

BIM 360 is a cloud-based construction
management software by Autodesk, which allows users to store and manage project
information and collaborate with team members. 

About Forge viewer

The Forge Viewer is a web-based 3Ds max
plugin development by Autodesk as part of its Forge platform. It allows
users to display, share, and collaborate on 3D models and data from various
file formats, such as Revit, AutoCAD, and Navisworks, using a web browser or a
mobile device.

The viewer is used by professionals in
a range of industries, including architecture, engineering, and construction,
manufacturing, and more.

The
Forge Viewer includes a wide range of features, including:

Model Viewing:
The viewer allows users to view 3D models in a web browser, and they can zoom,
pan, and rotate the model to see it from different angles.

Markups: Users
can add annotations, measurements, and other visual aids to the 3D model using
markup tools, making it easier to communicate design intent or changes.

Sectioning: The
viewer enables users to cut sections through the model, giving them a closer
look at the inner workings of the structure.

Collaboration:
The viewer includes collaboration tools that allow multiple users to work on
the same model at the same time, or share the model with others for review. 

Implementation of BIM 360 Forge Viewer:

BIM 360 and the Forge Viewer are often
used together in construction projects.

BIM
360 Forge Viewer integration allows users to view and interact with BIM 360
project data in a 3D environment. For example, a user could view a 3D model of
a building in the Forge Viewer and access BIM 360 project data such as
documents, issues, and RFIs (Requests for Information) directly from the
viewer.

This integration can provide a more
efficient and streamlined workflow for construction teams, as it allows users
to access all relevant project information in one place, and enables real-time
collaboration and issue resolution.
