Autodesk Vault Migration Best Practices

May 18, 2022

| No Comments

| Vault, Vault

Autodesk Vault Migration Best Practices

A Vault migration occurs where the Vault environment is being migrated from one release to a later release (e.g. 2022 to 2023).

Migrations need to be planned out and not left too long between releases and from the current release to avoid issues with data and config migrations which ultimately leads an increase in the time and cost to migrate Vault to the designated release.

Planning the Migration

If Vault migrations are left too long between releases or is migrated to a release that is more than 3 releases from the current, issues can arise in a migration where there are errors in configurations and database relationships due to:

Double and triple migrations
Autodesk integrating too many changes between releases and the old configuration not being supported in the new release.
Users may miss issues during testing and handover phase, etc.
Release is end of life and no longer support from Autodesk
Forced to do a double migration
Cyclical problem of too many changes between releases (being too far apart) and errors, can’t go forward until issues are resolved.

What is a Double Migration?

Vault can only be migrated within 3 releases. A Vault environment on 2020 can only be migrated to 2022. If the current release in this scenario is 2023, then another migration is required to go from 2022 to 2023.

A triple migration is basically when the Vault release is far back from the desired release. In one example, Design Consulting migrated Vault from 2015 to 2017, 2017 to 2019 and then 2019 to 2021.

The time taken and steps involved to migrate are virtually replicated, resulting in a duplication in costs every time a migration is required, so planning your Vault migration is important to get the best value for money when migrating and also have users take advantage of the additional productivity features in the new releases of Vault and CAD software.

On one hand IT may want to delay the inevitable for as long as possible to reduce their workload on a 1, 2 or 3 year interval, however, the user base can lose out on new features that makes the business more productive and if there are issues with the migration due to unforseen errors in data and configuration, any time savings in IT may be minimal compared to these aforementioned factors.

Vault Migration Best Practices

While things get busy and there may be budgetary constraints, however, if possible, the best practice for Vault to optimise the migrations are:

To ensure backups are scheduled, not failing and up to date
Vault Server and CAD System Requirements are being met
Try migrating within 3 releases to avoid a double migration (2019 to 2021, 2021 to 2022 double migration costs the same as 2019 to 2021, 2021 to 2023)
Stay 1 release behind the latest or wait for the major service pack release to avoid any unforeseen issues.
Test environment – Have a compatible server, job processor (if required), CAD-level workstation, etc. as a test environment for the migration that users can connect to, before rolling it out the migrated Vault release into production.
For larger environments of 50x users or more, having in place a more formal ITIL framework or similar.

What's New in IMAGINiT Clarity 2022 - AutoCAD, Revit and BIM Automation, Analytics and Access

This years release of IMAGINiT Clarity is a an amazing release to say the least. Packed full of support for new applications, new features and enhancements, IMAGINiT have turned IMAGINiT Clarity into the ultimate automation, analytics and access system for AutoCAD, Revit and BIM projects.

What is Clarity

For those who are just learning what Clarity is for the first time, it’s a server based application that automates tasks, provides analytics (metrics, business intelligence, etc.) and access for CAD and Non-CAD users to project data, deliverables and tasks.

AutoCAD Support

Clarity now supports AutoCAD Tasks to automate and gain insights into AutoCAD projects, for environments with mixed CAD packages. Clarity works with all AutoCAD based applications for AEC projects like Civil 3D, Plant 3D, Map 3D, AutoCAD Electrical, etc.

Clarity runs the following AutoCAD tasks:

Opt-in to tracking DWG/DST files
PDF
eTransmit
Navisworks
Task Targeting
SRC (Headless LISP routines, scripts)
BIM 360 / File-based project types

Allowing you to batch process tasks usng the IMAGINiT Clarity system.

Task Dashboard: Pivot Tables

Pivot tables are now supported within the web portal, to be used for administrators to answer questions like:

What kind of tasks failed last night?
What kind of tasks are running?
Which Task Servers are most busy?
Which offices use IMAGINiT Clarity the most?
What kind of issues are we seeing most often?

PyRevit Scripting

Macros and scripts using Python in Revit are supported by IMAGINiT Clarity 2022, whcih too many is like something in between Dynamo scripting and .NET/Revit API and gives the rapid development capability and full access to the Revit API.

This new addition allows users to run PyRevit scripts or in batch mode on demand or on schedule with your other IMAGINiT Clarity tasks.

Glue Download

Based on the legacy product, Autodesk BIM 360 Glue, IMAGINiT has added the ability to download projects from Glue.

Procore Synch

IMAGINiT Clarity supports the ability to push files to Procore in previous releases and in 2022, Clarity supports the ability to Sync to Procore.

From / To Synchronisation for Non-CAD files

Instead of solely moving, copying and synching Revit and AutoCAD files or tasks, IMAGINiT Clarity can do this on any file that is stored somewhere else, on demand or on schedule sych as SharePoint, Microsoft Teams, Google Drive, etc.

Native Revit PDF Export

Autodesk has included native PDF export and IMAGINiT Clarity has fully integrated this feature instead of relying on PDF drivers, and IMAGINiT have added this option inside the PDF task options.

BIM 360 and Construction Cloud Enhancements

IMAGINiT Clarity has added the following support for Autodesk BIM 360 and Autodesk Unified Platform Construction Cloud:

BIM Collaborate Pro
BIM 360 Upload Post Task: Same File

Autodesk Construction Cloud Vs BIM 360

June 4, 2021

| No Comments

| Construction, Data Management for Architecture and Construction

Autodesk Construction Cloud Vs BIM 360

With the new Autodesk Construction Cloud platform and similarities to BIM 360 and new features, we thought we would write this blog to go through the comparison between the two platforms.

Construction Cloud

Autodesk’s Construction Cloud (ACC) platform integrates newly acquired technologies, PlanGrid, Assemble, Pype and Building Connected to bring even deeper end to end integration within their construction management portfolio.

BIM 360 Design and Design Authoring Tools

With already having industry leading BIM and CAD design authoring tools such as AutoCAD with specialised toolsets, Civil 3D, Plant 3D, Navisworks and Revit, Autodesk had integrated these tools with BIM 360 Design (or Docs) in their construction management platform to better collaborate with teams and external parties within the cloud by being able to publish files to BIM 360 in real-time.

With Xref management for AutoCAD and tight integration with Civil 3D and Plant 3D, BIM 360 Docs provided intelligent document control and reference management.

No posts found!

BIM 360 Document Control, Coordination, Operations and Facilities Management

Docs was like the backbone offering tools for document control and design review and they had Autodesk Coordinate (aka Glue) for coordination, Build for field operations, commissioning or project closeout and Ops for facilities management. There was a couple other apps for project management and costing, however, in the Construction Cloud platform, these tools are much more comprehensive.

BIM 360 Docs Vs Autodesk Docs

The first product to compare is Autodesk Docs, which is only available in the Autodesk Architecture Engineering and Construction Collection.

This cloud application is very similar in feature and functionality to Docs with ISO 19650 compliant document control, RFI’s, submittals, issues, processes, design review, insight tools, etc.

BIM 360 Design Vs BIM Collaborate Pro

BIM 360 Coordinate Vs BIM Collaborate

Design has been replaced with Collaborate Pro, offering real-time Revit collaboration and both products have ‘Docs’ included.

Both products have ‘Docs’ included and offer model coordination tools for clash detection

ACC

Where Autodesk Construction Cloud comes into it’s own is in:

Quantification / Takeoff
Bid Management
Cost Management
Building Connected
Integration to other systems

Quantity Takeoff

ACC Takeoff is a 2D/3D quantity take off tool for estimators allowing you to use the connected model in Construction Cloud to integrate 2D and 3D Quantities and manage related documents in the cloud.

Bid Management

ACC offers centralised bid management on a single platform and ties into the Takeoff tools for estimators. Using the BuildingConnected network, owners, builders and sub-contractors can connect and can manage bid invites and use risk adjusted-bidding tools.

Cost Management

ACC configurable cost management module centralises all cost information, streamlines communications by managing all cost activities and forecasts.

Integration

ACC also offers over 200 integrations with the Autodesk Connect tool.

ACC vs BIM 360, both powerful software platforms that can help construction teams manage their projects more effectively. However, there are some key differences between the two platforms.

ACC is a more comprehensive platform that offers a wider range of features, including project management, document management, and collaboration tools. BIM 360 is a more specialised platform that focuses on 3D modeling and collaboration and ACC will be the new platform moving forward.

Ultimately, the best platform for you will depend on your specific needs and requirements. If you are looking for a comprehensive platform that can help you manage all aspects of your construction projects, then Autodesk Construction Cloud is a good option. If you are looking for a specialised platform that can help you with 3D modeling and collaboration, then BIM 360 is a good option.

Support has been added for feature lines in the <None> site (siteless feature lines).
Project Explorer is now launched from the Home tab of the Civil 3D ribbon.
Project Explorer is now available in all languages currently supported by Civil 3D. The assigned language for Project Explorer is determined by the regional language settings in Windows.

Grading Optimisation

For AEC Collection users, Civil 3D now includes Grading Optimisation which works as a preliminary terrain optimisation tool for site designers. It uses design data and automates otherwise repetitive manual grading tasks according to customized object constraints.

Available objects include:

zones
drain lines
low points
building pads and reveals
curbs
sidewalks
paths
parking lots
ponds

Once these objects are defined with their project relate constraints, Grading Optimization delivers an optimized terrain surface and 3D geometry back into the design tool for further detailed design.

What's New in Autodesk Revit 2022

Autodesk Revit 2022’s main focus has been on four main areas:

Design Productivity across Architecture, Civil, MEP and Structure
Interoperability workflow enhancements between Revit and both Autodesk and third-party tools, coupled with support for open standards and additional file formats for data exchange.
Documentation Efficiency improvements to schedules, tags, annotations, graphics, and similar features.
Developer Tools with additional capabilities offered via Dynamo and the Revit API.

Design Productivity

Tapered Walls

The 2022 release now has tapered walls.

Specify sloping angles for interior and exterior surfaces
Override type slope properties at the instance level
Edit Profile for Slanted Walls

Change any wall to a tapered wall by changing the cross-section parameter to tapered.

Update the sloping angles using instance overrides or the wall’s temporary dimensions.

Align wall-hosted components to the sloped interior or exterior faces of the wall with clean joins at corner conditions.

Modify the sketch boundaries of a slanted wall along its work plane.

Enhanced RPCs in Realistic Views

2022 now supports the RPC 2.0 file format:

Display complex geometries, physical-based materials and lighting
‘Billboard’ mode orients RPCs towards the camera
Use RPC for Furniture Category
Expanded RCP Asset Library

The support of the RPC 2.0 format displays high-resolution, complex images with physical-based materials and lighting with greater parameter intelligence and control.

Route Analysis Tools

The People Flow Toolkit technology preview has been added into Revit as standard, providing four new tools under Route Analysis to visualise, automate and analyse the impacts of physical distancing and routes within a design.

Generate multiple paths of travel options between point with the ability to summarise them in a schedule;
Indicate the direction of travel with One-Way Indicator family; this indicator of the annotation category can be nested within door families if needed
Place people content to represent occupants with built-in buffers. These buffers are recognised as clearances during route analysis; and
Overlay a spatial grid in rooms to visually aid in distributing elements to meet prescribed physical separation requirements.

Rename Default Shared Site

Clearly named survey point to help avoid confusion
Supports all 151 ENU templates for all countries.

Infrastructure Enhancements

Revit families created using the generic model family template can be assigned to the Bridge and Road categories and subcategories (e.g. Abutments, Piers, and many more).

Rebar can be hosted and be defined as cuttable in views, scheduled, tagged, etc.

There has also been minor enhancements to alignment stationing:

Prefixes and suffixes may be added to alignment station text.
Flip controls have been added to the alignment station label.
The true start and end stations of an alignment are now exposed in the Revit API to help automate bridge design.

Fabrication Improvements

There is more flexibility to the Design to Fabrication tool with mapping enabled during the conversion process to fabrication parts.
Elements can be connected by dragging connectors in-canvas and design parts and fittings will be placed.
Configuration reload process has been optimized to reduce the number of elements checked out while work-sharing, which results in a reduction of the time to process.

Systems Analysis

A new feature has been included in the Revit Systems Analysis to get more detailed loads and psychrometric reports.

A user can view a floor plan, 3D view or explore results in the report on a single screen.

After running a simulation on a Systems Analysis model view the summary information for QA/QC checks on multiple unit systems. Reports show a breakdown of load components, totals for sizing equipment, a psychrometric chart, and detailed psychrometric state point properties in a printable formats.

The workflows for exporting to gbXML have been consolidated into a new dialog.

Family Category Improvements

There are new Family Categories for Equipment and Building Elements:

Audio Visual Devices
Fire Protection
Food Service Equipment
Hardscape
Medical Equipment
Signage
Temporary Structures
Vertical Circulation

Expanded Category List for MCS and MTs has also been included.

When creating multi-category schedules you will find more categories and sub-categories are available in the table.

This improvement enhances the ability to schedule system categories.

Move Rebar in a Set

Rebar modelling and detailing has been improved in 2022 with the ability for structural enginers and detailers to move/remove individual bars in rebar sets or area and path reinforcement systems to avoid clashes with other rebars, openings or other elements, while maintaining the logic of the rebar set or system.

Model Rebar Using the Real Bar Diameter

New “Model Bar Diameter” parameter
Avoid clashes in concrete elements containing many large diameter bars

Rebar Placement by Two Points

New placement method
Reduces number of steps needed to create bars

Select Shape Code for Custom Bent Free Form Rebar

No need to reapply rebar settings for each set

Rebar Performance Improvements

Improved zooming and panning in 2D views at Fine detail
Quick regeneration of views containing rebars

Improved Parameter Identification UI

Revit 2022 allows you to quickly filter and find available parameters when creating schedules or when working with project parameters.

When you create a schedule or when working in the Project Parameters dialog, the Fields tab in the Schedule Properties dialog includes a filter section

Filter the available parameters based on the following criteria: Parameter Name, Parameter Type, Discipline, Value, Type or Instance

Load Autodesk Family

Previously a technology preview, this new addition allows you to load content provided by Autodesk through a cloud repository.

Interoperability

Native 2D PDF Export

A native, configurable 2D PDF export feature is included in Autodesk Revit 2022.

Offering similar options to the Print dialog, such as a user-defined selection of views and sheets or the ability to export the visible portion of a view.

In the the Export Setup section of the dialog, users can setup PDF naming rules and can use this feature to generate PDF file names automatically based on your project or shared name parameters.

By automatically analysing the the selected views and sheets, the exporter can detect output size and orientation.

Link Rhinoceros® (3DM) Files

Link a Rhino (3DM) file into Revit and if the source file changes, users can reload the file and it will update inside of Revit.

In addition, you can link your Rhino files in Autodesk Docs.

Documentation Efficiency

Enable Scheduling of Worksets

Worksets can now be scheduled in 2022 and users can add a Workset parameter in workshared models when creating a schedule.

The workset parameter can also be accessed when creating takeoffs and lists (view, sheet) and title blocks allowing users to filter and format schedules based on worksets.

Schedule Enhancements

Shared Parameters in Key Schedules
Filter Schedule by Family and Type
Split Schedules Across Sheets

Export Schedules to CSV by Default

Schedules can now be exported as a csv file and when adding a schedule to a sheet, it can be exported as a CAD or CSV.

Multiple Values Indication

Apply multiple values indication to all types of schedule
Customise the indication value

Tag Improvements

The following improvements have been made to:

Rotated Tags
Multi-leader tags
Tag curtain wall mullions

When you rotate a tag in Revit, a new Angle parameter for tags, found in the Properties Palette is available.

If you rotate the tag with the Rotate command, the angle value is automatically calculated, but you can enter a specific value afterwards if you like.

If a view in your project contains similar elements, you may prefer that they share a tag.

In Revit 2022, users have the ability to apply a single tag to multiple elements and optionally, indicate the total quantity.

Once a tag has been placed in the model, users can add or remove leaders to similar host elements by selecting the tag and using the Add / Remove Host option.

The quantity of host elements is automatically tracked and displayed both in the tag itself and in the Properties Palette.

Revit 2022 enables tags to be applied to curtain wall mullions.

A new category has been added for Curtain Wall Mullions in the Loaded Tags and Symbols dialog.

Users can to load the tag for curtain wall mullions provided with Revit 2022 or create their own tag specifically for this category.

Users can use the Tag by Category command or the Tag All command to tag curtain wall mullions.

Multi-category Tag for All Taggable Categories

Apply a multi-category annotation to all taggable elements
Use shared parameters in multi-category tags
Additional categories include stair subcategories, structural connections, structural internal loads, and more
