Hi I am looking for building architect over in this forum to comment.
One architect company is looking for justification to use FlexSim in their design process. Surely I can tell them that they can validate their design before confirmation. However their concern is the use of simulation might actually lengthen the design process as the designing tool and simulation tool are not on the different platform. As such they will need to re-create the model in FlexSim for simulation, (or the most they can import the BIM drawing into FlexSim). Changes in the design is not possible to export back to the BIM tool. They will need to spend time to change the BIM design again. Hence the time is actually longer.
What is your comment on such a claim? How you have overcome such issue? Looking forward to your comment.
