Autodesk Education Community: Construction Management

Autodesk provides virtual design and construction management solutions to help improve the overall planning, coordination, and control of a project from beginning to end. The Autodesk BIM solutions allow you to explore and evaluate a project’s constructability before it’s built, improve cost reliability, visualize construction processes through 4D simulation and clash detection, increase coordination between stakeholders throughout the design and construction process, and better predict, manage and communicate project outcomes.

Be sure and watch this informative video that was created Solar Decathlon teams that outlines the workflow and all the tools available to you.
