Site Planning with Forma & Space Programming with Hypar

2 AIA Continuing Education credits provided by AIA Detroit upon course approval.

DESCRIPTION:

Early design decisions shape cost, performance, and access throughout a project's life. At this DABUG session, two presenters show how modern tools help teams test ideas sooner and with more confidence.

Hypar: Learn how to turn a building program into space requirements, review early layouts for adjacencies, and check circulation routes and corridor widths for barriers to access.

Autodesk Forma Site Design (IMAGINiT): Learn how to compare site and building options against sun, wind, noise, and zoning. You'll also learn to get performance feedback while you design, avoid late rework, and review options with stakeholders in a web browser.

This session suits architects, engineers, BIM managers, and technology leaders. You do not need to be a technical user to attend!
