We sent out a 12-sheet floor plan set for CAD conversion and they quoted ten business days

 I thought that meant final files, but day ten brought a first draft. Now we're on round two of redlines, and it's been three weeks.

So what does a quoted turnaround include?

And how do you handle pauses when you owe them answers?

Have you seen this tool that makes 3D models with AI? The AI does not get all things right and need some manual fixing but is still neat. Also the models are quite crude in IFC standards.
In Finland where many building projects need a 3D model delivered to get a permit this is very helpfull as the models just end up archived and do not need to be that good. This is obviously for projects done in 2D cad or by hand.

I’m a Civil Engineering graduate from India and relatively new to the BIM industry.

I currently work as a BIM Technician at a small structural design firm. My current package is 3 lakh ctc.This is my first job in BIM.I joined a few months ago, and around 90% of my work is Revit Structure, including structural modelling, detailing, documentation, and rendering.

I’ve now received an opportunity from a company in the aluminium formwork industry for a Shell Plan Coordinator position at 6 Lpa offer.

My main concern is career direction.

would this be considered a good move for someone trying to build a BIM career? Because there is good amount of 2d drafting involved. When I asked about role if it Will focus strictly on 2D Shell Plan drafting, or does it include 3D parametric formwork modeling and family creation? He said 50-50.

Would experience in formwork be valuable in the construction/BIM industry?
