We invite you to join us on BIM360 where you can enjoy a 24/7 access to files.
No requesting
No waiting
No Emails
No more working on out dated files
If you have decided to forego the time saving method of BIM360 . We can share a link where files can be downloaded at risk of working on disconnected files no longer receiving updates. Please ask your BBA contact for a download link. Please be aware that we do not send design files (.dwg,.rvt) by email. All design files are shared via BIM 360.
We only share Revit files.
Today Revit is bundled with AutoCAD. If you have AutoCAD you have access to Revit as well.
Baker Barrios Architects’ Clients and General contractors,
We would like to thank you for your partnership on our current project together. Baker Barrios Architects, referred to as “BBA” herein, has policies that exist to protect Clients, General Contractors and BBA from liabilities. When honored, these policies aid in maintaining business relationships. BBA has a policy to not convert digital files from their original authoring application to a different file type(s) for distribution. For example; BBA will not convert Revit files to AutoCAD for distribution of any kind. Several complications may occur during the file conversion process from one file type to another. These errors in conversion are not always easy to see and are not realized until construction, costing time and money.
Baker Barrios is open to sharing certain files in their original authoring application format once a digital file indemnification form is reviewed and signed. BBA will only share files with the client or General Contractor directly. BBA will not share files directly with subcontractors. Via Autodesk BIM 360, BBA offers a cloud-based solution where project files and information may be reviewed. Upon request, BBA can provide access to the free viewer through this platform. BBA does not endorse converting PDFs to AutoCAD files using AutoCAD’s “PDF Import” tool(s) and use of this or similar options are to be explored at your own risk.
We hope this explanation of our policy regarding file conversion and distribution clarifies the subject. If you feel that you would like to discuss this policy more in depth, please know that Baker Barrios leadership is happy to discuss your request in person or via a phone/ video call.
Thank you
David Salley
