Use Forma for outcome-based BIM
This video provides a hands-on demonstration of Autodesk Forma, showcasing how it integrates real-world data and AI-powered tools to optimize design outcomes. Learn how to navigate Forma’s interface, analyze environmental factors like sunlight, wind, and embodied carbon, and make informed design decisions directly in a data-rich environment. By combining rapid analysis with actionable insights, Forma empowers architects and designers to create sustainable, efficient, and impactful designs from the earliest stages of a project.
After completing this video, you’ll be able to:
- Use Forma’s data rich environment to inform early design decisions.
- Integrate AI-driven insights to achieve better outcomes.
- Conduct sun hour analysis to evaluate daylight exposure on facades.
- Use solar power analysis to determine a site or concept’s potential for solar power generation.
- Assess wind impact to identify potential wind tunnels and comfort levels.
