This slideshow was used to present my senior thesis to faculty and visiting industry.

1. FLORIDA HOSPITAL REFERENCE LAB
A SPECIAL THESIS USING BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING AND PAPERLESS DELIVERY
ZACK CREACH

2. PURPOSE
 Create three comprehensive models using Autodesk
Revit 2009 to be linked together and used to create
an estimate
 Understanding
 Passion
 Challenge
 Approach all aspects without use of physical paper
 Adobe .PDF, Microsoft .XLS, Autodesk .RVT
 Delivered via website
EFFICIENCY

3. THESIS SCHEDULE

4. STRUCTURAL MODEL

5. ARCHITECTURAL MODEL

6. ESTIMATE PROCESS
1 Create schedule within Revit to
be exported
2 Export schedule into Excel to
be subtotaled
Input subtotal into main estimate
3 spreadsheet and assign
labor, material, equipment, and
subcontractor prices

7. ESTIMATE
Estimate and recap are combined to create mastersheet
 Achieved through “grouping” feature in excel
 Hyperlinks used to navigate divisions
 SOV, CPM Sheets, and Pay Apps all linked from mastersheet
