Designing and delivering a large infrastructure project like a Metro Rail Station requires seamless collaboration among multiple teams—architects, engineers, fabricators, procurement teams, and government stakeholders.
But with traditional file-based sharing, teams often struggle with:
Data loss and duplication
Rework due to version mismatches
Heavy model files slowing coordination
Delays in decision-making
This webinar showcases how Autodesk Data Exchange Connectors solve these challenges by enabling lightweight, object-level data sharing across platforms like Revit, Tekla, AutoCAD, Inventor, Rhino, Civil 3D, Navisworks, ACC, and Power BI.
The Metro Rail Station Case Study
In this webinar, we’ll walk you through an Metro Rail Station design project, featuring the key roles involved:
Architect (Revit) - Creates the station’s design but struggles with sharing only relevant subsets with other teams.
BIM Engineer (Revit) - Manages model coordination, facing difficulties with large, heavy files.
Structural Engineer (Tekla) - Needs accurate structural data but faces inefficiency with file transfers.
MEP Engineer (AutoCAD) - Requires architectural and structural data but only a small subset, not full models.
Fabricator (Inventor) - Needs precise geometry and properties without redundant design data.
Purchase Department - Needs quantities and specifications for procurement but not full 3D models.
Government/Project Sponsor - Wants progress insights without dealing with technical complexities.
Project Manager - Needs consolidated, up-to-date data to track progress and ensure delivery.
Without Data Exchange: Each role struggles with inefficiency, errors, and delays caused by siloed workflows.
With Data Exchange: Each challenge is resolved by securely sharing only the required data subsets, ensuring smooth interoperability across all teams.
