Konstru Workflows

How can Konstru help reduce the clicks

Konstru enables three primary workflows;

The most common use is One Way model translation, which is the basis for all other workflows. A one way translation refers to the process of translating a 3D BIM model from one linked Konstru platform, to another via the Konstru cloud database.

A round trip translation takes this process to the the next logical step, and refers to the a method of updating the original platform model with changes/ attributes that were picked up during the process of working on the model on the platform that was downloaded into. As a database, Konstru is able to register changes to objects and attributes and apply these to as updates or additions to the database.

Model Merging allows the transfer of objects and information between two models that have at no point in the past been translated by Konstru, or for models who have been worked on independently for a period of time. It is the one Konstru workflow executed entirely via the web interface and is directed at transferring large amounts of Structural data from Analysis models to Revit and Tekla, though it's uses are more nuanced.

You will learn more about each workflow in detail at later sections, but beforehand there are some things to note before deciding how best to utilize any of these workflows.
