Hi all,
I have been given the task over summer (sth hemisphere) to model one of our university's demonstration houses and then be able to view the BIM in situ via the use of a tablet such as an iPad. This would be used for educational purposes so that students and visitors to the house can "see through the walls" to see how the services and structure are put together and in the future to possibly relay live data of the HVAC and other services in the house.
I guess my question is how effective would BIM360 be for this task and how would I go about doing this? (Field or glue or both?)
Hello Raymond,
Thank you for participating in our community!
You can view model using BIM 360 Field or BIM 360 Glue. Please, visit BIM 360 Field and BIM 360 Glue Features and Benefit page for more information. Also, I want to let you know that Students, educators, and academic institutions worldwide have free access to Autodesk software.
Please, visit Autodesk’s Education Community Home page for additional resources. Click on this link to download BIM 360 Glue http://www.autodesk.com/education/free-software/all. BIM 360 Field is not listed on this site but let me know if you would like to get access and will send you Grant Form via private message.
Please, let me know if this helps.
Thank you and have a great day!
Best regards,
Thank you for your fast response,
I was also wondering whether you believe the BIM360 apps will be suitable for what I plan to do with them? Or if there is another product that may be useful for the task?

Hello. I'm also interested to know if there is any chance to use BIM-360-Field for educational purposes. In my case, I would like to use it for the development of my master's thesis. I'm currently involved in a research on the viability and advantages of the application of on-site BIM technologies for the management of information generated at the construction phase of projects. Also, I'm currently testing the free trial version with a colleague involved in the same line of research and we think it would be really helpful for us to have a chance to use the app for the development of our respective researches here in Brazil.
Please find attached the links below, related to the University and the research group:

Hello Raymond,
Both BIM 360 Field and BIM 360 Glue should work fine.
Thank you and have a great day!

I would like to get access to it. Today we made some test on-site with the trial version and it was really helpful. Please send me the form to jose.villamayor@ufrgs.br or to josevillamayor86@gmail.com

I have installed the bim360 glue and field apps, but I am having trouble uploading anything to them. Do I need the BIM360 glue desktop program? Adn is there a way for me to download the BIM360 glue desktop program as a student also? I can only see the 30 day trial for glue and field.
