As construction sites continue to limit outside visitors due to the Coronavirus, a large number of meetings have transitioned to video conferencing. Zoom has emerged as a favorite video conferencing software for basically the entire country – and construction is no different.

BIM 360, Autodesk’s project management platform, has recently released a free integration with Zoom to make offsite collaboration even easier. When setting up a meeting agenda, the organizer can simply hit the “Add Zoom Meeting button” to attach the web conference to the agenda.
On the flip side, the meeting attendees will have a link to the Zoom meeting attached to the meeting agenda that is sent out. No need to leave the BIM 360 platform to set up or join the meeting.
If you’ve been using web conferencing already, there’s no doubt the screen sharing ability built into most of the platforms is a huge plus for contractors. Quickly pull up plans, RFIs, pictures, or any other document and review it with your whole team virtually.
Zoom also offers co-annotation, which allows viewers in the meeting to mark up a shared document in real-time, either on the desktop client or mobile app. Since pointing on a piece of paper won’t be an option for a virtual meeting, this is a great alternative.
