ITERATIVE MODELING3ds Max Mesh Modeling Revit BIM
Pros:
Speed: No link update necessary, changes can be modeled and even rendeinteractively.
Versatility: Sometimes its useful (liberating?) to be able to model iterationsoutside BIM rules.
Cons:
Limited use: Better results for simple modifications of existing elements, itrequires practice and creativity to optimize complex modeling tasks.
Doesn't update back to Revit, for reference can be imported in Revit as asolids (STL).

ITERATIVE MODELINGModifiers
Mesh edits appear stacked as layers ofmodifications on each object.
Several objects can share the same modifier.
Renaming modifiers names is important todocument their function.
Case Study: Bridge modifications with EditMesh modifier
