However, using Ideate BIMLink, this task can be expedited significantly using Excel formulas. Whereas the adequacy of this 'mapping system' is largely debatable, and a topic beyond the purpose of this post, mapping existing system classification codes with new ones can be a daunting manual task using out-of-the-box Revit capabilities. Even with the impetus of UniFormat, a large share of existing estimating practices still need the flexibility of mapping model elements with MasterFormat codes for estimating purposes. In fact, Revit already provides UniFormat based Assembly Codes as type parameters in most system and out of the box component families. In contrast, Building Information Modeling has favored the use of the UniFormat since the system is aligned with the digital creation of systems and assemblies, as opposed to materials and methods. ![]() General contractors and trade fabricators have historically used CSI MasterFormat as the primary way to classify cost estimation data in North America.
