Worksets for the start of a project

Here are some basic Worksets to include at the start of any project.

Create the following Worksets .
  • Shared Grids and Levels
  • Project tracker
  • Exterior Shell
  • Interior
  • Central Core
  • Roof
  • Parkade
  • Structure (if applicable)
  • Stairs
These are a good starting point and more can be added as the project and project team develops.
Send detached Central file to consultants along with these recommended Worksets.
Consultants can then open detached and “Save As” to create their own Central File.
All Consultants
All consultants should include the following Worksets, this way all parties involved can control the linked files consistently.
