Hey friends! Here@HAYNE we are Revit fans (with mixed emotions about some things) and thought it would be fun to rate the standard component library it comes with. Some categories are great while others could use some changes and then there ones I've never opened. We...
Our Sierra Towers project is moving into construction, and as we start demolition to field verify some existing conditions (like drain pipe and mechanical ductwork locations) we spent some time refining our cabinetry designs. As we've talked about previously, our current work-flow is to create...

The energy efficiency of our buildings is important and one way that we verify our code compliance with current energy codes is to define the energy efficiency of our windows and doors. Here at Hayne we typically identify the Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) and...
Here at Hayne, we are on a deadline for one of our projects in Colorado and we've started to notice that the Universe might not entirely be on our side...
With a few commercial projects in development here at Hayne, we have been spending time reviewing the Building Code (thank you UpCodes!) to calculate occupancy and minimum plumbing fixtures required. When we worked in AutoCad this would be completed as a separate calculation, maybe in...
