Guidelines

Below are some guidelines that we expect team members with admin level permissions to maintain on each project. The goal is that all teams feel comfortable working in this manner and are able to be self-sufficient.


  • Admin access should only be given to those approved by and assigned access by Equip Studio. This is typically only one person per team, and is typically the BIM Manager.

  • Teams should not be renamed nor the existing team file structure modified or renamed.

  • Linking to models should still be done using the methods approved by Equip. Equip currently uses the "Controlled Sharing" method.

  • Please adhere to the naming conventions that have been outlined on the Naming Conventions page where applicable.

  • Where a consultant team member has been given Project Admin permission level, Equip will generally maintain a "hands-off" approach to things related to that particular team. Equip will not alter team member permission settings related to any Level Two Consultant team, except when required and requested by the consultant team.

    • Admin access is granted in order to give access to all aspects of the respective team. While access to other team's folders and spaces is included with this permission level, admins should not do anything in other team's spaces. This would include:

        • accessing other team's files, models, or folders

        • publishing other team's models

        • renaming files or folders outside of your team folder (in addition, do not rename your team or team's folder)

        • sharing, consuming, or deleting packages for other teams

        • changing permissions for members outside of your team

        • changing permissions for folders

        • adding/deleting members not on your team
