Dr. Fukai,
I am very interested in your approach. Very interesting! I’ve been wishing all along that somebody would come up with examples that took the building complexity aspect out of the equation so you could learn how to use the tool more thoroughly.
We would like to invite you to contribute to the BIM Wiki website. We’ve added a link to your site and also think it would be great if you posted some information about your books and philosophies.

Thanks!

I may be misunderstding your email (or perhaps it’s just a generic mailing), but I went to your site but really couldn’t figure out the program. If you want to send a description and how your work applies to 3D Construction Modeling I’d be happy to post it to the blog. 3D modeling illustrations will also be important…
Good luck

I think I understd your system, tho not really clear if it is a SkUp product or a Revit product or just straight out of ACAD. And tho it seems to have application to wall framing, not sure how it might apply to roof framing, trusses, or general construction, including foundations and MEP.
I can understd your concerns for property rights, but perhaps you would like to write an article for the 3D Const Modelg blog clarifying these applications that we can post on the site for you. If you submit a draft, we will edit it here and return it to you for approval b4 posting. You can also include model images and perhaps a diagram of the concept and I will point readers to your website with your email.
Happy to help if we can.
Good luck and happy holiday.
