I took some time out last night to attend the Australian Institute of Architects/Consult Australia launch of the BIM in Practice documents. For the last 2 years they have been putting together some reference material to assist the industry. They’re documents to make you think, documents to get your started to to steer you and your company on the right track.
From the webiste:
The material is the first output from four cross-disciplinary working groups under the direction of the BIM & IPD Steering Group established by the Australian Institute of Architects and Consult Australia. Groups of highly respected built environment industry professionals have built on previous efforts to develop guidance and resources for practitioners who work using BIM and who aspire to implement IPD on their projects.
Last night’s event launched those documents and a new website, BIM/IPD Australia, as well as acknowledging the work of the individuals and companies involved in the working groups which produced those reference documents.
The documents deal with and give guidance on –
BIM Management Plans
BIM Legal and Procurement
BIM Education
BIM Outreach
was wondering if you know of anything for revit mep that changes the symbolic view of items into australian standard symbols and if you have could you reference me the link or download site for this please?
Thank you

Josh,
You’ll have to create the 2D annotation symbols yourself. It’s not overly time consuming to do and you’ll find that even though most symbols are based on an Australian Standard, they are not the same and some companies have different symbols.
