Room data sheets are arranged lists of the requirements that are specific to certain types of rooms. They are typically developed during the briefing (or architectural programming in the US) phase of a design plan and help to clarify the client’s requirements for each space type. They can be used to develop specifications that help contractors and design teams know what is expected of each space and how to make sure that any proposed solution is in line with the requirements of the client.

Architects and other members of design teams, like engineers and interior designers make rooms data sheets. They are a work in progress and can remain as a living document until the client has endorsed the final architectural design. The information from the room sheets of data can be synchronized to the Revit model by a process called backfilling. This method of verification helps to ensure that the information in the room accurately corresponds to the requirements of the final documents, and can be used to identify any gaps.

The Room Data Sheets component of BriefBuilder makes it simple to create room data sheets and use to synchronize them with the Revit model. It comes with a template set and pre-programmed selection lists for electrical and structural disciplines and HVAC and plumbing. It allows the insertions of graphics and drawings that are thumbnail-sized.

The component is simple to use and requires no specific setup. It can load configurations previously saved, which can reduce the time needed to set up. It allows properties such as the size, organization of the browser, and the name of each view to be defined.
