Following on from my previous post on BIM History, here are some more covers from RUN – the RUCAPS Users Newsletter.
RUN 16 – Sept 1988
The Front and back covers featured drawing competition winners from 1987 – these demonstrated the ability to generate coordinated elevation views from the 2.5/3D model. This may not seem like a big deal nowadays but this was done 37 years ago – over a decade before Revit was born.
RUN 17 – Winter 1988

RUN 18 – Spring 1989
I was editor in chief of the magazine by this stage.
We decided to publish a Technical Supplement that contained all the RUCAPS technical articles from the previous 18 issues – updated.
The front and back covers again showed examples of coordinated elevations generated from the 3D model. In those days we did not have tools to…
