Has anyone looked into this Ebook? Aimed at Advanced users and at a reasonable price.

I am hesitant at getting it as I may not actually learn new information or insight per the topic at hand presented in the book.

Any thoughts, experience stories most welcomed!

Do you have an SSA (Service Support Agreement) or Forward agreement?

If so, the e-book is free if you apply the code.

 

I have never read it so I can't say if it is good or not.

I've looked through these guides in the SSA content area.  From what I reviewed, I would characterize most of the content as most relevant to a BIM managers role within an office.  The guides contain several flow charts, grids, and approaches to setting up office template/s, sectioning and detailing the model for various needs, collaboration methods, and so forth.  The building diagrams they utilize are fairly straightforward conditions: two story home, commercial floor, etc).  What workflow content I did not see in my quick read-through were suggestions of a variety of element modeling approaches, tricks for a variety of unusual circumstances, or the many ways to use various elements to achieve stated goals (where this forum is much more educational).

 

With that, depending on your present AC skill and role, may find them very useful or just helpful in making sure you are well organized in your BIM setup. Perhaps GS can provide for you the content outlines  and/or some sample pages to help determine the added value for you.
