OVERVIEW
Autodesk’s Revit Architecture is a Building Information Modeling software tool
for architects, structural engineers, engineers and contractors. It allows users
to design a building and its components in 3D, annotate the model with 2D
drafting elements and access building information from the building models
database. Revit comes with tools to plan and track various stages in the
building's life cycle, from concept to construction and later demolition.
WHY SHOULD YOU LEARN
Revit software delivers tools that support architectural design, MEP
engineering, structural engineering, and construction. Revit is specifically built
for BIM to help you design, build, and maintain higher-quality, more
energy-efficient buildings. Comprehensive features make it an ideal solution
for the entire building project team.
By learning Revit, you as a design and construction professional will be able to
bring ideas from concept to construction with a coordinated and consistent
model-based approach.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- You will know how to develop higher-quality, more accurate
architectural designs; use tools specifically built to support Building
Information Modeling workflows.
- Collaboration: work-sharing- multiple users save their work to a central
file; collaboration on shared models across a WAN; work from remote
locations using a local server.
- Design: More easily model, edit, and document designs of stairs and
railings; parametric components - graphical system for design, form
making; HVAC/electrical design room color-fill plans and
communication of design intent, visually.
- Visualization for creating displaced building design views; improvement
of performance for visualization; capturing of design ideas in a
photorealistic state, and reduction of project cost with cloud-based
rendering.
