Improve your workflow with Revit families. Learn how to model reusable features such as chair rails and baseboards, doors, cabinets, and shelving with Revit architectural families.

Learning the basics of model building in Revit is mostly quick and easy. The essentials of core elements such as walls, floor, and roofs are accessible and fairly intuitive. For more unique and specialized design challenges, discovering appropriate tools and techniques can be more challenging. Many advanced modeling techniques are available, and some are more obvious and intuitive than others. In this course, Paul F. Aubin dives deep into the tools that the Revit conceptual modeling environment has to offer. Whether you want to do a simple building massing study or pro forma analysis, or delve deep into complex shapes and forms like lofted forms, free-form geometry, patterning and repeat tools, the massing environment offers these and many more. Paul mixes standard techniques and outside-the-box thinking as he explores many ways to take your Revit modeling skills to the next level.

Building projects are the product of the application of a variety of trades. When the time comes for construction, you'll develop a BIM Execution Plan (BxP) to govern the workflow across the various trades that come together. In this comprehensive, project-based course, instructor Eric Wing shows you how to apply Civil 3D, Revit, and BIM 360 across the entire scope of a commercial building. Eric takes you through this process from start to finish, using a complete design project. He begins by showing you how to set up the project with a Civil 3D drawing and a Civil Revit model. Eric goes over each step in architectural modeling, from exterior wall systems to stairs, railings, and elevators. He discusses key aspects of structural modeling and MEP modeling, which links in other trades. Eric concludes by showing you how to set up your model so that multiple people can work on it.

Learn how to create, manage, and reuse 2D construction details in Revit as part of your BIM workflow.

House styles and building methods vary all over the world, and European design has some pretty strict code to get through to make sure that the house is warm, breathable, and watertight. In this course, Paul J. Smith applies some of these rules to a super-insulated house on an exposed headland in South Wales, and not only explains the design decisions that need to be considered for the floors, walls and roof, but also how to get more out of Revit by modelling more accurately and with more detail. The temperate climate and exposed position of this house will challenge any designer, so join Paul J. Smith as he recreates this project from the topography to the detail drawings and explains how to design with Revit and not just model.

Revit is one of the most popular building information modeling (BIM) tools, used in numerous fields like architecture, construction, and MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing). But Revit can also be a useful tool for landscape architects, from creating plant features, to customized softscape and hardscape, and specialized presentation and documentation. In this course, Jim Cowan shows you how to take the existing Revit families and objects and modify their properties for use in landscape architecture. Jim shows how you can use Revit to improve visual communication on design intent like water and sunlight requirements, and create a virtual environment rich in data that also allows you to address issues like sustainability—of both natural and planned landscapes.

Explore the Revit coordinate system, how files relate to one another when linked, and how to manage relationships between shared coordinates over time.

Revit families are an incredible feature, offering libraries of ready-made objects that can be used in CAD drawings or customized to fit any project. Families can also be modeled from scratch and shared with colleagues and clients. In this course, Eric Wing dives into Revit MEP families, a specific family type for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) design. Eric shows how to model MEP families on a topic-by-topic basis, so you can learn the ins and outs of family creation while modeling exactly what you need for your drawings. He starts by reviewing the basics: parameters, connectors, dimensions, and various family modeling techniques, then investigates specific parts and systems that can be created with Revit families: electrical panels and junction boxes, recessed and track lighting, HVAC systems with ducting and air terminals, and pipe systems. Along the way, he introduces the reference planes, parameters, shapes, and hosting options necessary to build families on your own.
