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.

Learn how to design multifamily housing, including apartment buildings and duplexes, in Revit.

As the building information modeling (BIM) methodology and philosophy becomes more widely used in architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC), it's become increasingly important to grasp how to incorporate BIM into your workflows. In this course, learn the fundamentals of the BIM philosophy, how it fits into industry usage and government strategies, and how to use Autodesk Revit to optimize CAD workflows that relate to BIM. Instructor Shaun Bryant shares practical strategies and best practices to help you grasp essential BIM concepts, as well as how to most efficiently work with CAD drawings in Revit, set up worksharing to facilitate easy collaboration, use sheets in Revit, create schedules, publish your project, and more.

Tame unruly parametric curves. Learn how to control the curvature of nonrectilinear geometry such as circles, arcs, arches, splines, and complex curves like cyma moldings.

Learn how to create custom furniture for your BIM models using Revit families and templates.

Phasing in Autodesk Revit allows you to show the complete life cycle of a project, such as a before and after or existing and proposed status, while design options allow you to save multiple iterations of a concept in a single project file. In this course, Paul F. Aubin shows how to use phasing and design options to organize multipart, multifaceted projects in Revit. The course also covers adding and assigning phases to views, scheduling phases and designating future work, working with design option sets, and presenting complex designs to clients.
