Course Overview: During the Training session we'll focus on customizing and expanding the Revit Architecture tools that you work with on a daily basis.
The Challenge topics covered in this course include but are not limited to:
• Advanced family processes for creating custom cornices and copings as well as stairs and railings.
• Exposes you to data exchange options with other design packages
• Massing studies
• Provides an in depth look at Worksets for effective project collaboration with the Revit Structure & MEP.
• Learn how to create and import site information into their models and add structural components.
• Setting up Revit with templates, object styles, and materials
• Creating families and family types
• Using massing elements for conceptual design
• Space planning and area analysis
• Linking Schedules
• Importing, exporting and linking files
• Rendering and other visualization tools

Objective: Learn how to make use of the more complex and detailed features available in Revit Architecture.
Prerequisites: It is highly recommended that trainees that are planning to attend have completed the Revit Fundamentals & Revit Core Concepts or have a good working knowledge of Revit Architecture.
