Course details

Autodesk Revit is one of the most popular building information modeling (BIM) solutions today. This course, suitable for both Revit and Revit LT, shows architects and engineers who are new to the software how to use them. Learn how to choose a template; set up the basic levels, grids, and dimensions; and start adding walls, doors, and windows to your model. Instructor Paul F. Aubin also shows how to create views and documentation that clearly communicate your plans, import files from other CAD programs, and produce construction documents.
