BIM with Revit Architecture

Revit Architecture is an integrated architectural design and documentation environment. Revit users create a virtual building model of design with intelligent building elements. These smart, parametric building elements are automatically adjusted and interact with the design environment, and at the same time Revit creating views such as floor plans, sections, elevations, schedules, and so on.  This program aims to enhance the participants productivity by giving them the ability to produce below course objectives.

Course Objectives

  • Understand the user interface, parametric objects, hierarchy of elements and start projects using templates.
  • Create accurate Structural building elements with reinforcement such as Structural foundation, Columns, beams, stairs, Floors and Slabs.
  • Create and Modification of various and complex architectural designs be using Architectural elements (Compound wall, Curtain wall, stairs, railing Roof, ramp and mass elements).
  • Create and Modification of Views such as Floor plans, Structural plans, sections, elevations.
  • Annotate and detailing the created views by using Hatching (Filled and masking region), Line styles, dimension, and text styles.
  • Create Schedules for Quantiles and material take off and export them to excel format.
  • Create 2D Drawing sheets for council approval and set of working drawing such as structural layout plan, setting out plan, detailed callouts and export as pdf or dwg format.
  • Create images and walkthrough animations and export image and video files.

Learning Outcomes

  • Participance will be able to develop higher-quality, more accurate structural and architectural designs; use tools specifically built to support Building Information Modeling workflows.
  • Participance will be able to Create accurate 2D drawing sheets.
  • Participance will be able to develop Quantities and material takeoff schedules for all architectural and structural elements.
  • Participance will be able to precent 3D rendered images and animation walkthrough video.
