Overview:
Architecture is a powerful Building Information Modeling (BIM) program that works the way Architects think. From Preliminary Design through Design Development, and into Construction Documents, the program streamlines the design process with a central 3D model. Changes made in one view update across all views and on the printable sheets.
Since building projects themselves tend to be extremely complex, Revit Architecture is a necessarily complex program. The objective of the Revit Architecture® 2011 Fundamental course is to enable students to create full 3D architectural project models and set them up in working drawings. You begin by learning about the user interface and the Revit commands for design development followed by those available for construction documentation.
Duration: 32 hours

Fundamental Topics:
- Understand the purpose of Building Information Management (BIM) and how it is applied in Revit.
- Use the Revit Architecture workspace and interface.
- Work with the basic drawing and editing tools in Revit.
- Create Levels and Grids as datum elements for the model.
- Create a 3D building model with walls, windows, and doors.
- Add floors and roofs to the building model.
- Create standard and custom stairs.
- Detail Reflected Ceiling Plans with ceilings and lighting fixtures.
