Course Description:

'' Revit 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.

The objective of the Revit Architecture Fundamentals course is to enable students to create full 3D architectural project models and set them up in working drawings. Most of the course is focused on Design Development tools - building the 3D model with walls, windows, doors, floors, roofs, stairs, creating reflected ceiling plans and furniture plans. The course finishes with adding views and annotation to the sheets to create a set of Construction Documents.

Topics include:

�Understanding the purpose of Building Information Management (BIM) and how it is applied in Revit
�Using the Revit Architecture workspace and interface
�Adding walls to a massing study and create a presentation sheet
�Working with the basic drawing and editing tools in Revit
�Creating Levels and Grids as datum elements for the model
�Creating a 3D building model with walls, windows, and doors
�Adding floors and roofs to the building model
�Creating standard and custom stairs
�Detailing Reflected Ceiling Plans with ceilings and lighting fixtures
�Adding component features such as furniture and equipment
�Setting up sheets for plotting with text, dimensions, details, tags and schedules

Prerequisites

�An understanding of Architectural terminology is an asset.
