Learn the BIM principles that connect structural building design with construction documentation in Autodesk Revit Structure.
Get to know the interface and core structural components, then use the tools needed to create, document and print a parametric model. Exercises draw on a variety of building types.
This course is designed for new users of Revit Structure.
Courseware Objectives
Develop familiarity with the software’s interface and structural components while practising the creation, modification, analysis and documentation of parametric models.
BENEFITS OF Revit Structure Essentials TRAINING
Familiarity with Revit's structural tool
Improved collaboration and coordination
Accurate analysis and design
BIM (Building Information Modeling) expertise
