Synopsis

This innovative book shows how building design strengths and methods can be used and applied with Autodesk Revit, Autodesk's newest software package for architectural design. Coverage explores the ways in which Revit handles design and documentation tasks, where it is more efficient than AutoCAD or Autodesk Architectural Desktop, and the advantages it presents for making building models. Discussions illustrate how Autodesk Revit can be combined effectively with AutoCAD and Autodesk Architectural Desktop drawings to make the best use of existing files and work practices while readers make the transition to using Autodesk Revit as their primary design tool.
