This training is intended to introduce students to the user interface and the basic building components of the software that make it a powerful and flexible structural modeling tool. The goal is to familiarize you with the tools necessary to create, modify, and document your parametric model. Topics include:
§Introduction to Autodesk Revit Structure, Basic Drawing, and Editing Tools.
§Setting up Levels and Grids, Working with Views.
§Starting a structural project based on a linked architectural model.
§Adding structural Columns and Walls.
§Adding Foundations and structural slabs.
§Structural Reinforcement.
§Beams and Framing Systems.
§Annotating Construction Documents, Detailing, Scheduling.
Take full advantage of Building Information Modeling, this training has been designed to teach the concepts and principles from building design through construction documentation using Autodesk Revit Structure.
