CAD 166 - Introduction to Revit 4 Credits, 6 Contact Hours 3 lecture periods 3 lab periods Introduction to Building Information Modeling (BIM) for architectural applications using Revit. Includes how to access tools, build a parametric model, reference levels and views, and produce drawing sheets. Create 3-dimensional elements (families) that contain variable characteristics and embed design intent. Extract, analyze, and modify model information by generating additional section views, rendered perspectives, and schedules.
Course Learning Outcomes
- Access and manage computer files to facilitate collaboration.
- Employ Revit families to model walls, floors, roofs, doors, and windows with the use of appropriate datums.
- Produce schematic drawings informed by a conventional architectural construction documentation process.
- Create a new Revit family with parametric elements.
- Evaluate, modify, and develop the model through generated views, sections, and schedules.
- Differentiate effective design communication techniques.
