Autodesk Revit From Beginner to Professional

Learn how to install Revit 2020, download the trial, run the installer, configure content libraries, and manage the license for a complete setup.

Explore the Revit user interface, including the file tab, quick access toolbar, ribbon, view control bar, steering wheel, compass, and project browser, to manage views, elements, and settings.

Start a new Revit project by selecting new project from the file menu, choose a template in the template window, and open the project automatically.

Save your Revit project from the file tab using save or save as. Configure backups, the starting view, and regenerate if sheets are not up to date.

Access the options window via the file tab to adjust general, user interface, rendering, spelling, and macros. Learn to support collaboration with a central model and manage hardware acceleration.

Transfer project standards in Revit by using two open projects, the manage tab, and the transfer window to copy annotations, materials, family types, line types, and mechanical settings.

Learn to use snaps in Autodesk Revit to align walls and elements, control snap settings and increments for distance and angle, and apply temporary overrides for grading with reference lines.

Use the selection box to isolate and view only selected elements. Activate the section box to visualize your model with a box-shaped section, then adjust or hide it as needed.

Master the properties filter in Revit to select multiple elements, view their shared properties, and change family types using a simple dropdown, streamlining selection and edits to view-specific properties.

Master undo and redo in Revit using the quick access toolbar or keyboard shortcuts. Revert or reapply edits to shapes, drawings, families, and elements during your design process.

Learn to use snaps and shape handles to edit walls and annotations, apply point controls to extend walls, and adjust elevations and sections through dimensions and families.

Attach walls to floors and roofs in Revit using the attach base tool, adjust boundaries and profiles, and validate changes in elevation or section views.

Explore new Revit 2020 features, including drawing ellipse walls with radius controls, base and shape adjustments, and the ability to attach walls to roofs or floors while preserving attachment settings.

Explore Revit 2022's tapered cross section, override a wall's structure with an exterior angle via instance controls and blue handles, and edit angles using properties to swap family types.

Create roofs by extrusion in revit using a plane reference, draw a single continuous profile, and adjust start and end via extrusion properties, then coordinate groups with join and align.

Learn to create, draw the boundary, and validate ceilings in Revit, using a floor as host, set 2.8 m height, and apply automatic ceilings.
