Welcome guys, thank you for taking interest in my beginner revit course.
This course will take you from a complete beginner to having the ability to complete a full set of working drawings in Revit. I have over 8 years experience as a building designer in australia. This course is completed using Metric Measurements and to australian standards. The course files are available to download in section 3 of the tutorial.
Thanks heaps and let me know i you have any further questions or requested.
This will help you figure out which version of revit you want to use, where to get it from, and pricing.
you can download it from www.autodesk.com.
This section will run through the Revit interface and opening up a new project. all of the course files are also downloadable here.
Navigate your Revit project using the project browser, views, sheets, and the properties panel. Open and place sheets, adjust wall base constraints and heights.
Navigate 2D and 3D views, use the modify tool, place windows in walls, and drag a selection box while the tab key cycles through selection objects.
Set up levels and elevations in Revit, insert elevation markers, and name levels. Adjust ground, pad, and window heights with base and top constraints, offsets, and crop view.
Edit and organize sheets and title blocks in Revit, using labels linked to project parameters, add a logo and client details, and manage revision info across the project.
Select and edit floor types, set concrete and polished concrete materials with patterns and 100 mm thickness, then align boundaries to walls and finish edit mode.
Learn how to import families into a Revit project, locate them via Windows Explorer or the built-in browser, and place or edit them in a 3D view or floor plan.
Learn to set up 3D views in Revit by creating and renaming views, dragging them onto sheets, and navigating with cameras and saved orientations.
Learn how to set up section views in Revit, including creating a section cut in the view tab, placing it on sheets, and using masking regions with labels.
Learn how to export pdf from revit by selecting views, arranging sheet order, and setting page size and zoom before saving to the desktop.
If you would like to quickly get on your way to producing full sets of working drawings for your clients using Revit, this course is for you. I am an Australian Building designer so this course will be taught using metric dimensions and Australian building techniques.
I work full time in the industry so you can have the comfort that what you will learn in this course will directly translate into what will be required of you working in the residential design industry in Australia. Even if your not in Australia i am sure this course will still provide you with great benefit and teach you some valuable revit skills.
This will help you go from a complete beginner having never used Revit, to completing and printing your first full set of plans. The project being completed in this tutorial is a small Granny flat, keeping it nice and simple for your first set. If you have any questions along your journey or would like anything else added to this tutorial while you are working through it, I will do my best to get you the info you need as quickly as I can.
I am in the process of making further more advanced tutorials that will slot in nicely after this one, to help further progress your Revit skills.
I hope you enjoy this tutorial, and i am sure it will be very helpful.
thank you
