Demonstrate building a 40 cm thick, two-meter wall by sketching a single profile, mirroring it, splitting regions to create a middle glass wall, and assigning material with reveals.

Learn how Revit's base points—the internal origin, the project base point, and the survey point—define coordinates and how to align them when importing CAD or linking files using shared coordinates.

Coordinate the base point, server point, and internal point across linked Revit projects using coordinates tools such as acquire coordinates, publish coordinates, and shared coordinates, and align with grid lines.

Learn how project north and true north work in Revit, and how to rotate and align the project for sheet placement using project north, true north, and the position tools.
