What is the course about?
This course will introduce viewers to Revit, the Building Information Modelling software widely used by Architects and Engineers to design, document and deliver accurate Architectural outcomes. We’ll cover the full suite of Architectural modelling tools required to accurately model buildings by developing a small architectural folly. We’ll also cover fundamental concepts unique to Revit’s model management and interface which are critical in developing your skills beyond a beginner understanding
