Revit Architecture is the international standard software from Autodesk USA, developers of the hugely popular AutoCAD, for conceptualizing and developing architectural designs.
It is part of a series called Revit Building System, others being, Revit Structure and Revit MEP.
The series provides a total software solution for building construction that completely covers architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing and air-conditioning aspects.
Revit Architecture is built on the concept of BIM (Building Information Model). Conventional methods of drafting is based on drawing each schematic view like plans, elevations, sections and so on separately. |

This is quite tedious, time consuming and leads to inter-document errors. Also, the elements thus drawn do not have any information like mass, area, material and so on.
In Revit Architecture, the building model is created in a single integrated environment. As the plans are drawn, elevations and 3D views are automatically generated. Creation of detailed working drawings for construction is just a matter of the standard Windows drag and drop the views on to the electronic drawing sheet.
In Revit Architecture, all the building components created like walls, doors, windows and so on have built-in intelligence. For example, a wall knows its structure, surface finishes, volume, surface area, running length and all such properties associated with it. |

This facilitates automatic generation of schedules and quantities, a generally tedious and error prone activity when manually done.
Revit Architecture is also parametric and constraint based. Because of this, modifications are very easily carried out.
Reputed Architects, construction companies and BPOs in Chennai like ECC, C. R. Narayana Rao & so many make extensive use of Revit Architecture to increase their productivity thus greatly reduce the design and documentation time.
USAM Systems in Chennai are Autodesk authorized training center and provide comprehensive training for Revit Architecture. Please feel free to have a demo @ USAM - contact |
