AutoCAD Training Overview
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is an approach to the entire building life cycle. Autodesk® Revit® Architecture, Autodesk® Revit® MEP, and Autodesk® Revit® Structure are powerful BIM program s that support the ability to coordinate, update, and share design data with team members throughout the design, construction, and management phases of a building’s life. A key component in managing the BIM process is to establish a company foundation for different types of projects by creating standard templates and custom elements. Having this in place makes the process of any new project flow smoothly and efficiently.
The objective of the Autodesk Revit 2012 BIM Management for Architecture, Structure, and MEP training guide is to enable students who have worked with the software to expand their knowledge in setting up office standards with templates that include annotation styles, preset views, sheets, and schedules, as well as creating custom element types and families. The class can be taught in any one or a mix of all of the software programs using practices specific to each discipline.
AutoCAD Training Objectives
Students will learn how to:
- Create custom templates with annotation styles, title blocks, and custom element types.
- Create schedules, including material takeoff schedules with formulas.
- Create custom wall, roof, and floor types.
- Set up a family file.
- Create family geometry.
- Create family types.
- Create specific families, including, in-place families, profiles, annotation, and shared parameters.
Prerequisites
Students should be comfortable with the fundamentals of Autodesk® Revit® as taught in the Autodesk Revit Architecture 2012 Fundamentals, the Autodesk Revit Structure 2012 Fundamentals, or the Autodesk Revit MEP 2012 Fundamentals course. Knowledge of basic techniques is assumed, such as creating standard element, copying and moving elements, and creating and working with views, etc. Information on Collaboration Tools, Conceptual Design, and Site and Structural Design are covered in additional courses.
