Syllabus

‍

Chapter 1 - Workspace & Tools

Lesson 1 – Workspace . Using a sample project, we get you introduced to the workspace & user interface of Autodesk Revit.

Lesson 2 – Learn the basics . This lesson brings you up to speed on the key tools & drawing techniques in Revit before we move onto the advanced stuff!

Lesson 3 – Tools . Revit has a ton of settings for each element of your model, this lesson goes into all settings & tools you can utilise to get the most from your BIM model to maximise your drawing & modelling efficiency.

Lesson 4 – Using the Ribbon . When selecting a tool, the ribbon at the top of your workspace changes to suit. This lesson demonstrates how to make the most of the ribbon & key things to look out for.

Lesson 5 – Levels, Views & Grids . A building is often set out to levels & grids, which is clearly explained in this video. Before you can place your drawing on a sheet you also need to understand view settings, which is covered in this lesson too.

Chapter 2 - Building Information Modelling

Lesson 6 – Importing Files . In this lesson we make a start on modelling the iconic Dokk1 Public Library building by importing its’ drawings.

Lesson 7 – Mass Modelling . The modelling begins by massing in the building’s architectural form to get us started.

Lesson 8 – Walls & Floors . Using the mass model from the previous lesson we explain how to add detail & information to the walls & floors.

Lesson 9 – Cores & Envelope . Modelling & drawing the lift & stair cores is demonstrated in this lesson, finishing off with adding BIM information to the envelope & developing curtain wall elements of the façade.

Lesson 10 – Internal Layouts . The internal spaces are developed in this lesson going deep on creating internal walls, steps, ramps, doors & much more!

Chapter 3 - Production Information

Lesson 11 – Views & Graphics . With the majority of the modelling complete we move into view & graphic settings so that you’re ready for extracting drawings from your Revit model.

Lesson 12 – Annotation . Hatching, labelling, dimensions, signage, revision clouds & pretty much every other form of annotation in Revit is covered here so you can accompany your drawings with any type of explanation you wish.

Lesson 13 – Detailing . Some people believe that Revit isn’t very good for producing details. This lesson puts that theory to bed by showing how you can extract detailed drawings & close ups from your BIM model.

Lesson 14 – Scheduling & Sheets . One of Revit’s massive strengths is it’s ability to create schedules in an instant, provided you’ve setup your model correctly! This lesson goes into creating schedules of your proposal & finishes off by showing you how to create & use sheets.

Lesson 15 – Collaboration & Work sharing . The final lesson of this course demonstrates how you can setup your Revit model as a central file so you can collaborate effectively with members of your own team, consultants & your clients.
