Better Coordination and Quality
With Revit Architecture software’s parametric
change management, you can coordinate your
entire project eortlessly. Enhance client communi-
cations and accelerate decision making. Get timely
feedback on project design, scope, schedule, and
budget. And do it all while minimizing the costly
mistakes and wasted eort that come from coordi-
nating documents by any other means.
Schedules
Schedules are just another view of the Revit
Architecture model. Changes to a schedule view are
automatically reflected in every other view and vice
versa. Functionality includes associative split-sched-
ules and the ability to schedule elements based
on conditional filtering. Enhancements include the
scheduling of wall sweeps and additional linked file
information.
Interference Check
Use interference checking to scan your model for
collisions between elements.
Site Terrain Surfaces
Provide site context for the building, and create
all contour lines and hatch patterns in sections
and elevations, saving time and minimizing tedious
hatching chores.
Detailing
Take advantage of the extensive detail library and
detailing tools provided with Revit Architecture
2008. Presorted to align with the CSI format, detail
libraries can be tailored to accommodate your oce
standards. Create and share your own detail library.
Coordination Monitor
Coordinate changes across models. Work smarter
with engineers from other disciplines. Monitor
changes to grids, levels, columns, walls, and slabs.
Approve or reject changes and attach comments
for review.
Material Takeo
Calculate detailed material quantities with the
Material Takeo tool. Appropriate for applications
such as sustainable design, and checking material
quantities in cost estimates, Material Takeo simpli-
fies the tracking of material quantities. As a project
evolves, the Revit Architecture parametric change
engine helps to ensure that material takeos are
always up-to-date.
Ever feel like you spend too much time updating
documents and ensuring accuracy? Not any more.
Dependent Views
Addressing the needs of firms managing large
projects, dependent views provide a robust
mechanism for segmenting projects across multiple
sheet views. Coordination across sheets is
automatically maintained between parent and
dependent views, helping to ensure model fidelity.
All building information, including annotations,
is kept accurate and up-to-date throughout the
design process.
Masking Regions
Masking regions provide an easy method for
managing the visual display of Revit family informa-
tion. Delivering added benefit over filled regions,
masking regions help to maintain visual accuracy
when translating between Revit Architecture and
AutoCAD-based applications.
File Linking
Oering more flexibility and easier management of
linked model information, Revit links are organized
within the project browser to provide new drag-and-
drop management, together with quick and easy
access to the Link Manager. Project visibility is
significantly improved for the project team by
displaying nested links within host files. The func-
tionality of color fills is also enhanced as fills within
host files are applied in linked views.
