This course builds upon ASCENT’s Revit Architecture 2008 Fundamentals (formerly Level 1) and Revit Architecture 2008 Intermediate (formerly Level 2) textbooks. The Student Guide focuses on customizing and expanding tools that Revit® Architecture 2008 users work with on a daily basis including the Project Browser, schedules, and elevations. It includes advanced family processes for creating custom cornices and copings as well as stairs and railings. It exposes users to data exchange options with other design packages for energy analysis and massing studies and provides an in depth look at Worksets for effective project collaboration and data sharing within the Revit family of products. Students will also learn how to create and import site information into their models and add structural components.

This course is intended for students who have completed Revit Architecture Fundamentals and Intermediate training and are ready to explore more advanced features in the software. Knowledge of basic techniques is assumed such as creating walls, roofs, and other objects; copying and moving objects; creating and working with views.
