About this course
The Revit Structure Advanced course introduces experienced users of the Autodesk® Revit® Structure software to more advanced techniques and concepts beyond what was learned in the Autodesk Revit Structure Essentials training guide. It is intended to broaden your knowledge and maximize your use of the Autodesk Revit Structure software. This course details information and practical exercises regarding creating families (tapered columns, precast slabs, tapered moment frame, and trusses), preparing the Autodesk Revit software analytical model for analysis and project sharing.
What you'll learn
- Concepts and Techniques for working with Families
- Project Team Collaboration working with Worksets
- View Composition
- Creating Structural Families
- Creating Trusses
- Setting Up Analytical Views
- Creating and Placing Loads for Structural Analysis
