Autodesk Revit
Architecture
Purpose-built software for building information modeling
(BIM).
Autodesk® Revit® Architecture software helps architects and designers work naturally,
design freely, and deliver projects efficiently. Purpose-built for building information
modeling (BIM), Revit Architecture helps you explore design concepts and forms, and
better maintain your design data through documentation and construction. With parametric
change technology, any change you make is automatically updated throughout your
project, keeping your design and documentation coordinated and more reliable. Share
essential BIM data with your partners for a more collaborative, integrated building design
process. Support a more efficient design process that enables improved sustainable
design analysis, clash detection, construction planning, and material fabrication.
Purpose-built for building information modeling (BIM), Autodesk Revit Architecture provides superior support for sustainable design, clash detection, construction planning, and fabrication, while helping you work collaboratively with engineers, contractors, and owners. Any and all design changes along the way are automatically updated throughout your evolving design and documentation, making for more coordinated processes and reliable documentation.
Complete Projects, One Environment
New and innovative Autodesk Revit Architecture
conceptual design features provide easy-to-use
tools for free-form modeling and parametric design,
and the ability to support the earliest design
analyses. Sketch freely, create 3D forms quickly,
and manipulate forms interactively. Prepare your
models for fabrication and construction with built-in
tools for conception and clarification of complex
forms. Autodesk Revit Architecture automatically
builds a parametric framework around your most complex forms as you continue to design, offering you greater levels of creative control, accuracy, and flexibility. Take your design from concept model all
the way to construction documents, all within one intuitive environment and user interface. |

Authoritative Decisions, Sooner
Autodesk Revit Architecture software supports early analysis of your building forms so your team can make better informed decisions at the earliest stages of your project. Use this capability to comprehensively clarify areas and volumes, perform daylighting and energy analysis, and gain insight into manufacturing viability and early construction material takeoffs.
Functional Forms
The Building Maker feature in Autodesk Revit Architecture helps you transform your conceptual
forms into fully functional building designs.
Select and add faces to design walls, roofs,
floors, and curtain systems. Extract important
building information, including gross area per
floor. Bring conceptual massing concepts from
applications such as AutoCAD® software and
Autodesk® Maya® software, as well as AutoDesSys form•Z®, McNeel Rhinoceros®, Google™ SketchUp®, or other ACIS®- or NURBS-based applications into Autodesk Revit Architecture as mass objects and begin schematic design. |
Coordinated, Accurate Design Information
Autodesk Revit Architecture software is built to work the way architects and designers think about
buildings. Work naturally, design freely, and deliver
efficiently within one environment.
Autodesk Revit Architecture provides and presents every schedule, drawing sheet, 2D view, and 3D view from a single foundational database, automatically coordinating changes across all facets and presentations as your project develops and evolves.

Bidirectional Associativity
A change anywhere is a change everywhere. In Autodesk Revit Architecture, all model information is stored in a single, coordinated database. Revisions and alterations to information is automatically updated throughout the model, and significantly reducing errors and omissions.
Schedules
Schedules provide another view of the comprehensive Autodesk Revit Architecture model. Changes to a schedule view are automatically reflected in all other views. Functionality includes associative split-schedule sections and selectable design elements via schedule views, formulas, and filtering.
Detailing
The extensive detail library and detailing tools provided within Autodesk Revit Architecture enable extensive presorting, easing alignment with the CSI format. Detail libraries can be created, shared, and tailored to accommodate your office standards.
Material Takeoff
Calculate detailed material quantities with Material Takeoff. Ideal for use on sustainable design projects and for precise verification of material quantities in cost estimates, Material Takeoff significantly smooths the material quantity tracking process. As projects evolve, the Autodesk Revit Architecture parametric change engine helps ensure material takeoffs are always up to date. |

Parametric Components
A change anywhere is a change everywhere. Parametric components, also known as families, are the basis for all building components designed in Autodesk Revit Architecture. These components offer an open, graphical system for design thinking and form making, while providing the opportunity to adjust and express design intent at increasingly detailed levels. Use parametric components for the most elaborate assemblies, such as cabinetry and equipment, as well as for the most elementary building parts, such as walls and columns. Best of all, no programming language or coding is necessary or required.
Interference Check
Use interference checking to scan your model for
collisions between elements.
Intuitive User Interface
Autodesk Revit Architecture features a streamlined user interface. Find your favorite tools and commands faster, locate lesser-used tools more efficiently, and discover relevant new features more easily. The result is less time searching through menus and toolbars, and more time getting your work done.

Exceed and Succeed
Streamline individual and team processes. Deliver more complete documents and higher-quality designs.
Most importantly, win more business with clear and complete presentations.
Design Visualization
Create and capture fully photoreal design ideas and contextual environments to experience your project, even before it is built. Integrated mental ray® rendering software is easy to use and delivers high-quality output, faster render times, and a superior design presentation.
Interoperability
Interoperability enhancements enable you to work more efficiently with members of your extended project team. Now you can export your building model or site, complete with critical metadata, to AutoCAD® Civil 3D® software. You can also import accurate, data-rich models from Autodesk® Inventor® software, efficiently speeding time to fabrication. |

New native 64-bit support
enhances Autodesk Revit Architecture software’s ability to handle large projects and helps improve performance and stability for memory-intensive tasks such as rendering, printing, model upgrading, and file importing and exporting.
Support Sustainable Design
Autodesk Revit Architecture supports sustainable
design processes from the earliest stages. Export
building information, including materials and room
volumes, to green building extensible markup
language (gbXML). Perform energy analysis using
Autodesk® Green Building Studio® web-based services, and study building performance employing Autodesk® Ecotect™ software. Use Autodesk® 3ds Max® Design software to evaluate indoor environmental quality in support of LEED® 8.1 certification.
