Design without compromise.

Definitive Design

From conception to construction documentation,
design projects within an intuitive environment.

Building information
modeling and Autodesk
Revit Architecture are
key components of our
larger strategy to
provide a much more
comprehensive and
integrated service to
our clients.

Built forBuilding Information Modeling (BIM),
Autodesk® Revit® Architecture software helps
you capture and analyze your most innovative
design concepts and maintain your vision through
documentation. The information-rich models that
the software provides support decision-making for
sustainable design, clash detection, construction
planning, and fabrication, while helping you work
collaboratively withengineers, contractors, and
owners. 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
Autodesk Revit Architecture software’s conceptual
design features provideeasy-to-use tools for freeform modeling and parametric design, enabling
you to analyze designs from the earliest stages of
development. 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 parametricframework around forms as
you 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.

Authoritative Decisions, Sooner
Autodesk Revit Architecture software supports
early analysis of your building forms so your team
can make better informeddecisions earlier in your
project. Use this capability to 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 todesign 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.
Autodesk Revit Architecture generates every
schedule, drawing sheet, 2D view, and 3D
view from a single foundational database,
automaticallycoordinating changes 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 are automatically
updated throughout the model, minimizing errors
and omissions.

Schedules
Schedules provide another view of thecomprehensive 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.
