The objective of the Revit Architecture 1 – Fundamentals course is to enable you to create a full 3D architectural project model including walls, doors, windows, components, floors, ceilings, roofs, stairs, the basic tools that the majority of architectural users need.

The objective of the Revit Architecture 2 – Productivity course is to enable students who have mastered the topics of the RA101: Revit Architecture 1 – Fundamentals course to expand their knowledge in the areas of phasing, design options, groups, massing studies, space planning, visualization, and rendering.

A key component in managing the BIM process is to establish a company foundation for different types of projects by creating standard templates and custom family elements. Having this in place makes the process of any new project flow smoothly and efficiently.

Revit is a Building Information Modeling (BIM) tool, which can be used by more than one person working on a new project. This is an important feature in collaboration within a project, between projects, and with other users, firms, and disciplines.

As architects and designers start a project, they frequently think about the overall massing of a building or the area of the footprint. The Revit software, using its powerful Building Information Modeling (BIM) engine, includes tools for creating mass elements that can be modified into many shapes.

The main purpose of the architectural tools in Revit are to design buildings: walls, doors, floors, roofs, and stairs. However, architects also frequently need to add site and structural information.
