The main purpose of the Autodesk(R) Revit(R) Architecture software is to design buildings: walls, doors, floors, roofs, and stairs. However, architects also frequently need to add site and structural information. The Autodesk(R) Revit(R) 2020 Architecture: Site and Structural Design guide covers the elements and tools that are used to create topographic surfaces for site work and add structural elements.
Site Topics Covered
- Create topographic surfaces.
- Add property lines and building pads.
- Modify toposurfaces with subregions, splitting surfaces and grading the regions.
- Annotate site plans and add site components.
- Work with Shared Coordinates.
Structural Topics Covered
- Create structural grids and add columns.
- Add foundation walls and footings.
- Add beams and beam systems.
- Create framing elevations and add braces.
Prerequisites
