What you'll learn
Learn through a combination of presentation slides, screenshots, and demonstration videos over four modules.
Navigate the Revit interface from an architecture perspective, and in relation to other drawing software.
Understand key Revit terminology relevant to project setup, and setting up a new project.
Confidently build 3D models, using parameters correctly to set out grids and levels, creating walls, floors, and roofs, and inserting doors and windows.
Generate and manage different view types, including floor plans, sections, elevations, and 3D views.
Set up and configure sheets, including selecting and applying title blocks, and adding key annotations, dimensions, and other documentation elements.
Prepare your project for printing as a complete set of documentation.
There are many more demonstration videos embedded as links in the Lesson PDFs - which are not listed in the Course content below.

Requirements
Basic architecture knowledge. This course is suitable for architecture students and experienced practititioners alike, who are interested in learning to create drawings in 3D rather than 2D.
No prior Revit experience needed. This is a beginner's course which will take you through the basics in an intuitive way, to set you up for future learning.
Your computer needs to have Revit installed (recommended version 2023 onwards), and at least 8GB of RAM (16GB recommended), a multi-core processor, and a dedicated graphics card.
Autodesk offers a free 30-day trial of Revit, which you can download and use to complete the course.

Description
Important: Download the PDF for each lecture by clicking on the Resources buttons on your Course Content window. As you go through the slides, click on the red text for links to demonstration videos of how to do certain actions. There are MANY (approximately 40) more short demonstration videos included as links in the PDFs compared to the 36 minutes of (uploaded) videos listed in the Overview!

This is a beginners course designed to teach you the basics of using Revit without overcomplicating it. The goal is to teach you just enough now in an intuitive manner, without getting overwhelmed. Use your newfound familiarity with the software to lay a firm foundation for further learning later on.

Learn how to confidently create and manage basic architectural models in Revit including setting up levels and grids, modelling key architectural elements, and presenting your work on sheets ready for printing. Gain the foundational skills needed to participate effectively in a professional architectural environment and continue your learning journey in drawing in 3D.

Taught over four modules with four or five lessons each, you’ll first get familiar with the interface, before starting to build a model in 3D, using CAD reference plans as a template to aid your learning. Then you'll extract information from the 3D model into different views, and present those views onto sheets, also known as your paper space. You can then add other information such as annotations and dimensions onto these sheets, and eventually print and share them with your client, design team, or contractor.
