Creating a complete Autodesk Revit® virtual model is the foundation of any successful project and in this course, we will delve deeper into the “building” portion of BIM (Building Information Modeling). These advanced techniques will take your model to the next level, allowing a more detailed and integrated project. In this one-day, hands-on course, you can focus on specific topics and learn tips and strategies on how to effectively leverage your model for a more complete and easy to manage set of construction documents. 

Modeling to the Next Level 
Using Profiles and Sweeps to add detail 
to your model, including integrating 
these objects into your wall types 
Adding articulation to your roof edge by 
way of Soffits, Fasciae, and Gutters 

Advanced Components 
General In-Place Component Family 
strategies and best practices for when to use and how to create them 
Alternative ways to use elements, including using tools such as Curtain Walls and Sweeps in “off label” applications 

Site Tools 
Learn how to generate Topography and edit to include various materials, building Pads and site elements such as Retaining Walls, Property Lines, Parking, and Railings 

Phasing and Design Options 
Learn about the ability of Revit to show 
various Phases of a project and how to display element correctly

One aspect of Building Information Modeling (BIM) that is widely implemented by both design and construction professionals is clash coordination. However, many efforts are hampered by misaligned models, imprecise clash reports, and the inability to review clash results efficiently. To ensure a successful outcome, thoughtful planning is needed to consider factors which span across the phases of a project's development, as well as across multiple BIM applications.

This one-day class is designed for those utilizing Navisworks® Manage to assemble Revit and AutoCAD based files into a single federated model for clash coordination.
