Class Summary

With the recent introduction of new Revit Structure tools, such as the Parts and Assemblies and Structural Fabric Area tools, the enhancements to the Reinforcement tools, and the introduction of AutoCAD® Structural Detailing, many structural engineers and designers are wondering when and where it is appropriate to model this much detail in their Revit Structure projects.

In this class, we will review these tools and show when and how to use them, whether it be for design, detailing and fabrication, right through to construction.
