Revit Product details
Multidiscipline toolsets in Autodesk Revit
Analytically driven modelling
Use accurate and versatile structural analysis tools to assess and adapt design intent as your model develops. Automate analytical representation, run multiple analyses from a single intelligent model, schedule data for documentation and assure quality control of structural design. New in Revit 2023.
Reinforcement detailing
Create 3D reinforcement designs for cast-in-place and precast concrete structures. Produce reinforcement shop drawing documentation with rebar schedules.
Structural steel modelling
Model connexions with a higher level of detail using a variety of parametric steel connections in Revit or by creating your own custom steel connexions.
Bidirectional linking with analysis
Integrate analysis results into the BIM process and work in an iterative design workflow.
Dynamo for structural engineering
Computational design gives structural engineers, designers and detailers tools to build structures with minimal energy and make their own design tools.
Linking with steel fabrication
Interoperability between Revit and Advance Steel helps provide a seamless BIM workflow from steel design to fabrication.
Electrical preliminary load analysis
Electrical engineers and designers working in Revit can now use an architect’s PDF, DWG or Revit geometry to perform preliminary load calculations earlier in the design process – before modelling electrical equipment.
MEP Systems Analysis
Systems Analysis optimises your HVAC systems design and modelling, letting you make data-driven design decisions.
HVAC design and documentation
Design complex duct and pipe systems to express intent, and model duct and pipe systems with mechanical design content.
Electrical design and documentation
Design, model and document electrical systems. Keep track of electrical loads throughout the distribution system.
Plumbing design and documentation
Create sanitary plumbing systems with sloped piping and layout piping systems to design and document intent.
MEP fabrication detailing
Create fabrication-ready models in Revit. You can model and coordinate MEP LOD 400 components.
Insight integration
Insight lets you optimise building performance with centralised access to performance data and advanced analysis engines.
Fabrication service conversion
Use the Design to Fabrication tool to convert design-level model elements to construction level-of-detail elements.
Fabrication documentation
Document model layout more effectively. Document, schedule and tag fabrication elements.
Construction modelling
Derive construction insight from design models. Split and manipulate wall layers and concrete pours and prepare shop drawings for fabrication.
Informed design for Revit
Customise and add accurate, manufacturable building product templates into your designs for immediate validation and faster design cycles. Reuse the same pre-validated products throughout your design project (or several projects) to save time and increase capacity for your team.
Navisworks interoperability
Open a Navisworks coordination model directly in Revit to coordinate your design with the work of teams that use different software.
Import/export 2D sheets
Bring AutoCAD files in or out of Revit and prepare sheet sets for export to fabricators, subcontractors or other project stakeholders in the format they need.
Constructability details
Augment design-intent models with the detail necessary to meet the requirements of construction teams.
Issue tracking
Track your constructability issues across design with the Revit Issues Add-in as your team makes changes.
Mobile app
Sync your data to the Autodesk Construction Cloud mobile app to ensure that members of your team can complete tasks from anywhere on the construction site, with access to project data even when offline.
Revit API
Tap into the core functionality of Autodesk Revit, enabling you to automate tasks, extend features and create custom workflows to streamline your building design and modelling processes.
