Revit Architecture is a Building Information Modeling (BIM) tool, which can be used by more than one person working on a new project. This is an important feature in collaboration within a project, between projects, and with other users, firms, and disciplines.

The objective of the Revit Architecture 2011 Collaboration Tools training guide is to enable students who have a basic knowledge of Revit to increase their productivity while working with other people on a team, either in the same firm or with other firms, and while working with Revit files or other CAD files.

With this Training Guide learn how to:

• Set up project phasing
• Create and display a variety of design options
• Use groups
• Link Revit files
• Import and export files, including exporting for energy analysis
• Understand, use, and set up worksets
• Optional: Use multi-discipline coordination

Prerequisites:

Students should be comfortable with the fundamentals of Revit as taught in the Revit Architecture 2011 Fundamentals course. Knowledge of basic techniques is assumed, such as creating walls, roofs, and other objects, copying and moving objects, and creating and working with views, etc.

The content in this guide covers Collaboration Tools. Other training guides include Conceptual Design and Visualization, BIM Management, and Site and Structural Design.
