Revit Certification Training in Architecture (Voucher Included)

This Revit Certification in Architecture course is designed to teach fundamental and intermediate concepts of BIM and prepare you for the Revit Architecture Certification Exam. Learn how information is interrelated throughout the Revit model and how to design 3D models that simultaneously document the project and generate 2D architectural drawings.

This Revit certification course provides real-world insights into preparing construction documents for commercial, medical, and biotech projects. You will prepare for a range of job opportunities in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry. Through hands-on, project-based learning, you will gain valuable experience and develop practical skills that you can apply in your future career.

This class is designed for architects, interior designers, engineers, and others involved in the construction industry looking to hone their detailing skills in Revit. Upon completion of the program, you will be well-equipped to pursue a variety of job opportunities in the AEC industry, including architectural drafting, BIM coordination, project management, and more. You will also be ready to sit for the Autodesk Revit Architecture User certification exam. You will receive a voucher for the exam.

What you will learn

• Discover how information is interrelated throughout the Revit (BIM) model
• Design 3D building models that simultaneously document the project in schedules and in 2D construction documents
• Acquire more advanced methods to document a project, such as scheduling building components, using the family editor to create 2D and 3D components, refining graphics, and creating an abbreviated set of construction documents
• Model an existing single story commercial building (importing AutoCAD drawings as a base) and also create a site model
• Create a model for a significant two-story expansion to your first building model
• Develop a progress 30/60/90/100 percent deliverable set of Architectural Construction Documents for the commercial building and site which was created in BIM 301
• Create plans, elevations and sections of the project and will also keynote elements of the model and develop detail drawings and schedules
• Develop a series of architectural details for the commercial building, which are modeled in BIM 301 and BIM 302 – BIM Construction Documents

How you will benefit

• Gain a foundational understanding of the Revit (BIM) model and learn advanced methods to document a project
• Get hands-on learning using the Revit Architecture tools by modeling an existing commercial building and create a site model.
• Develop your detailing skills by creating a model for a significant two-story expansion to the first building model, which is typical of projects currently being handled by AEC teams who use Revit in their offices
• By developing a progress 30/60/90/100 percent deliverable set of architectural construction documents, you will develop the necessary detailing skills to apply in real-world projects
