Key features of Autodesk Revit

The evolving features and multidiscipline toolsets in Revit can help all architecture, engineering, and construction professionals do their best work as individuals and in teams.

Parametric components

Place walls, doors and windows in an open, graphical, parameter-rich system for design and form making.

Interoperability

Revit imports, exports, and links with commonly used BIM and CAD file formats, including IFC, 3DM, SKP, OBJ, and STEP.

Developer tools, solutions, and combined ecosystem

Extend Revit functionality with Dynamo, API access, developer solutions and BIM content on the Autodesk App Store.

Twinmotion for Revit

Start Twinmotion directly from Revit. Sync design data and immerse yourself in the intuitive creator environment to bring your design to life as photorealistic stills, scenes, and animations.

Documentation

Create project sheets and add your drawings and schedules to them. Customise title blocks and manage revisions.

Worksharing

Save, sync, review and update work to a centrally shared model in the Revit project collaboration environment.

Annotate and detail

Communicate design intent effectively with tools for tagging, dimensioning and illustrating in 2D and 3D.

Multidisciplinary toolsets

Design and document projects across industries with Revit’s multidisciplinary tools, reducing rework time and promoting collaboration.

Revisions

Track changes and revisions made to your building model after sheets have been issued.

Schedules

Use tables to better capture, filter, sort, display and share project data.

Visibility settings and overrides

Control visibility by hiding, revealing and highlighting building elements. Use overrides to customise appearance.

Phasing

Define project phases (including demolition and renovation) and apply phase filters to views and schedules to show the project during various stages of work.

Multidiscipline toolsets in Autodesk Revit

Architectural design

Conceptual design tools

Articulate form in the Revit massing environment with free-form tools for profiling and massing. Refine geometry parametrically in the project environment.


Analysis with Insight

Use advanced simulation engines and building performance data integrated in Revit to assess daylighting, whole building energy, heating and cooling loads, and more.


Embodied carbon

Understand the carbon impact of your projects from concept design using the Revit add-on for Insight. Bring your Revit Energy Analytical Model into Insight to assess building performance trade-offs. Run carbon reduction scenarios and make informed design decisions to support low carbon approaches to design.


Architectural modelling

Add architectural elements to the building model, including walls, doors and windows, or define custom components and families to meet any modelling need and level of detail.


Point cloud tools

Use scanning tools to capture existing and as-built conditions and import into Revit as point clouds.


Visual styles

Explore, validate and communicate design decisions visually. Revit renders with high quality and precision through the Autodesk Raytracer rendering engine.


Multistorey stairs

Quickly create and modify multi-storey buildings by connecting stairs to the levels in your project.


NEW

Site design

Create toposolids and site elements with new modelling capabilities in Revit. Use snap to 3D points for underlay geometry, including linked DWG files, to ensure precise alignment.
