Description:

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is no longer an emerging idea. It has solidified itself as the future of delivering projects in the AEC industry and is being requested by an increasing number of clients. Autodesk Revit is the most common BIM authoring tool in North America. As more of the industry moves towards working with BIM, it will be vital to not only have advanced skills using Revit but also know how to best leverage it on projects. In this intermediate course, you will continue to develop and advance your skills in Revit, providing you with the ability to confidently deliver project documentation.

Course Outline:

• Develop a production set
