Autodesk(R) Revit(R) 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 Autodesk(R) Revit(R) 2019: Collaboration Tools learning guide is to enable users, who have a basic knowledge of Autodesk Revit, to increase their productivity while working with other people on a team, either in the same firm or other firms as well as with other disciplines. It also covers linking Autodesk Revit files and linking or importing other CAD files. Practices are available for each of the primary disciplines covered by Autodesk Revit: Architecture, MEP, and Structure.

Topics Covered

• Set up project phasing
• Create and display a variety of design options
• Use groups
• Link Autodesk Revit files
• Use multi-discipline coordination including Copy/Monitor and Coordination Review
• Import and export vector and raster files including exporting Autodesk Revit models for energy analysis
• Understand, use, and setup worksets

Prerequisites

• Access to the 2019 version of the software. The practices and files included with this guide might not be compatible with prior versions.
• You should be comfortable with the fundamentals of Autodesk Revit as taught in Autodesk(R) Revit(R) 2019: Fundamentals for Architecture, Autodesk(R) Revit(R) 2019: Fundamentals for MEP, or Autodesk(R) Revit(R) 2019: Fundamentals for Structure. Knowledge of basic techniques is assumed, such as creating typical elements as well as copying and moving objects, creating and working with views, etc.
