Autodesk Revit is building design software works the way architects and designers think, so you can develop higher-quality, more accurate architectural designs. Built for Building Information Modeling (BIM), Revit 2021 helps you capture and analyze concepts and maintain your vision through design, documentation, and construction. Make more informed decisions with information-rich models to support sustainable design, construction planning, and fabrication. Automatic updates keep your designs and documentation coordinated and more reliable.
Autodesk Revit software offers easy-to-use conceptual design tools that support your creative flow. Sketch freely, create free-form models more easily, and manipulate forms interactively. You can define forms and geometry as real building components for a smoother transition to design development and documentation. As you design, the program Architecture automatically builds a parametric framework around your forms, offering greater levels of control, accuracy, and flexibility. Take your design from the concept model all the way to construction documents all in one environment.
The Building Maker feature provides a more seamless way to turn conceptual forms into functional designs. Select faces to generate walls, roofs, floors, and curtain systems. Use tools to extract important information about your building such as surface area or volume per floor. Conceptual forms may be created natively in the app or imported from applications such as AutoCAD, Rhino, SketchUp, or other ACIS- or NURBS-based applications into the software as mass objects.
Revit for Windows PC architecture interoperability features enables you to work more efficiently with members of your extended project team. You can export your building model or site, complete with critical metadata, to AutoCAD Civil 3D civil engineering software and you can import accurate models from Autodesk Inventor 3D mechanical design software.
Autodesk BIM software includes features for architectural design, MEP and structural engineering, and construction. The app supports a multidiscipline, collaborative design process.
Tools for architects
Take an idea from conceptual design to construction documentation within a single software environment. Optimize building performance and create stunning visualizations.
Tools for structural engineers
Use tools specific to structural design to create intelligent structure models in coordination with other building components. Evaluate how well they conform to building and safety regulations.
Tools for MEP engineers
Design MEP building systems with greater accuracy and in better coordination with architectural and structural components, using the coordinated and consistent information in the intelligent model.
Tools for construction professionals
Evaluate constructability and design intent before construction begins. Gain a better understanding of the means, methods, and materials, and how they all come together.
Why Revit?
Design
Model building components, analyze and simulate systems and structures, and iterate designs. Generate documentation from the tool models.
Interoperability
Work with members of an extended project team. The app imports, exports, and links your data with commonly used formats, including IFC, DWG™, and DGN.
Collaborate
Multiple project contributors can access centrally shared models. This results in better coordination, which helps reduce clashes and rework.
Visualize
Communicate design intent more effectively to project owners and team members by using models to create high-impact 3D visuals.
