• Covers all three disciplines of Autodesk Revit in one book • Guides you through creating a two story law office while teaching you the BIM process • Uses step-by-step tutorials and starts at an introductory level • Includes access to extensive video instruction and bonus chapters • Bonus chapters include an introduction to lighting design, multi-story stairs, building performance analysis and much more Design Integration Using Autodesk Revit 2025 is designed to provide you with a well-rounded knowledge of Autodesk Revit tools and techniques. All three disciplines of the Revit platform are introduced in this textbook. This approach gives you a broad overview of the Building Information Modeling (BIM) process. The topics cover the design integration of most of the building disciplines: Architectural, Interior Design, Structural, Mechanical, Plumbing and Electrical. Civil is not covered, but adding topography to your model is. Each book also includes access to video tutorials designed to further help you master Autodesk Revit. Throughout the book you develop a two story law office. The drawings start with the floor plans and develop all the way to photo-realistic renderings similar to the one on the cover of this book. Along the way the building’s structure, ductwork, plumbing and electrical (power and lighting) are modeled. By the end, you will have a thorough knowledge of many of the Revit basics needed to be productive in a classroom or office environment. Even if you will only be working with one component of Revit in your chosen profession, this book will give you important knowledge on how the other disciplines will be doing their work and valuable insight into the overall process. The first four chapters cover many of the Revit basics needed to successfully and efficiently work with the software. Once the fundamentals are covered, the remaining chapters walk you through a building project which is started from scratch so nothing is taken for granted by you or the author. About Bonus Material Each book comes with access to the following: • Extensive video instruction shows you how to use all the major tools in Autodesk Revit. • Bonus chapters include an introduction to Revit Families, Rooms and Spaces, Lighting Design, Autodesk Showcase and much more. • A bonus draft copy of the Roof Study Workbook which includes information on controlling the top surface of the roof in Revit As an instructor, the author understands that many students in a classroom setting have varying degrees of computer experience. To help level the playing field an entire bonus chapter is devoted to an introduction to computers. Much of the basics are covered, from computer hardware and software to file management procedures: including step-by-step instructions on using a flash drive. About the Videos Access to 86 videos, almost seven hours of content, are also included with your purchase of this book. These videos break down each topic into several short videos so that you can easily navigate to a specific aspect of a tool or feature in Autodesk Revit. This makes the videos both a powerful learning tool and convenient video reference. The videos make it easy to see the menu selections and will make learning Revit straightforward and simple. It's like having the author by your side showing you exactly how to use all the major tools in Autodesk Revit.

The Autodesk(R) Advance Steel 2025 software is a powerful 3D modeling application that streamlines the fabrication process through the use of a 3D model, which is used to create fabrication drawings, Bill of Materials (BOM) lists, and files for Numerical Control (NC) machines. Since structural steel projects are extremely complex, the Autodesk Advance Steel software is also complex. The objective of the Autodesk(R) Advance Steel 2025: Fundamentals guide is to enable you to create full 3D project models at a high level of detail and set them up in fabrication drawings. This guide focuses on the basic tools that the majority of users need. You begin by learning the user interface, basic 3D viewing tools, and the standard AutoCAD(R) tools that are routinely used. Specific Autodesk Advance Steel objects, including structural columns, beams, bracing, plates, bolts, anchors, welds, and additional 3D objects are also covered. You will also learn about the powerful model verification tools. Finally, you will learn to edit and generate all of the required documentation files that enable your design to accurately and effectively communicate the final design. Topics Covered Understand the process of 3D modeling and extracting 2D documentation from a model in the Autodesk Advance Steel software. Navigate the Autodesk Advance Steel interface. Work with 3D viewing tools. Review helpful AutoCAD tools. Work with the User Coordinate System (UCS). Use the Autodesk Advance Steel Modify commands. Add structural grids. Create levels. Model columns and beams and add bracing. Create connections using the Connection Vault. Create special parts. Verify models using Clash Checking tools. Modify a drawing prototype. Work within the Drawing Style Manager. Create custom connections. Create plates and add bolts, anchors, and welds. Add grating and cladding. Model ladders, stairs, and railings. Create concrete objects such as footings. Number objects. Extract 2D drawings from the model using Drawing Styles and Drawing Processes. Review and modify 2D drawings using the Document Manager. Modify 2D details with parametric dimensions. Revise models and drawings. Create BOM lists. Export data to .NC and .DXF files. Prerequisites Access to the 2025.0 version of the software, to ensure compatibility with this guide. Future software updates that are released by Autodesk may include changes that are not reflected in this guide. The practices and files included with this guide might not be compatible with prior versions (e.g., 2024).
