THE AUBIN ACADEMY MASTER SERIES: REVIT(R) ARCHITECTURE 2013 AND BEYOND combines a straightforward, reader-friendly style with project-focused exercises that encourage learning by doing. Students will gain practical, firsthand experience with the powerful, popular Revit Building Information Modeling (BIM) software, which leading architects and engineers are using to move beyond traditional Computer-Assisted Design (CAD) to manage complex projects, foster collaboration, and boost productivity. In addition to managing extensive data related to project phasing, construction requirements, internal systems, and ongoing maintenance, Revit supports sophisticated modeling to predict building performance and energy use, enabling teams to analyze and optimize performance for clients increasingly focused on sustainability.
