• Navigation and Setting a Project Template In this session we’ll discuss the Navigation through the Revit A and explore various ways to maintain the project views and levels.

After that we’ll discuss setting Template to start a simple project and then progress through schematic Design, construction documentation, and design visualization.

• Basic Modelling Tools (walls, Floor, Roof, Stairs) In this session we’ll discuss the Basic modelling tools, and then we’ll continue the Kitchen project.

• Adding Components and Family Editing.

In this session we’ll continue working in our project and adding components and other types of families needed to complete and finalize the project.

• Materials and Rendering In this session we’ll discuss the material editor and apply the materials to our model.

• Presentation and detailing In this session we’ll discuss section and plan detailing and presentation.

• Printing and Documentation In this session we’ll continue setting sheets and Title-blocks for printing and exporting to Auto-Cad.

• Add-ins and additional Tools (Analysis Tools, Site Creation,..).

In this session we’ll discuss various add-ins and tools that have various function and applications.

• Starting New project (Villa Savoye) In this session we’ll start practice and apply what we learned through the last sessions, to generate complete drawings and model for Villa Savoye.

• Continue Working on (Villa Savoye) In this session we’ll continue working in our project and preparing the model for exporting to Lumion.

• Exporting to Lumion In this session we’ll have an introduction to Lumion software, then we’ll export the model and progress through materializing and setting the environment for Render.
