Role of revit in the execution of building information modeling services

Role of Revit in the execution of Building Information Modeling Services Revit which was actually developed by Revit Technology Corporation (Massachusetts-based software developing firm) and later on purchased by Autodesk (again an American software manufacturer) is highly significant software for the design development of multidiscipline building trades. After this highly result oriented software product was acquired by Autodesk, it made various modifications in it and released its numerous versions in the market. Autodesk launched Revit structure in the year 2005, and this discipline of Revit is totally dedicated towards the empowerment of structural engineers and modelers when it comes to creating design for structural framework. Revit Structure is integrated with high end structural modeling tools, which are effectually optimized by modelers during structural modeling.

Right after the release of Revit structure, Autodesk launched Revit MEP in the year 2006. This particular Revit discipline was developed by Autodesk for the assistance of mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineers and modelers, when it comes to the execution of MEP modeling services. Revit MEP allowed modelers to create highly parametric 3D models for representing the design of mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems. On the other hand Revit architecture came into the picture after the release of Revit structure and Revit MEP. Revit architecture was earlier known as Revit Building, and this particular Revit flavor is developed by Autodesk for empowering architects in increasing their productivity.

If you consider the current building trends across Architectural Engineering and Construction industry, development of 3D models for architecture, structure and MEP before the actual construction have kind of become mandatory. This is because; 3D parametric model provides greater design clarity to design and construction professionals which is necessary for seamless construction. Revit contains highly unconventional tools such as Revit Family Editor and Project Environment which assist architects, engineers and modelers in developing high quality families and top-notch 3D models for architecture, structure and MEP. Since parametric models are developed by design and construction professionals for different building trades it becomes exceedingly simple for them to implement change in the models.

Another important thing is that if in case a change is made by a modeler in 3D model its entire design automatically gets updated. In this way high quality BIM modeling services are provided to clients with the support of different Revit flavors.
