So it's very unlike working on a project with, say, AutoCAD, where all you've got most of the time is flat 2D drawings. And you can see there's lots of information there in the Project Browser and this is where Revit comes to the fore with your BIM workflow because not only have you got a view like the 3D view, which is the default 3D view I hastened to add in the Revit project, but you've also got Structural Plans, Floor Plans, Ceiling Plans, and all of these views are part of your Revit model.
So, in our Revit project at the moment, I've got the Properties palette open and you can see here that I've got the Project Browser open. But, if you want to download it and follow along, that's perfectly fine with me. It's more a demonstration of the information you can find within your Revit model. I'm not going to be doing much with the Revit project. Now you can download that from the library to follow along with this particular video. And you can see there that we've got a Revit file open which is 1031 SE Madison_Metric_2020.rvt.
So you'll notice I've got Revit up on the screen. Now the first thing we're going to look at is how Revit can be used as an effective BIM modeling and drafting tool. We're starting a new chapter now in the course and we're going to have a little look at BIM, Building Information Modeling, being used in industry.
