Autodesk Revit Architecture 2010 in Practice

AutoDesk Revit is Building Information Modeling (BIM) software for Microsoft? Windows? that allows the user to design buildings with modeling and drafting elements. BIM is a new Computer- Aided Design (CAD) paradigm that allows for intelligent, 3D, and object-based design. Revit 2010 in Practice provides basic, step-by-step instructions for getting started and using the Revit software. Unlike many competitors, this book covers only the basics to illustrate the myriad 2D/3D drawing and editing functions for this popular yet complex application. Use the DVD to set up all the drawing lessons in the text, see third-party software applications and all of the book?s figures in color, and draw with a trial version of Revit 2010.
