Description:

Introduces Autodesk's Revit for architecture and construction. Students learn how to create a Building Information Model (BIM) of a structure. Three dimensional renderings and animated walk-throughs, along with the use of natural and artificial lighting within a model, provides a relationship to other architectural concepts. Other specific skills such as Concept Massing, creating partition types, and database importing/exporting to other software programs are covered. With emphasis on the Building Life Cycle, students are also introduced to the role BIMs can play in both architectural practice and in the overall construction process. A course fee is required.
