Improve Efficiency and Accuracy Revit Structure software offers concurrent modelling for structural design, analysis and fully co-ordinated documentation. I can foresee that Autodesk Revit Structure will enable us to offer our international clients better value. For example, we used the solution to test the viability of building a residential block on top of an existing road tunnel. It enabled us to cut down analysis time to a fraction of what it normally would have taken – from weeks to days.
Enhance Structural Modelling Capabilities Revit Structure focuses on the modelling of multimaterial building structures, from regular to complex shapes, such as curved and sloped roofs and floors. Whether you design steel, cast-in-place concrete, precast concrete, masonry, or wood structures, standard modelling objects include walls, beams, columns, beam systems, slabs and foundations. Additional structural objects can be created as parametric components.
Deliver Comprehensive Construction Documents Revit Structure has a full set of dedicated tools to deliver accurate structural drawings and reduce errors due to manual co-ordination of design changes. Material-specific tools help ensure that construction documents conform to industry and office standards. For steel, features such as beam coping and automatic symbolic cutbacks, as well as an extensive library of detail components are available.
Symbols The library of structural symbols includes moment frame connections for beams, plate and splices for columns, brace representation in plan view, welded symbols and more. Legends Create symbol and annotation legends for a project. Or use a legend view to place the same view on many sheets. Filters The filter management tool enables users to highlight specific objects for improved visibility within the structural model.
Integrate with Leading Analysis Software Revit Structure concurrently delivers a physical model as well as a fully associated analytical model of the building. The physical model drives the construction documentation. Drafters use this physical model to produce the drawing and detail sheets. Engineers and architects use it for co-ordination purposes such as interference checking.
Co-ordinate Across the Disciplines Revit Structure supports popular industry workflows with architects, MEP engineers and contractors. Workflow with DWG/DXF/DGN/IFC Formats Import, export and link to DWG, DXF™, DGN and IFC formats help to assure fully compatible data exchange between engineering firms and their client architects. Revit Structure supports the traditional workflow where structural modelling starts with 2D DWG files provided and created by the architect in AutoCAD software.
Without Revit Structure we’d be throwing our hands in the air as it would mean changing and checking every document. But now, revisions hardly take any time at all – and we can be confident that everything else will be automatically updated. – Colin Van Ackeren CAD Manager and Associate Director WSP Cantor Seinuk AutoCAD Revit Structure Suite AutoCAD® Revit® Structure Suite is a bundle consisting of Revit Structure and AutoCAD software with a single serial number and a single authorisation code.
