Autodesk Revit is a powerful BIM (Building Information Modeling) software that enables architects, engineers, and construction professionals to turn their ideas into reality. With Revit, you can:
Revit not only helps architects, engineers, and contractors start the design process but also allows them to systematically develop it. With its comprehensive toolset—from sketching to planning, sharing, annotation, and visualization—
you can bring your designs to life faster, clearer, and in seamless collaboration with your team.
The evolving features and multidisciplinary tools in Revit help architecture, engineering, and construction professionals, both individually and as teams, deliver their best work.
Place walls, doors, and windows in an open, graphical, and parameter-rich system for design and form creation.
Import, export, and link widely used BIM and CAD file formats including IFC, 3DM, SKP, OBJ, and STEP.
Extend Revit functionality with Dynamo, API access, developer solutions, and BIM content available via the Autodesk App Store.
Launch Twinmotion directly from Revit, synchronize design data, and create photorealistic images, scenes, and animations in an intuitive content creation environment.
Create project sheets, add drawings and schedules, customize title blocks, and manage revisions effectively.
Save, synchronize, review, and update work centrally in a Revit project collaboration environment.
Effectively convey design intent using tools for 2D and 3D annotation, dimensioning, and detailing.
Use Revit’s multidisciplinary tools to reduce rework and promote collaboration across industries in design and documentation projects.
Track changes and revisions made to your building model after publishing sheets.
Use schedules to better capture, filter, sort, view, and share project data.
Control visibility by hiding, revealing, and highlighting building elements. Use overrides to customize views.
Define project phases (including demolition and renovation) and apply phase filters to views and schedules to display the project at different stages of construction.
With Revit’s freeform modeling and massing tools, freely create shapes from the early design stages. Express forms in the massing environment, then refine geometries parametrically in the project environment.
Evaluate parameters such as daylight analysis, overall building energy consumption, heating, and cooling loads using integrated building performance data. Predict project performance for more efficient and sustainable designs.
Use the Insight add-in to understand the carbon impact of projects from the conceptual phase. Transfer your Revit Energy Analytical Model to Insight to analyze environmental impacts, create carbon reduction scenarios, and make sustainability-focused decisions.
Easily add architectural elements such as walls, doors, and windows, or define custom families and components to meet any modeling and detail level needs.
Digitize real-world conditions using scanners and import them into Revit as point cloud data. Ideal for creating accurate digital models of existing buildings.
Communicate design decisions with high-quality visuals. Revit’s Autodesk Raytracer rendering engine offers precise and realistic visualization for both presentations and analysis.
Quickly connect different floors to create multi-story stairs automatically and dynamically, saving significant time for high-rise buildings.
Create toposolid surfaces and environmental site elements more accurately with new Revit tools. Snap-to-3D features enable perfect alignment with reference files like DWG.
Evaluate and improve your model in real time using structural analysis tools. Generate automatic analytical representations, run multiple analysis scenarios, and transfer data to documentation.
Create 3D rebar models for cast-in-place and precast concrete. Generate detailed rebar drawings and schedules automatically.
Model high-detail steel connections using Revit’s parametric connection library. Create custom connections for project-specific solutions.
Integrate structural analysis results into the BIM workflow. Enable iterative design processes with two-way data flow between model and analysis.
Supports computational design for engineers and designers, providing tools to create custom design workflows and increase efficiency while enabling creative solutions.
Seamless BIM workflow from design to fabrication using Advance Steel integration. Directly transfer designs to workshop production.
Perform electrical load calculations before modeling using PDFs, DWGs, or Revit geometry. Plan more accurately in early design stages.
Optimize HVAC system design and modeling with data-driven decision-making for energy-efficient systems.
Design complex duct and piping systems and produce complete technical documentation with mechanical components.
Design and document electrical systems, tracking loads across the distribution network to ensure balanced operation.
Plan sanitary and potable water piping accurately, positioning components appropriately and generating all necessary documentation.
Create production-ready models at LOD 400 for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing components, ensuring precise coordination for construction.
Optimize building performance using centralized data access and advanced analytics for energy-efficient design decisions.
Convert model elements from design level to fabrication-ready LOD for seamless production transition.
Document model layouts, create schedules, tag components, and automatically generate technical documents for fabrication.
Gain constructability insights from design models. Split and adjust wall layers and concrete pours; prepare detailed workshop drawings.
Customize production-ready building templates directly in design. Reuse validated components across multiple projects to save time and increase team efficiency.
Coordinate with teams using different software. Open Navisworks coordination models directly in Revit for seamless interdisciplinary collaboration.
Import 2D drawings from AutoCAD or export from Revit. Prepare drawing sets for workshops, subcontractors, or other stakeholders.
Enhance design models with construction-ready details to ensure clarity and accuracy for execution teams.
Track construction issues with the Revit Issues add-in. Define, manage, and resolve issues alongside team changes.
Synchronize data with Autodesk Construction Cloud mobile apps. Field teams can access project data and complete tasks even offline.
Generate multiple alternative solutions based on your design goals and constraints within seconds. Generative Design is available for Revit 2025 subscribers.
This tool saves time and allows you to compare scenarios, selecting the most suitable design through data-driven decision making.
Automate and optimize your BIM workflows with Revit’s open-source visual programming interface.
Use Dynamo to automate repetitive tasks, quickly generate complex geometries, and design custom parametric systems.
Access Autodesk Revit’s core functions directly to create custom workflows.
Automate tasks, extend existing functions, and develop specialized tools to make your building design and modeling processes more efficient.
