REVIT ARCHITECTURE/AUTOCAD
REVIT
ARCHITECTURE SUITE QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS
Architecture provides. These relationships are created either automatically by the software
or deliberately by the user as they work.
A fundamental characteristic of a building information modeling application is the ability to
coordinate changes and maintain consistency at all times. The user does not have to
intervene to update drawings, links, tags, and so forth.
This concept is important because it is this capability that delivers the fundamental
coordination and productivity benefits of Revit Architecture: Change anything at any time
anywhere in the project and Revit Architecture coordinates that change through the entire
project. This change management is also one of the fundamental characteristics of a
building information modeling solution.
5.2 Do I have to regenerate sections and schedules manually?
What if I want to work in the section?
The beauty of Revit
Architecture is that designers
work in the view that makes
sense for their project. Revit
Architecture was built to work
the way an architect thinks.
No. In Revit Architecture a section view is “live” and presents itself instantly when the user
creates it. The section view will automatically update if the defining section line is moved.
Designers can work (add or edit components) in the section view without restrictions.
Schedules are created using the same principle. They are simply another type of view. So
they are also “live” and they update as the designer changes the model. In fact, designers
can change things in the schedule and Revit Architecture updates the model and
drawings.
