Gain a strong foundation in structural Building Information Modeling (BIM) with our Revit Fundamentals Training for Structure. This course is designed to teach you the core concepts and tools needed to model, analyze, and document structural building designs using Revit’s powerful and flexible 3D parametric modeling environment.

Course Overview

You’ll learn how to navigate the Revit interface and use essential structural tools to create accurate and efficient models. The course walks you through the entire structural workflow—from linking an architectural model to producing detailed construction documents. Through a combination of theory and hands-on practice, you'll gain the skills to confidently design and document structural systems within a BIM process.

What You'll Learn

• Navigating the Revit workspace and understanding the software interface
• Starting a structural project with a linked architectural model
• Creating levels and grids as datum elements
• Working with the Project Browser and managing views
• Understanding Revit families and structural components
• Using sketching and modifying tools for design development
• Adding and managing structural columns
• Copying and monitoring elements from linked models
• Creating foundations and footings
• Developing structural framing including beams, trusses, and framing systems
• Adding structural slabs for foundations, floors, and roofs
• Modeling structural reinforcement, including rebar and fabric reinforcement
• Setting up sheets and managing views for documentation
• Annotating drawings with dimensions, text, and legends
• Adding tags and generating schedules
• Creating detailed views and incorporating detail components

Who Should Attend?

This course is ideal for:

• Structural engineers, technologists, and drafters new to Revit
• Professionals transitioning from 2D to BIM-based structural design
• Self-taught Revit users looking to formalize and deepen their knowledge
• Anyone working in a structural role seeking to improve their productivity with Revit
