Fabrication documentation
Document model layout more effectively. Document, schedule, and tag fabrication elements.
Construction modeling
Derive construction insight from design models. Split and manipulate wall layers and concrete pours, and prepare shop drawings for fabrication.
Construction coordination
Upload Revit models into BIM 360 Glue and sync with BIM 360 Layout. View and share point sets in the BIM 360 Glue web interface or the BIM 360 Layout iPad app.
Navisworks interoperability
Open a Navisworks coordination model directly in Revit to coordinate your design with the work of teams who use different software.
Import/Export 2D sheets
Bring AutoCAD files in or out of Revit, and prepare sheet sets for export to fabricators, subcontractors, or other project stakeholders in the format they need.
Constructability details
Augment design intent models with the detail necessary to meet the requirements of construction teams.
Fabrication for structural engineering
Link to Advance Steel for steel detailing and fabrication to help accelerate design-to-steel construction.
Fabrication for MEP engineering
Convert design level-of-detail model elements to fabrication level-of-detail elements for detailed coordination, fabrication, and installation.
