Revit is one of the most used programs around the world for the BIM methodology; allows you to create parametric 3D models from all AECo areas – Architecture, Engineering and Civil Construction.
This course is specifically designed to equip trainees with the skills necessary to use Revit in MEP specialty projects – Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing. The course covers techniques and commands for the development of 3D models of HVAC, hydraulics, electricity and other specialties.
WHO IS IT FOR
Architects, engineers, designers, technicians, designers and all people who want to use revit applying the BIM methodology.
