Welcome to the third edition of Introducing Revit Architecture, which was written based on the 2010 release of the software.
It was great fun revisiting our first book — we worked hard to polish it up and capture the new features in the 2010 release of Revit Architecture. We enjoyed the synergy of three friends, three architects, three authors collaborating to bring this project into reality. But mostly, we were all driven by the feeling that we’re doing something great: introducing Revit to those who have not been acquainted with its incredible power and its ability to put some fun back into using software and designing architecture.
This book is written for beginners who have never seen (or may have only heard about) Revit. It’s for architects of any generation — you don’t need to be a high-tech wizard to get into Revit. Toward that end, we wanted to make a book that is as much about architecture as it is about software. We’ve added many time-saving and inspiring concepts to the book to get you motivated and to help you on your journey into the new era of building information modeling (BIM). We think we’ve succeeded, because the book is full of real-world examples that show how to use Revit practically and creatively based on all of our experiences out there in professional practice.
