A Customized & reusable library helps AEC professionals to create accurate modeling standards as per BIM Level of Detailing & obtain Quantity Take-Off in real-time with enhanced speed & reduced modeling time.​

1. Tips For
Improving Revit
Family Creation

2. • Revit BIM is a digitized software
application for implementing BIM,
facilitating transition with assured quality
& accuracy to all AEC projects. ​
• Revit family creates BIM (Model)
parametric dimensional competencies to
geometric components. ​
• A Customized & reusable library helps AEC
professionals to create accurate modeling
standards as per BIM Level of Detailing &
obtain Quantity Take-Off in real-time with
enhanced speed & reduced modeling
time.​
A Brief About
Revit:​

3. Stay Minimal While
Modeling Geometry​
• Include detailed levels for elevations & plan
representation & display options
accessible on visibility settings. ​
• Use of symbolic lines & masking regions
instead of geometry​

4. Don’t Over Model, Restricting
Assembly Creation​
• While building assemblies, ensure you have restricted creation of assemblies &
parts to prevent model overloading with all unnecessary details. ​
• Ensure that you have considered the significant assemblies.​

5. Limit Usage of Nested & Parameterized
Families​
• With apt usage of parameters & nested families, you can successfully
customize & create the families.
• However, it is significant that the use of nested & parameterized Revit
families is necessary only to the point, as overloading leads to intricacy,
making products frustrating.

6. Use Families Instead
of Group
• Infographics encompass visual data
representation, making intricate
information easy to share & digest. ​
• While making a Revit family, one should
organize images, charts, & text, citing
sources.​

7. Create Elements Using
Solids Instead of Voids​
• Voids are great to use if used frugally but they
enforce penalties in terms of performance if
used inappropriately or overused. ​
• Often voids present the solitary way of
modeling elements accurately. ​
• Nevertheless, it’s better to create elements
using solids rather than voids.​
