This document provides an overview of Revit software, including: - Revit allows for real-time updates to views when changes are made. - Key features include being a BIM software, supporting 3D modeling, bi-directional associativity, and parametric modeling. - BIM enables an intelligent digital prototype of a building prior to construction and integration of building systems. - Revit files can be project files or family files with different extensions. - The user interface includes shortcuts for rotating, panning, zooming and selecting elements.

4. BIM
BIM is a technology to create
an intelligent digital
prototype of a building,
prior to construction.
It is a technology which
provides a global information
about a project, throughout a
life cycle with the help of
intelligent elements

5. BUILDING SYSTEMS
INTEGRATION
BIM is a of virtual
simulation and optimization of a
building facility and all its
interactions from concept to
demolition

Once we made changes in one particular
view of a project, those changes will be
updated immediately to the remaining views.
