Works the Way You Think
The Problem
  • Inadequate information available to fully support decision-making at all phases of the project


  • The full consequences of changes to the design are difficult to determine


  • Your design thinking is difficult to communicate to the client
8
Works the Way You Think
The Solution
  • Improved design collaboration within your office; all members of the project team work together on the same information


  • Better design insight through in-process visualization and analysis


  • Documents and presentations are clear and complete

"Errors in construction documents are..."
  • Errors in construction documents are expensive, damaging client relationships and exposing architects and designers to potential liability


  • Manual inspection of drawing sets is required to find mistakes and coordination problems


  • Manual estimation of material and equipment quantities is time consuming and error-prone


  • Money is lost and time is wasted during construction administration
14
"Revit virtually eliminates defects caused..."
  • Revit virtually eliminates defects caused by un-coordinated or poorly detailed drawings


  • Coordination is assured by the system


  • Document sets are higher quality, reducing construction costs

Better for Your Business
The Problem
  • Economic pressures are driving down fees and accelerating design schedules


  • Insufficient time to properly communicate design intent leads to unmet client expectations


  • Clients are seeking a more complete menu of services
20
Better for Your Business
The Solution
  • Orders-of-magnitude reduction in production time from schematic design through construction documents


  • Better documents mean fewer problems and less time spent in construction phase


  • Easier to perform additional services for more fee (integration with estimator, move management, phasing)

Empowering Sustainable Design
The Problem
  • Manual calculation of material quantities is difficult, expensive and error-prone, often discouraging the consideration of critical sustainable design information


  • Solar effects and lighting analysis are difficult to perform; often disrupting the design process by requiring additional coordination with outside parties


  • Money is lost, time is wasted and the project suffers when design information can’t be easily shared with building performance analysis applications.
26
Empowering Sustainable Design
The Solution
  • Calculating material quantities in support of sustainable design criteria is greatly simplified through the use of the material takeoff feature


  • Revit Architecture sun studies enable designers to quickly analyze sun positions and solar effects; delivering real-time, in-process design feedback


  • Designers can perform energy analysis and study building performance utilizing the gbXML interface
