Autodesk Revit Structure 2011

Autodesk Revit Structure software is the building information modeling (BIM) solution for structural engineering firms, providing purpose-built tools for structural design and analysis. Revit Structure helps provide the advantage of BIM to improve multidiscipline coordination of structural design documentation, minimize errors, and enhance collaboration between engineering and architecture teams.

Features:

• Seamless Coordination - Because Autodesk Revit Structure uses building information modeling (BIM), every view, drawing sheet, and schedule represents the same underlying database.
• Bidirectional Associativity - The building model and all of its views are part of the same information system within Autodesk Revit Structure.
• Collaboration with Architects - Autodesk Revit Structure software also supports the workflow where structural modeling starts with an architectural design done in AutoCAD® Architecture software.
• Collaboration with Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing Engineers - Autodesk Revit Structure users can export their structural model into AutoCAD MEP, where the MEP engineer can perform clash detection between pipes and structural elements.
• Automatic Drawing Sheet References - This functionality helps ensure that no section, elevation, or callout references the wrong drawing or sheet and that all data and graphics, details, schedules, drawings, and sheets in the drawing set are current and coordinated.
