Currently, architects, consultants, general contractors, and manufacturers all create their own models and databases from information handed down in a chain of command. A main function of Revit is to eliminate redundancies such as having multiple models across industries. Revit is intended to be a major component in Building Information Modeling. This procedure prevents two users from making the same change simultaneously and prevents conflicts Revit checks with the central file whenever a user starts working on an object in the database to see if another user is editing the object. Users then save to the central file to update the central file with their changes and to receive changes from other users. Each user works on a copy of the central file (known as the local file), stored on the user's workstation.
When a project database is shared, a central file is created which stores the master copy of the project database on a file server on the office's LAN. Thus, Revit drawings and schedules are always fully coordinated in terms of the building objects shown in drawings.
Because changes to each representation of the database model are made to one central model, changes made in one representation of the model (for example a plan) are propagated to other representations of the model (for example elevations). Such representations can be plans, sections, elevations, legends, and schedules. RFA files, and imported into the RVT database as needed.Ī Revit model is a single database file represented in the various ways which are useful for design work. These parametric objects - 3D building objects (such as windows or doors) or 2D drafting objects (such as surface patterns) - are called "families" and are saved in. Typically, a building is made using 3D objects to create walls, floors, roofs, structure, windows, doors and other objects as needed.
