Autodesk Revit Architecture 2010

Purpose-built for building information modeling (BIM), Revit Architecture helps designers explore early design concepts and forms, and more accurately maintain their vision through design, documentation and construction. Use the essential BIM data that Revit Architecture provides to support sustainable design, clash detection, construction planning and fabrication. Share the model to work collaboratively with engineers, contractors and owners in an integrated process. And with parametric change technology, any change made is automatically updated throughout the project, keeping design and documentation better coordinated and more reliable.

NEW Features in Autodesk Revit Architecture 2010

Conceptual Design Enhancements:

• New and innovative conceptual design features provide easier-to-use tools for freeform
  modeling and parametric design, and the ability to support the earliest design
  analyses.
• Sketch freely, create 3D forms more quickly and manipulate forms interactively.
• Prepare models for fabrication and construction with built-in tools for conception and
  clarification of complex forms. New tools to divide, pattern and panelize designs make
  forms more buildable.
• Autodesk Revit Architecture automatically builds a parametric framework around your
  most complex forms as you continue to design, offering you greater levels of creative
  control, accuracy and flexibility.
• Users can now take designs from concept model all the way to construction
  documents within one intuitive environment and user interface.

Improved User Interface:

• New streamlined user interface helps users find favorite tools and commands faster,
  locate lesser-used tools more efficiently and discover new features more easily.
• Customizable Quick Access Toolbar allows one-click access to a user’s favorite and
  most frequently used tools.
• The ribbon feature is organized around the way designers work, enabling users to find
  the tools to accomplish tasks without searching all over the user interface.
• Consistent user interfaces between most Autodesk software applications allows users
  to move between programs more smoothly.

Performance and Interoperability:

• New native 64-bit support enhances the software’s ability to handle large projects and
  improve performance and stability for memory-intensive tasks such as rendering,
  printing, model upgrading and file importing and exporting.
• Expanded API (application programming interface) support.
• Export to AutoCAD® Civil 3D® software and import from Autodesk® Inventor® , while
  preserving parametric data.
• gbXML (green building XML) improvements allow users to help streamline the
  collaboration process with external analysis applications.
