Revit Architecture 2008 Basic Training Course on DVDs
With Revit Architecture, you get back to what you love: designing buildings, without your software getting in the way. Work in any view that makes sense, maintain the ability to design throughout different design
phases, and quickly and easily make changes to major compositional elements. Create comprehensive design proposals in record time. See your ideas realized on the fly with 3D views and instant shadows. You can even
make late-stage changes without worrying about coordinating your plans, schedules, and construction documents.This training course is designed to take you step by step showing you real life exercises.
