Building information modeling (BIM) is the new AutoCAD for architects and interior designers—and Revit Architecture is the leading software package in the BIM marketplace. Revit Architecture 2014 for Designers is written specifically for architects and interior designers as they transition from CAD to BIM. Beginning with the building blocks of BIM modeling (walls, windows, and doors), the text progresses through dynamically generated 2dimensional and 3dimensional views to advanced features — such as photorealistic rendering, custom title blocks, and exporting drawings to AutoCAD and SketchUp. Instructions are fully illustrated, creating a smooth transition to the BIM environment for all designers. Clear, concise, and above all visual, this is the essential Revit guide written specifically for interior designers and architects. View

This text views building construction and its systems through the lens of sustainability, providing an integrated approach to the principles of sustainable design as the way a building is created. As a practicing architect and interior designer, Tucker covers all systems including construction systems, mechanical systems, electrical and plumbing systems, and interior systems. The technical knowledge and vocabulary presented here allow interior designers, architects, engineers, and contractors to communicate more effectively among themselves while collaborating on projects.
