The Autodesk Revit Structure Advance course introduces experienced users of the Autodesk® Revit® Structure software to more advanced techniques and concepts beyond what was learned in the Autodesk Revit Structure Essentials training guide. It is intended to broaden your knowledge and maximize your use of the Autodesk Revit Structure software. This course offers detailed information and practical exercises regarding creating families (tapered columns, precast slabs, tapered moment frame, and trusses), preparing the Autodesk Revit software analytical model for analysis and project sharing. This course offers metric hands-on exercises representing real-world design scenarios.The Autodesk Revit Structure Advanced course introduces experienced users of the Autodesk® Revit® Structure software to more advanced techniques and concepts beyond what was learned in the Autodesk Revit Structure Essentials training guide.
