The Bottom Line
Use Revit drafting and detailing tools efficiently
Revit MEP
2015 has many tools for creating the details and diagrams needed to
enhance your model and provide the necessary level of information for
your projects.
Master It
Although the drafting tools in Revit MEP 2015 may be
unfamiliar at first, learning to use them efficiently and effectively
helps you spend more time focusing on design decisions instead of
drafting efforts. Describe how filled regions can be used not only to
display a pattern but also to provide line information in a detail.
Use CAD details in Revit projects
Much of the detail information
used in your projects may already exist in another format. When you
transition to Revit, you can still use your CAD details.
Master It
Using CAD details in a Revit project can be a quick way
to complete your construction documents in a timely manner.
However, using many CAD files for details can have a negative effect
on file performance, so it is important to link CAD files whenever
they are used. Explain why importing and exploding CAD files can
adversely affect your project.
