Revit Detailing

Creating details is a critical part of the design process, as it is the step where you specify the exact information that is required to build a construction project. As critical as detailing is, many Revit users never get to grip with the best techniques for creating 2D annotations. Many of the tools and techniques for detailing in Revit are hard to find or not well documented. We have created this 1-day Revit Detailing course to help you work smarter in the way you use 2D information in your 3D model.
