Master Revit Curtain Walls and become a PRO in BIM workflows, using Revit 2024
This course is aimed at advanced users. I suppose you have some prior experience using Revit when taking this class. This class is focused only on one topic and that is Curtain Walls. We will discuss everything there is to know about curtain walls in Revit. I am using Revit 2024 version in this course. You will get many tips from my workflows on limitations and usability of different tools, because the fact that the tool is available in Revit, doesn´t necessarily mean that it is usable. At the end of this course you will understand how the Curtain Walls work in Revit and you will not be surprised by any exceptions and strange behavior Revit will try to throw at you.
What you’ll learn
- you will master all curtain wall parts.
- learn manual and automatic placement of curtain grids.
- know the difference between dependent/independent curtain wall grids.
- curtain wall join offset and grid layout modifications.
- get to know how cutting of geometry works in Revit 2024.
- how to create system panels, empty opeings, custom panels and opening in curtain panels.
- how to place doors and windows into curtain walls.
- you will master curtain wall mullions, corner mullions and profile families used to create mullions.
- learn how to create truly curved curtain wall.
- extra tips.
