Autodesk Revit Structure
 Autodesk® Revit® Structure software integrates a multimaterial physical model and an independently editable analytical model for more efficient structural analysis, design, and documentation.
Extend your Revit Structure design model and further deliver on BIM with Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis software and bidirectional linking to our industry-leading partner applications.
Features
Autodesk® Revit® Structure software offers building informational modelling (BIM) to structural engineering firms. Features of Autodesk Revit Structure help improve multidiscipline coordination and incorporate analysis through bidirectional linking to popular structural analysis software, including Autodesk® Robot™ Structural Analysis Professional software. Powerful parametric change management technology assists in coordinating modifications and updates across the model and documentation.
Core Features
Autodesk Revit Structure offers powerful features such as two-way model and view updating, bidirectional links with structural analysis packages, and multiple materials documentation.

Interoperability with Autodesk Revit Architecture & Autodesk Revit MEP
Structural engineers, MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) engineers, and architects can take advantage of the Revit building information modelling platform and work more efficiently on the same shared database. Perform interference checking between architectural, structural, and MEP elements. For even greater coordination, receive electronic notifications about the design changes made by the rest of the design team.

Multiple Materials Modelling
Revit Structure includes building materials such as steel, cast-in-place concrete, precast concrete, masonry, and wood. Since the buildings you design are constructed of multiple building materials, Revit Structure enables you to model your structure using the materials you need.

Multiuser Collaboration
Worksharing distributes the power of the parametric building modelling environment across the project team. Multiple users can share the same intelligent building information model and save their work to one central file. Worksharing provides a comprehensive range of collaboration modes: within a structural engineering firm; between engineers and drafters; and within an architectural engineering firm, between engineers and architects and drafters working with them.

Parametric Structural Components
Revit Structure offers a full set of structural modelling design tools such as walls, joist systems, beams, trusses, open web joists, precast concrete elements, concrete rebars, steel connections, anchors, and metal deck details. Parametric definitions enable you to make quick revisions to any object type. When you create new objects, details, or symbols, Revit Structure stores them in families that you can edit and reuse in other projects.

Bidirectional Associatively Between Model & Views
In Revit Structure, every 2D and 3D view, every drawing sheet, every detail, and every schedule is a direct presentation of information from the same underlying building database. Anytime you make changes, the software propagates those changes throughout the model and updates every related plan, section, elevation, and schedule. This key feature of Revit Structure makes all the difference in the system’s ease of use and responsiveness, helping to greatly reduce coordination errors and improve overall documentation quality.

Bidirectional Links with Multiple Analysis Packages
The analytical model in Revit Structure is bidirectionally linked with Autodesk® Robot™ Structural Analysis Professional software and Autodesk® Robot™ Structural Analysis software. Bidirectional linking means that analysis results accurately and automatically update your model if any member size has changed. And parametric change technology coordinates those updates everywhere in your project views and construction drawings. Revit Structure also links to third party structural analysis and design programs. Examples of structural analytical information that can be shared with structural analysis and design programs include release and boundary conditions, loads and load combinations, and material and section properties.

Construction Documents
Revit Structure automates the repetitive, manual drafting tasks required in conventional CAD systems. Cut sections and elevations and call out detail views more quickly. Reference sections, elevations, and details automatically in accordance with the sheet’s numbers. Bidirectional associatively means that any change in any view is propagated in every related view so drawings stay fully coordinated.

Structural Details
Create details from views of the 3D model with additional annotations or from scratch with Revit Structure 2D drafting tools, or import them from conventional CAD files. To save time, import entire sheets of typical details in DWG format from previous projects. Dedicated drafting tools are available for structural modelling of steel and reinforced concrete details such as welding symbols, anchor bolts, rebar, and concrete area reinforcement.

Structural Engineering Software for Building Information Modelling
Autodesk® Revit® Structure 2010 software integrates a multi-material physical and analytical model, providing concurrent structural modelling for more efficient, accurate documentation, analysis, and design, giving you a competitive advantage.

|
Support for Multiple Data Formats
Revit Structure imports, exports, and links your data with industry-leading formats, including DWG, DXF™, DGN, IFC, and CIS/2, so you can more easily work with data from consultants, clients, or contractors. Revit Structure supports the traditional workflow where structural modelling starts with DWG files provided by the architect using AutoCAD® or AutoCAD® Architecture software. Also, Revit Structure exports 3D models to AutoCAD Architecture where structural properties can be queried.
