Structural Engineering Enhancements in Revit LT 2016
Learn about software improvements for structural engineering and analysis.
Steel profiles: The Structural Section category for structural columns and framing elements provides new dimension parameters for columns and framing elements.
Elevation parameters: To improve annotation and scheduling, the following fields are available:
Elevation at Top (beams, braces, structural floors, and foundation slabs)
Elevation at Top Core (multi-layered structural floors, and foundation slabs)
Elevation at Bottom Core (multi-layered structural floors, and foundation slabs)
Elevation at Bottom (beams, braces, structural floors, and foundation slabs)
Reference Level Elevation (beams and braces)
Rebar display performance: To improve performance so that views open and update faster, Revit LT regenerates reinforcement only for what is visible on the screen. In addition, if reinforcement appears very small on the screen, it is displayed as simplified lines, regardless of the detail level assigned to the view.
Note: You cannot use Revit LT to add reinforcement to models. However, if you use Revit LT to open a model that contains reinforcement, you can see it.
