Structures

Add structural elements to the building model.

Topics in this section
  • The Structural Analytical Model
    Create a simplified representation of model geometry that can be used for structural analysis.
  • Robot Structural Analysis Integration
  • Structural Columns
    Use the structural column tools to add vertical load-bearing elements to building models.
  • Beams
    Use beams tools to add load-bearing structural elements to building models.
  • Beam Systems
    Use beam system tools to add a single structural framing element that contains a series of individual beams placed in parallel to a building model.
  • Braces
    Use brace tools to add diagonal members that are connected to beams and columns.
  • Structural Framing
    Learn how to work with framing elements to facilitate modeling your project.
  • Calculate the Weight for Structural Steel Elements
    Learn how to add the required parameters to correctly calculate the weight of structural steel elements.
  • Structural Connections
    Use the Connection tool to add a structural connection to elements in your structural model.
  • Library-Based Connection Design Automation
    Use library-based connection design automation to model your design intent faster, while embedding design and fabrication rules to reduce iterations.
  • Detailed Steel Modeling
    Steel fabrication tools allow you to place over 100 types of standard parametric structural connections and to quickly create custom connections and steel fabrication elements where needed.
  • Trusses
    Use the Truss tool to add a truss to your building model according to the layout and other parameters specified in the selected truss family type.
  • Structural Walls
    Create a Shear, Bearing, or Structural combined structural wall.
  • Foundations
    Create foundations for the building model using isolated foundations, wall foundations, and foundation slabs.
  • Structural Floors
    Use the structural floor tool to add structural floors to a building model.
  • Concrete Modeling
    Learn how Revit joins concrete elements and displays them in views.
  • Reinforcement
    Use reinforcement tools to add reinforcement, such as rebar, reinforcement bars, or fabric to valid hosts, such as concrete columns, beams, walls, foundations, and structural floors.
  • Analysis Results Exploration and Management
    Explore and manage structural analysis results.
  • Structural Precast
    The precast tools provide a simple, user-friendly working environment for creating 3D structural models from which shop drawings and CAM files are created.
  • Course: Structural Project Setup and Start-Up
    Learn how to begin a structural model setting up a template and defining settings.
  • Course: Co-Author Structural Models
    Learn how to document existing conditions when you begin a project.
