Create a project in Revit and enter project-specific information.
Important: Revit models are not backwards-compatible. When you create or modify a model using the current release of the software, you cannot open the model later using a previous release.
- Create the project.
Use a project template provided by your CAD/BIM manager, or use a default template.
- Specify project information.
Enter the client name, project name, number, and address.
- Define positioning.
To provide context for the model, specify the geographic location and define True North, the survey point, and the project base point.
- Create construction phases.
By default, Revit defines an Existing phase and a New phase. It also indicates the demolition of existing construction. If you need additional project phases, create them.
