Instant Revit 2021: A Quick and Easy Guide to Learning Autodesk Revit 2021 David Martin

This is the seventh version of the Instant Revit! series of books. The book is meant to
give you basic instruction in the Revit design program. It is for students that already
have some architectural drafting/design experience and have experience reading
and/or drawing floor plans, elevations, sections, details, and other architectural
drawing types. Using this book to learn Revit does not require knowledge of another
CAD software program such as: AutoCAD, MicroStation, and ArchiCAD.

The projects that you will be completing were originally designed for my Introduction
to Revit course at Glendale Community College. From its beginning as a lab manual,
the first Instant Revit! book was published in 2015. Changes to the book and project
have come from observing students working their way through the book. I have taken
their suggestions and have used them to fine-tune it into the book you see here.

The tutorials will guide you through three “warm-up” projects and a two-story
residential building. Each tutorial is divided into parts that will have you accomplish a
portion of the project. There is also an Appendix procedure that will instruct the student
in adding a basement to the completed project.
