Customer Rating: Summary: Good Revit book Comment: Revit is still not a casual use software package, and will take some time to get fast with. I would have liked a different book layout. e.g. ch 1 making a site plan. ch 2 constructing foundations ch 3 first floor and so on.
I like the pick call outs in the diagrams. Customer Rating: Summary: Residential design - a basic overview Comment: I have been using Revit since version 6 and this is a Basic but thorough overview of using Revit for Residential Design. If you have not used Revit and will be atempting to learn, this book is a great resource to start with. I feel this book doesn't cover enough to make this an effective overview if you are looking to do some high end modeling and construction documents but to get the basics. I found most of the advanced Revit techniques come with using the product and creating your own best practices. This is done by making mistakes and taking risks. This is not much differenct than any of the commercial books I have read except that it does some "House" tutorials. Customer Rating: Summary: revit for beginners Comment: although i have used revit before, this book taught me things i did not klnow how to do with revit. Customer Rating: Summary: Residential Design Using Revit Architecture 2008 Comment: Residential Design was my fourth text book on Revit Architecture 2008 and I found it to be the most practical for common sense hands-on learning. SDC publications and Daniel Stine authorship have combined for a winner. I look forward to beginning the "Commercial Design" text they have produced also.
Thanks, Hub7d Customer Rating: Summary: Residential Design Using Revit Architecture 2008 Comment: This book provides a common sense approach to designing a house from the ground up.
This is the 3rd book that I've tried. I was so frustrated, now I'm on my way to really understanding Revit. Bob
This textbook was designed for the architectural student using Revit Architecture 2008. Throughout the book the student develops a single family residence. The drawings start with the floor plans and develop all the way to photo-realistic renderings like the one on the cover.
