Revit is a 3D construction modeling software package by Autodesk that allows users to collaborate online to find clashes in the structural, electrical, and mechanical design. Accurate updating of the database during the design phase and with survey information from robotic stations through to construction can identify areas where items in the 3D deisgn overlap occur or "clash". These clashes are costly to find on regular 2D digital plans or fix in the field.

Revit is a 3D construction modeling software package by Autodesk that allows users to collaborate online to find clashes in the structural, electrical, and mechanical design. The 3D plans can be rotated about any point. Plans with perspective lines allow users to view a walk through the structure by navigating with a mouse. Accurate updating of the database during the design phase and with survey information from robotic stations through to construction can identify areas where items in the 3D deisgn overlap occur or "clash". These clashes are costly to find on regular 2D digital plans or redesign in the field.  
  
Building structures are designed from families of structural beams, walls, floors, trusses and braces. The interior components are families of walls, doors, windows, columns, ceilings, floors, curtain walls systems. Families are organized in to types. Each type is assigned properties for the assembly specifcation. The types properties multilist box allows specifying about constraints relative to other components, construction of the component, dimensions of the specified component, identity data about the manufacturers product, cost from subcontractors, graphics color and fill pattern.

Additonal properties can be added to define the component type.
  
 
The up to date completed 3D database Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the documentation used for future building maintenance and expansion. Reveit is used to view the schedule of construction activities or 4D CAD. The software has a user modifiable library of standard building components that are used to construct the building in 3D.
