Revit Structure software improves the way structural engineers and drafters work. It minimizes repetitive modeling and drawing tasks, as well as errors due to manual coordination between structural engineers, architects, and drafters. Revit Structure 2009 helps reduce time spent producing final construction drawings and increases the accuracy of documentation, improving overall project deliverables for clients.

Whether engineers are designing steel, cast-in-place concrete, precast concrete, masonry, or wood structures, standard modeling objects in Revit Structure software include walls, beam systems, columns, slabs, and foundations. Additional structural objects can be created as parametric components.

Key Features in Revit Structure 2009

• Seamless Coordination - Because Revit Structure 2009 uses building information modeling (BIM), every view, drawing sheet, and schedule is a direct representation of the same underlying database.
• Bidirectional Associativity - The building model and all of its views are part of the same information system. This means changes to any part of the structure need to be made only once, maintaining consistency throughout the documentation set.
• Project Organization - Because all information is conveniently stored in one file, design teams spend less time managing project content.
• Multiuser Collaboration - Revit Structure 2009 enables multiple team members on the same network to work together on a model, while their work stays fully coordinated.
• Multiple Materials - Revit Structure 2009 software includes building materials such as steel, cast-in-place concrete, precast concrete, masonry, and wood.
