What's new in Revit 2020
New and enhanced Revit® building design software features support consistent, coordinated, and complete modeling for multidiscipline design that extends to detailing and construction.
-
PDF underlay support
Insert a PDF into Revit from any source and snap to the PDF to model new elements based on the 2D data. (video: 2:03 min.)
-
Path of travel
Understand how people will move
in -
Elliptical walls
Create more advanced wall geometry with the ability to draw elliptical walls and curtain walls. (video: 43 sec.)
-
Tag, schedule, and view filter for elevation
Schedule elevation of elements and use those values in view filters, streamlining the ability to interact with elements in the properties palette. (video: 1:05 min.)
-
Track and edit scope box parameter in view list
Include the scope box parameter in a view list, coordinate crop regions across multiple views without opening each view.
-
Create parts from imported geometry
Imported geometry (direct shapes) can now be split into parts. Make cuts and adjustments to parts using Revit opening and cut tools. (video: 28 sec.)
-
Copy and paste legends across sheets
Enhanced copy-and-paste functionality for legends lets you efficiently copy legends for use in other locations.
-
Improved rebar copy and move logic
Get more predictable behavior when copying and moving shape-driven rebar, for higher accuracy and design intent fidelity. (video: 2:30 min.)
-
Enhanced multi-rebar annotation
Use multi-rebar annotations for planar parallel freeform rebar sets and concrete faces. (video: 2:01 min.)
-
Steel connections for Dynamo
Use Dynamo to accelerate the insertion of multiple steel connections based on user-defined rules. (video: 1:21 min.)
-
Propagation of steel connections
Quickly add similar steel connections to your project by propagating existing connections. (video: 47 sec.)
-
Electrical panel feed through lugs connection
Model the connection of panels through feed-through lugs, more accurately documenting the system design.
-
Electrical homerun wiring improvements
With more control over arrowheads and tick marks, create electrical documentation that is easier to understand and use.
-
Revit extension for fabrication exports
Generate CSV output to be used in spreadsheets or other data environments directly from Revit.
-
Change service improvement
Change service now allows multi-shape services to be preserved or replaced in a single operation. (video: 32 sec.)
Revit 2019.2
-
Cloud models for Revit
Store and access nonworkshared Revit models on the BIM 360 platform in a data format optimized for cloud storage, single-use editing, and syncing.
-
CAM export
Create Unitechnik and PXML files to better-connect cast-in-place and precast concrete projects to automatic fabrication processes.
-
Zoom in schedules
Use familiar keyboard shortcuts to zoom in and out within a schedule to more easily read small fonts in a large schedule view.
-
Edit elevation properties
Directly edit the top and bottom elevation properties of cable tray, duct, and conduit elements, facilitating easier model modification and coordination.
Revit 2019.1
-
Revit Home
Access, store, and share project information. Open files stored in BIM 360, locally, or on a network.
-
Site collaboration with Civil 3D
Develop, use, and share topography data using interoperable workflows with Civil 3D.
-
Free-form rebar-aligned distribution
Create rebar sets with planar bars distributed along the faces of a structural element and aligned to a distribution path.
Revit 2019
-
Multimonitor support and tabbed views
Improve working space by organizing and arranging views using tabbed documents that can be docked, tiled, and viewed on multiple monitors.
-
Levels in 3D views
Understand and manipulate important datum heights in your project with the option to display levels in 3D views.
-
OR in filters
Create view filters with multiple rules and nested sets with combination of AND and OR conditions.
-
Uncropped perspective views
Work in full-screen uncropped perspective view. Move around the view freely with navigation commands such as Zoom, Pan, and Orbit.
-
Double-fill patterns
Communicate design intent by applying both foreground and background fill patterns in cut or surface.
-
Custom steel connections
Enhance detailed steel modeling with the ability to create your own steel connections with dedicated tools.
-
Engineering documentation for steel
Create accurate engineering documentation for structural steel, including details with steel connections.
-
Free-form rebar shape matching
Use Revit to match existing rebar shape families or create new rebar shape families based on free-form bar geometry.
-
Autodesk Drive
Securely store, preview, and share your 2D and 3D design data using data storage designed for individuals and small teams.
-
Precast girder slabs automation
Perform segmentation; add reinforcement according to predefined rules; and generate shop drawings.
-
Complex piping networks
Improved pressure drop analysis for complex networks, supporting primary/secondary separation for hydronic systems.
-
Parallel pump analysis
Analyze pumps in parallel in hydronic piping networks, easily compute flow from duty and standby pump quantities.
