I guess I need to have a Revit 2016 new features post, even if I don’t have a lot to say right now… I have started putting together a list of Revit 2016 videos at the end of this post too. I have to say, I miss the days when there was just one good, long post about new features and everyone just linked to that one 🙂

My top feature for Revit 2016? I suppose its the MEP fabrication integration. Even if its not one-click, design to fabrication solution yet, I personally think that any effort made to make fabrication from Revit easier or more predictable is definitely a step in the right direction.

There is a good list of links over at  What’s New in Revit 2016 | The BIMsider

Best result will probably be to copy and paste the links into a download manager, such as DownThemAll with Firefox…

Just making sure you got these two important points:

  1. All project and enterprise BIM 360 Glue subscriptions include access to Autodesk Navisworks Manage 2016 (available soon) for use by the purchasing company
  2. Attach and view BIM 360 Glue models directly inside AutoCAD 2016
    Reference the Glue merged model as you design to avoid potential conflicts
