CADLearning have allowed free access to a fairly info-packed ebook. Interestingly, it reads more as a 236 page ‘Introduction to everything about Revit’. Its a pretty detailed document, and the “new” 2016 features seem to be only occasionally mentioned. But its well worth a look…

Check it out at:
http://files.cadlearning.com/epub/Learning-Autodesk-Revit-2016-New-Features/

A few pages to check out:

  • Page 50 for Reveal Constraints
  • Page 65 for Adaptive point orientation
  • Page 142 for Fabrication Parts
  • Page 176 for Selection Boxes

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.
