Revit Tip - Turn off Coarse Filled Walls in Linked Revit Project
If you have ever taken a Revit model from an Architect and linked into a new Revit project you may find that the walls print shaded when the view is set to coarse mode. In this video I explain how to remove the shade from the walls without bothering the Architect.

View and Share Any Design File
would you like to view and share your design files without having to login to a website with no downloads and no plugins required? Well Autodesk has launched a website to do just that.
view 2D and 3D designs in over 50 file formats. I tested the site today with some large Revit models and my browser handled the viewing just fine. Actually my models loaded quicker than when I place them into A360 for viewing.
You have the ability to turn on and off layers / categories, view sheets and 3d views for Revit models. Even explode your model if you wish. Many more features available I suggest you check them out.

Revit to Fabrication CADMEP workflow
I have been working with contractors that are utilizing Autodesk Fabrication CADMEP for their fabrication designs. These contractors are receiving Revit files from MEP consultants however they tend to re-create the fabrication drawings manually and not utilize a BIM workflow.
I have been working with them to get the consultants Revit files into Fabrication CADMEP. The two videos attached will show you quickly how content from Revit can be brought into Fabrication CADMEP and populated with the proper content required for construction.
Stay tuned for more posts on Autodesk Fabrication and the exploration of using Revit for Fabrication drawings in the coming weeks.

In the Fold announces a new technology preview from Autodesk called Project Skyscraper to bring Revit collaboration to the Cloud check out the post here. I guess you can call this Revit Server in the cloud. Still will raise a few questions like what will the cost be? how much storage do I receive? who owns the model?
