Revit Viewer still allows you to view and print the models, however any changes cannot be saved or printed.Īlternatively, BIM files can be viewed for free online using the A360 viewer ( ). This download allows you to trial the full version of Revit for 30 days, after which the Revit Viewer will remain on the computer. Viewing the Revit files requires a Revit Viewer! Autodesk Revit LT 2018 is a powerful tool for constructing and viewing 3D models of designs, it also provides a free trial (see ).

The downloaded file will appear as a ‘zip Archive’, which needs to be extracted before viewing. After selecting ‘Download BIM’, choose the option to download as an RVT file.

The download process is straightforward and easy: use your email address to set up a simple account with our partner ‘ .uk’. The files are downloadable via the website, allowing anyone to view the Breathing Buildings products in a 3D format, for free. Watch to learn how Moriyama & Teshima Architects are utilizing this cloud technology to aid their workflow here.Breathing Buildings full suite of hybrid ventilation products are available to download free of charge as full-featured BIM component Revit families. A360 has allowed this to happen seamlessly. With Moriyama & Teshima in Toronto and Architecttura headquartered in Windsor, the project has required a tool that could provide a central project repository and communication center that would enable both design teams to collaborate in real-time. Moriyama & Teshima Architect’s Windsor City Hall project - a joint-venture with Architettura - brought two core challenges to the forefront: communication with multiple team members in different organizations and sharing of complex BIM models. At this year’s event, Claudia had the pleasure to sit down with the Autodesk A360 team to discuss how Moriyama & Teshima Architects are using this innovative technology to improve BIM workflow. This annual conference is the world’s largest gathering of Autodesk software users and provides innovative forums and more than 650 classes for designers, engineers, and industry professionals.

Our very own Claudia Cozzitorto participated in the recent Autodesk University Conference in Las Vegas.
