Autodesk On-Demand Learner Profiles Autodesk On-Demand is a self-study training solution that was designed for two types of learners. First, Autodesk On-Demand is a great fit for experienced professionals have some experience with Autodesk and don't need traditional classes to upgrade their existing skills. They can pick and choose topics to make the most effective use of their time. Second, Autodesk On-Demand is perfect for highly-motivated individuals who are new to Autodesk and need to space their learning over a period of weeks or months. These learners can take their time and repeat sections as needed until they master the new concepts.

Fundamentals for MEP • Introduction to the Autodesk Revit software, including navigating the Revit interface. • Starting an MEP project based on a linked architectural model and creating levels and grids as datum elements for the model. • Understanding the project browser and working with views. • Understanding Revit families and components. • Working with the basic sketching and modifying tools. • Copying and monitoring elements and coordinating linked models. • Creating spaces so that you can analyze heating and cooling loads. • Connecting and testing basic systems. • Creating pipe systems with plumbing fixtures and pipes. • Creating duct systems with air terminals, mechanical equipment, and ducts. • Creating advanced HVAC and plumbing systems with automatic duct and piping layouts. • Creating electrical circuits with electrical equipment, devices, and light fixtures and adding cable trays and conduits. • Setting up sheets, and placing and modifying views on sheets. • Working with dimensions, text, annotations, and legends. • Adding tags and working with schedules. • Setting up detail views and adding detail components. Fundamentals for Project Managers • Understanding the purpose of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and how it is applied in Revit. • Navigating the Revit workspace and interface. • Working with the basic modifying and modeling tools. • Troubleshooting elements in projects. • Viewing models using plans, elevations, sections, and 3D views. • Putting together construction documents by adding views to sheets that can then be printed. • Exporting files to CAD formats and DXF (the Autodesk® Design Review software). • Working with schedules. • Linking and importing CAD files and Revit models into projects. BIM Management: Template and Family Creation • Create custom templates with annotation styles, title blocks, and custom element types. • Create schedules, including material takeoff schedules with formulas. • Create custom wall, roof, and floor types, as well as MEP system families. • Set up a component family file with a parametric framework. • Create family geometry. • Create family types. • Modify the visibility of components and incorporate additional family items such as controls, MEP connectors, and nested components. • Create specific families, including in-place families, profiles, annotations, and parameters. Collaboration Tools • Set up project phasing. • Use groups. • Create and display a variety of design options. • Link Autodesk Revit files. • Use multi-discipline coordination, including Copy/Monitor and Coordination Review. • Import and export CAD and raster files, including exporting Revit models for energy analysis. • Understand, use, and set up worksharing in a server-based environment. Navisworks: Fundamentals • Understanding the purpose of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and how it is applied in the Autodesk Navisworks software. • Navigating the Autodesk Navisworks workspace and interface. • Consolidating models from different software and properly aligning them to create a single Navisworks model. • Saving and retrieving views and sectioning a model. • Using basic viewing and investigation tools to locate, review, and measure items. • Adding tags and comments to model components. • Reviewing a model for clashes. • Performing quantification calculations and material takeoffs. • Animating and writing scripts to interact with the model. • Creating and animating a construction timeline. • Creating photorealistic images. _ Note: The course outline above is based on the 2025 version of the Autodesk software. Topics may differ slightly if using an earlier version of the software.
