Structural Modeling in Revit (Marcello's Framing Principles)

On this episode of BIM After Dark Live I will be joined by the great Marcello Sgambelluri to talk about structural modeling in Revit (Marcello's Framing Principles). I know this show (and my content) tend to be architecture heavy. I'm an architect, what can I say?! Well, this one goes out to our structural engineering friends using Revit. Marcello is well known for create lots of "wild" things in Revit (like elephants) but he is a structural engineer at heart. I could not think of a better person to come on and share his best tips when modeling building structures in Revit! We'll be covering a whole spectrum of topics from using analytical lines as helpers, to columns schedules, and even some Dynamo... Sit back, relax, and let's geek out!
