Revit Templates for Design Firms and Contractors

Building Information Modeling, or BIM, is the process of creating and managing information about a building project from planning and design to construction, and into operation. The process involves creating a digital representation, or digital twin, of an asset to manage the data throughout its lifecycle.

Autodesk Revit® software is the premier BIM authoring software used today. Revit is not BIM; however, using Revit is the gateway to BIM for many organizations. In addition to helping people learn Revit, CLICK2BIM offers Revit templates to help organizations with the implementation process. Beginning to use Revit is a major task. Using a CLICK2BIM Revit template will give you a head start in the process.

Revit Templates that Provide a Head Start with BIM

We refer to our Revit templates as “starter templates”. What that means is we provide a great starting point to begin using Revit. This also means that our templates only contain basic family content. In other words, we focus on Revit settings that can help you stay organized, views that are easily customizable, and tags to assist with documentation. This also keeps the file sizes down while reducing overall cost.

This also allows our customers to continue using their existing content or services while still taking advantage of our streamlined templates. We realize that there are many resources today that provide Revit families and CLICK2BIM will help create quality Revit family content which is why we want our templates to be flexible and accommodating to your BIM processes.
