Mastering Revit Architecture 2010

This is the ultimate resource for anyone interested in Revit. It's has 819 pages and is made up of 24 chapters detailing everything you need to know. Since the demand for such a resource is high, I wont upload it as I have a limited bandwidth cap with my FTP site. I will, however, forward the PDF version of the book for free to those who are interested. email me at

Autodesk Revit demonstrations

I have a collection of videos for Autodesk Revit that I've uploaded. They are all in high quality. They are very useful for those who want to have a quick overview of the software. Many of my students and colleagues have been asking about Revit. So, here it is, free of charge.

To view them:

- Download the zip file
- Extract it to your Hard drive
- Open one of the 14 sections

CATIA V5 - Smooth out bumps on Solid Faces

This demo shows how to get rid of irregular surfaces that may show up on certain parts. the Sew surface tool is shown. The tool is great time saver as you don't need to redo the surfaces in question. No trimming or deleting is required of old faces.

CATIA V5 - How to flatten a dumb sheetmetal part

Often, we receive files that are non-intelligent, with no history or any parametric dimensions and constraints. Sure, you can try to feature recognize or reverse engineer. However, those methods are laborious and tedious to say the least. One of the nice things about most sheetmetal designs is the constant thickness. This enables designers to import dumb (no history) 3D parts and turn them into usable sheetmetal parts that can be flattened. Not only that, but drawings can be generated from the 3D file. This way, the 2D representation can be dimensioned or sent to DXF for laser or waterjet cutting. In this demo, you can see how easy it is to take a part from any CAD software and convert it into a proper part.
