AutoCAD Architecture and Revit Architecture?

 

Thanks,

Technically they are the means to the same end. Both are viable BIM programs, with Revit being more polished in some areas, and Autocad Architecture being polished in some areas.

 

Revit is a purpose built BIM solution, While Autocad Architecture is built on top of the Autocad platform. This restricts Autocad Architecture in some ways IE parametrics. While Revit excels at parametrics. You can move a window in elevation view, and it will reflect that change in EVERY sheet. Autocad Architecture requires that you refresh your elevations before you will see the changes. And you must make changes to say our example window in plan or 3d view.

 

that is the very short desc.

 

Both are excelent programs.

 

if you do not know what BIM is (building information modeling) I would implore you to do a bit of a search, the BIM process is indeed the future of Architectural design.
