A Complete Guide to New Rivit 2022: What Are the New Highlights?

Purchasing Autodesk Revit 2022 became available on April 6th, 2022. IT administrators, students, and educators can purchase an educational license from Autodesk.

There are many things you can do with Revit. Applicants must check if they meet the requirements outlined by Autodesk. You are implementing more efficient design to documentation workflows, enhancing interoperability for project teams across all design phases. It is also improving design products that will enhance your experience when working with Revit.

Integration Improvement

Revit 2022 can easily integrate with everyday tools. It is now possible to work round-trip from Revit 2022 to Rhino and FormIt Pro. You can import the model into Revit using a link feature. Revit 2022 can also instantly incorporate Rhino modeling updates into current working models. That enables all teams to access updates to the model. Using the interoperable option 3D Sketch, Revit models can also be transferred to FormIt and modified.

Scheduling & Tagging

To help you communicate design intent and create design deliverables, Revit 2022 incorporates several tagging and scheduling features. Several improvements to schedules, annotations, tags, and setting up projects will make them more precise, faster, and less prone to errors. With Revit's Rotated Tags, flexible revision numbers, slopes, elevations, and grids in 3D views, designers can clearly communicate their intent and capture design intent.

A Wide Range of Options awaits at Revit 2022

Architects, in particular, will benefit from the improved modeling and informed design features in this release. In addition to tapered walls and slanted wall profiles, Revit 2022 includes new categories that make it easier to model common design elements, such as food and medical equipment, vertical circulation, and more. Furthermore, it comes with the latest updates to the Generic Design and Route Analysis tools. So you can make better design decisions based on more informed geometric analysis.

The improved documentation tools will benefit engineers of all stripes. Steel connections and rebar improvements have also been added for structural engineers, further expanding their capabilities. Scheduling improvements in Revit make it easier to document design intent for MEP engineers and fabricators. Enhancements were made to the Design to Fabrication tool to provide a smoother, more consistent workflow. Mechanical system analysis is directly displayed in Revit with detailed load and sizing reports, as well as energy analyses in 3D views.

Upgrade Features of Modeling

Rebar Modeling

As well as improving rebar modeling, the new version is also faster. Engineers can now design and place rebar elements easily in beams, columns, and slabs. Modeling the reinforcement also requires accurate measurements of the re-bars diameter. Taking these measurements will also eliminate rebar clashes. Structural representations are now more accurate and fast. In Revit 2022, you can record the loads that are borne by various building systems. That helps you determine the size of the system elements.

Tampered Walls

It is possible to design walls with tapered and angular edges in Revit 2022. Design parameters and dimensions can adjust based on the shape needed, allowing for instant changes to the form. It is possible to shape the geometry of tapered walls based on related components, such as windows.

Enhancements in Generative Design

In Revit 2022, there are new options available for the Generative Design feature that was missing in Revit 2021. Generative Design helps to iterate and study space planning in 3D.

The new sample space study options include random, grid, and stepped grid placement. It helps determine if spaces are too close or too spacious by establishing physical distance guidelines. AEC collaboration is also possible with Generative Design.
