Does Revit system contain Revit building?

Is Revit Building a part of Revit System, or do I need to purchase this separately?

Building is *not* part of Systems.

However, many of the common architectural tools are in Systems.

I live in Norway, so will the Norwegian Revit Building localizer work in Revit System?

To the best of my knowledge no version of Revit exists that supports any Norwegian language yet. If there is content specific to Norway it isn't posted on the Autodesk site. Revit Systems 2 was released to support metric content, among other things. If you can use Revit Systems you should be able to use Revit Building too.

The biggest differences between the two is that you won't be able to make Systems content in Revit Building or place any of the MEP using the workflow found in Systems. Systems lacks the site tools and several important structural features, otherwise it has a complete set of the architectural features that Building has. Each application will not install the content of the other, either 8-)

If you do architecture you probably need Revit Building. If you do MEP work you should get Revit Systems. If you do both you might be able to get away without Revit Building if you don't need site features or structural beams, braces, columns or beam systems.

Does this help?

A little bit, thx

I was told that there was a Norwegian localizer, but apparently it is at the moment a figment of someone’s imagination.

But to clarify my original question: The choice for me is either to get the Autodesk Building System, or Revit System.
And as far as I know, the ABS is based on the Architectural Desktop. So in this package you get AutoCAD, ADT with the ABS. And the AutoCAD and ADT are full versions.

So my question is: Does Revit System contain/come with the full Revit Building in the same way the Autodesk Building System comes with the full Architectural Desktop?
Ore is Revit System based on a Revit Building “light”?
Ore is Revit system a freestanding application with some of Revit Building’s functions?

Hi Norway. In my company, in Portugal, we are about to use a product named "Autodesk AutoCAD Revit Series - Systems Plus 2". It contains Revit Systems 2 (which contains some architectural and structural tools) and also Autodesk Building Systems, that runs on Architectural Desktop, that, in turn, runs on AutoCAD. So you can use each of these procuts individually: Revit Systems 2; ABS, Architectural Desktop, and AutoCAD.

But it does NOT include Revit Building or Structure.

Hi. Here's an article about differences between Revit Building and Revit Systems:
