Wow.. what a great day for you... I sat on my Revit program for a year.. but nothing happened until I decided to just dig in, make mistakes, and learn.. For my first model I decided to recreate a residential project that I had previously created in AutoCAD. My early Revit models were aweful. I wouldnt show them to anybody, let alone a client. Each time I tried, I would run into stumbling blocks...things I didnt understand. (So commit yourself to find the answers...so many resources here in this forum, youtube and others as well). I'm still not proficient enough to create construction drawings, but I have found that I can easily produce accurate concept drawings that help me deliver a great value to my clients. Learn something new each day.
In the Revit class I teach -
1) Students start with a playhouse
2) Go on to generate a model for a single story residence, the generate presentation and working drawings for it
3) Do the same for a double story residence
4) Finish the semester with a commercial / industrial project
Find yourself a good book to use as a guide.
For my first project, I was model manager and HVAC designer of an MEP project. Multiple models linked to each other. I dove right into the deep end and it wasn't pretty but I learned a lot very quickly. I wouldn't recommend that approach to anyone.
I'd recommend finding a tutorial that you like. There are tons of them out there. Some formal training would be a good idea, too.
@RobDraw... I havent done any formal training yet although I would like to. I was concerned about taking classes, and not know enough to really make it worth while.. I could be wrong, but everybody learns differently. Now that I have at least a basic understanding of the BIM process, I think taking some classes would be very helpful.
