Revit是Autodesk公司一套系列软件的名称。Revit系列软件是专为建筑信息模型(BIM)构建的，可帮助建筑设计师设计、建造和维护质量更好、能效更高的建筑。AutodeskRevit作为一种应用程序提供，它结合了AutodeskRevit Architecture、AutodeskRevit MEP和AutodeskRevit Structure软件的功能。

Digital-Tutors机构是号称全球最大的CG教程机构，顶级客户的优秀项目实例，被誉为教学和娱乐结合的最好的教程，RenderMan创建人称之为“完美的学习站点”，成立至今已经有12年之久，内容集中在视频制作和游戏制作两大板块，其机构完整的教学的理念，先进的技术支持（他们甚至开启了移动手机看教程的计划，支持IPAD/IPHONE/ANDROID），都让人耳目一新。尤其是多层级的教学难度设置，有趣的考试内容，时不时的竞赛，让DT成为非常活跃的一个CG机构。

Digital-Tutors Modeling Trusses in Revit

In this Revit tutorial we’ll go over several ways to work with trusses. We’ll start off with the basics and explore how to sketch and manipulate truss families that are available in Revit’s family library. We’ll learn how to adjust such parameters as truss height, structural members, panel width and even the rotation angle for each member.

Next we’ll create a simple, static truss family type in the structural truss family template. We’ll learn how to draw top and bottom chords as well as web members. We’ll also cover how to set up your truss so that it loads into the project environment properly.

Once we’ve become comfortable with the simple truss family, we’ll take it one step further and learn how to work with constraints and formulas to create a parametric truss that we can manipulate and flex.

By the end of this Revit training you’ll know how to work with truss families, as well as be able to use parametric modeling techniques to create customizable trusses for use in future projects as well.
