Learn how to implement Phases in your Revit projects to develop complex, phased projects within a single building model.

What you'll learn
Description
Why take this course
When doing a renovation project, you'll have to deal with the existing
structure. The existing conditions need to be modeled along with the
new or renovated work that is to take place. Distinguishing between
new, old, and parts that need to be demolished can be tricky, but
Brandon Gibbs will teach you all about how to manage this in our Revit
Renovation and Phases course.
Revit Phases allow you to model existing conditions and then show the
new work that is to be performed, including elements that need to be
removed or temporally added for construction. Each phase represents a
distinct time period in the life of the project. Time is included as a
parametric variable within the Revit model, therefore the creation of
phases is much easier than in a traditional 2D CAD environment. Phases
in Revit enable you to develop complex, phased projects within a
single building model, even if those phases involve complex
renovations to existing buildings.
Learn how to tackle a renovation project in Revit
Phases are a great tool in Revit to filter elements by stages in a
project. The phases essentially represent a sequence of realization in
a project, from the past to the future. However, the phasing needs of
various professionals are likely not the same. Architects can require
many more phases to manage the construction stages than mechanical
engineers who arrive later in the process. The phases will be used to
specify the stage of creation and demolition of the different objects
of a project, as well as to control the different views of the project
(plans, elevations, 3D, etc).
Phasing in Revit allows adding the time dynamic into the design process,
allowing for a more organized structure of each of the elements that
compose your design resulting in increased efficiency in your project
management.

Phase Filters
Phase Filters are the way we control how certain phases are
displayed in a view. You can imagine it as a rule that you apply
to control the display of elements based on their phase status.
This way you can control the information presented in model views
and the building model can be used to facilitate design and
visualization at each of the stages in the project lifecycle.
Graphic Overrides
In each view, you have the ability to override the graphic display
for a selected category of elements. You can adjust the projection
display of lines and patterns, the appearance of cut lines and
patterns, apply halftones, and change the material displayed for
each phase status.

When working with phases it's important to understand the phase
status of an element. Each element in a project has 2 phase
parameters: the phase in which the element was created and the
phase in which the element was demolished. The combination of
these properties results in 4 possible phase statuses: Existing,
New, Demolished, and Temporary.
Time and cost management
Mastering Revit Phases when working on a renovation project will
significantly reduce communication errors. It provides a clear
roadmap by identifying what building elements are tagged for
demolition, which ones are to be newly placed, and which ones are
to be left in place. Start learning today and save time and cost
on your next project by understanding how to use this powerful
feature in Revit.
