To date, Revit has not been popular in the Landscape Architecture sector of AEC consulting. Program features such as this eliminate contradictory construction documents and modifications that would pass unnoticed until the construction process! Projects involving multiple collaborators require the original author of a specific element to make changes, a preventive measure to eliminate editing of another’s work without notification. Changes made to one representation model are propagated to the other representations, reducing editing time and increasing efficiency. This keeps Revit drawings fully coordinated in terms of building, layout, and site objects depicted in these drawings.

It functions by creating a single central file, each user works on a local file (copy of central file) commanding individual consultants to work collaboratively. Revit is a brand of Building Information Modeling (hereafter BIM) software that has proven itself a powerful tool for the AEC industry. Recently, Kudela & Weinheimer has begun work on two projects that require the use of Revit, a Building Information Modeling program.
