Revit Architecture: Doors and Windows Tutorial

Introduction

04_03_DoorsWindows_01

In the last tutorial we saw how the Wall Opening tool can be used to create very basic apertures in Revit Walls. For the vast majority of the time the openings that are created in Walls are part of a Door or Window assembly. In Revit, we have dedicated tools for creating Doors and Windows respectively. In their actual operation, both tools are nearly identical. The only difference being the category of object that they create- hence me covering the use of both tools in the same tutorial.
