Exam Day Tips!      

On the day of the exam - Read the instructions and choices VERY CAREFULLY. Do exactly as the instructions say (eg. Answer to two decimal places: 20.60).

If you do not understand what is being asked, look at command line & ribbon for hints.

Test has 35 Questions - Pass Mark is 28. Time is 2 hours = 3 mins per question.

These tests are very specific on its steps and terminology. Do exactly what is says.

Take your time. Don't rush the question, and use the full 2 hour time allocation!

User Interface The test will ask you to identify specific areas of the user interface. Eg. Where is the View Control bar Located? This is completed with a screen shot of the interface, and a courser click to identify the area. A good place to review the interface is in the Revit Help. This can be found at Link: 2015 Revit UI Help

General Notes 

Building Elements are used to create a building design. There are 5 classes of building elements: Host, Component, Datum, Annotation and View.



Building Elements fall into 3 Categories: Model, View and Annotation.



Revit Elements are separated into 3 different types of Elements: Model, Datum and View-Specific.



Users should be able to understand the difference between a hosted and non-hosted component. A hosted component is a component that must be placed or constrained to another element. Eg. a door or window is hosted by a wall. You should be able to identify what components can be hosted by which elements. Walls are non-hosted.

Whether or not a component is hosted is defined by the template used for creating the component. A Wall, Floor, Ceiling or Face can be a host.



Some components are level-based, such as furniture, site components, plumbing fixtures, casework, roofs and walls. When you insert a level-based component, it is constrained to that level and can only be moved within that infinite plane. Should be familiar with how to use Element and Type Properties of components in order to locate and modify information.



There are 3 kinds of families in Revit Architecture: o

System Families

o

Loadable Families

o

In-Place Families



System Families are: walls, ceilings, stairs, floors etc. These are families that can only be created by using an existing family, duplicating, and redefining. These families are loaded into a project using a project template.



Revit allows you to assign OmniClass numbers to Revit loadable families for use in schedules. There may be a question in the exam where you will need to identify or assign the OmniClass number in a family. See workflow below.

Revit Architecture Certified Professional Exam Guide

(Pick door > Edit Family)



Room Calculation Points are used to make loadable families “room aware.” Once you enable the room calculation point, the family will display the correct room in the project schedule. There may be a question in the exam where you will be asked to adjust the room calculation point on a loadable family. See workflow below.

Legends Legends provide a pictorial representation of architectural and building elements along with descriptive text. Legends are considered views, like schedules. Typical Legends include: 

Annotation Legend. Displays sheet annotations such as section heads, level markers, spot elevation marks, elevation symbols, keynote symbol, revision tag, element tags, and other symbols that do not represent model objects. Each symbol has an associated piece of descriptive text. All symbols are shown at printed size.



Model Symbol Legend. Displays symbolic representations of model objects with some descriptive text. Typical elements are electrical fixtures, plumbing fixtures, mechanical equipment, and site objects.



Line Styles Legend. Displays a line in a selected line style and text identifying what that line style represents on drawings. Examples include fire rating lines, property lines, setback lines, electric wiring, plumbing, utilities, and center lines.



Materials Legend. Displays a sample of a cut or surface pattern and text identifying the material associated with that pattern.



Phasing. Shows a section of wall drawn with a selected graphic override and identifying text.

Legends can be added to multiple sheets. Any elements that can be placed in drafting views, such as detail lines, text, dimensions, and filled regions, can be placed in a legend.

Legend views are unique to each project, and therefore cannot be transferred from one project to another.

You can use legend views as graphical palettes, which means that you can select a component in a legend view and use the Create Similar or Match Type tools to place the component in another view.

Note: A component that is placed in a legend does not count as an additional instance of the component in the building model and thus is not added to the number of instances of that component listed on a schedule.
