- Complete Revit Course for Beginners - 9 tutorials to learn Revit fast! (part 1/9)
Check out the full Revit course: successfularch...
In this full Revit course for beginners, you will learn Autodesk Revit. In 9 tutorials, you are going to learn how to design and model confidently using the industry’s leading 3D BIM software, Revit.
In part 1, you'll learn how to set up a Revit model, learn about the interface and navigating around Revit, be introduced to levels and set them up for a three storey residential project, learn about phasing and insert + scale reference images such as floorplans.
If you have ever watched a Successful Archi Student UA-cam video, you would have noticed that Kyle is engaging, informative and entertaining.
His fast-paced, to-the-point teaching style is aided by concise explanations, animations, images and exciting story telling.
What is Revit?
Revit is a BIM (building information modelling) software that creates intelligent 3D models of buildings which can be used to produce construction documentation drawings and design presentations.
Revit is a building-specific solution for design and documentation and is currently the industry’s leading software for BIM.
Revit is used for conceptual design, 3D parametric modelling, detailed design documentation, multi-discipline coordination, modelling building components, analysing and simulating systems and structures, iterating and visualising architectural designs, building performance analysis and more.
Why learn Revit?
Revit not only allows architects to design and model 3D solutions, but the BIM software also allows for seamless collaboration between disciplines which makes working with structural engineers, other designers, and MEP consultants incredibly efficient.
Why learn Revit with Kyle?
Let’s face it. Learning new software is often complicated and difficult. Doing it by yourself makes it even harder, but it doesn’t need to be that way. In this course, you will be learning from a Master’s student who has practical Revit experience across three architectural firms (which all use Revit as a main design and documentation tool). You will be able to follow along to learn the skills and confidence you need to use the software efficiently in a professional setting.
You can spend days, weeks or months learning Revit by yourself, and not necessarily learning it the right way. In Kyle’s 4-hour course, you can fast-track that journey to gain the skills to design and model in Revit at a professional level.
Most online Revit tutorials or courses are boring, slow going and demonstrate incorrect practices. Trust me, I’ve found that out the hard way. If you’ve watched Kyle’s videos before, you’d know that these Revit tutorials are fun, fast and easy to follow.
If you want to learn Revit the in a fun, fast and easy way, check out the full Revit course (100+ Revit tutorials) on my website: successfularch...

Hi I am wondering where to get the image of the floor plan to follow these videos on youtube?
THE BEST
Hy
For someone as dumb as me that sucks at figuring things out. I'm thankful that your making this and making it easy to understand and not pressing buttons that nobody knows about without telling us.
Glad you find it helpful! Thanks for watching
Aussies are my favorite people to learn from now. First Andrew Price(Blender Guru) and now you. The jolly attitude and sense of humor during these lessons is love
Hahaha awesome! Thank you so much. I’m glad you enjoy the vids :p
I can't thank you enough for the stuff and effort you're putting out here. as a student you are breaking down the material in the simplest way possible. If you have a patreon where we can support you, please let us know
My absolute pleasure! I don't have a patreon but if you feel like supporting me you can check out the courses on my website. successfularchistudent.com/courses-for-architecture-students/
Otherwise, commenting and liking my videos is more support than I could ever ask for. Thank you!
Thank you for doing this brother. As someone who has only started learning Revit in the last 2 months, this series will be incredibly useful ❤️
I'm so glad! Thank you for your support
is project files free?
I use Revit a LOT at work to review models and basically flail like a drowning person. Tis will be super helpful! I'm looking forward to finishing the whole series.
I have not seen the entire video but I stopped to say that I really like the way explain every thing its easy and simple and I love how every minute you say its not scary thank you
Thank you so much Engi! I appreciate the comment
thanks bro. You were tremendous. You explained everything very clearly. I am a 30year user of ACAD from Dos time Acad 9 or 8. Green screen and you were easy to listen to. Thanks. From Trinidad And Tobago.
Kyle, i want to say thank you for uploading this series of Revit Tutorials. Being a floor & truss designer, i am trying to learn Revit so i can start designing homes for myself. One question i had tho, was the 1st height. I noticed you mention the porch/front entrance being 0mm but then the 1st level being 1400mm which was based off 7 (200mm) risers. At 21:22 you can see the floor plan & it shows 4 risers up to the landing/ 1st level. That being said , the 1st floor is actually 800mm above the front entrance. Let me know if i am understanding this correctly. I would greatly appreciate your response. Thank you nonetheless. Love from Canada 🇨🇦
@kylesinko
I really liked your approach of teaching, where in the beginning itself you took off the load from viewers mind, as Revit is a complex software and just focusing on what is Important. Specifically the tabs. Kudos. Am new to revit and am following your tutorials, its so quick and easy to understand. Thanks.
I'm so glad to hear Kamal! Thank you for your kind words. I hope you enjoy watching more of my videos. Cheers
Thank you so much for these quick start videos. There are so many videos out there that go too fast for a newbie!! Thankyou, thank you you are a star!
I think another way to find the height from photo is checking the dimensions of one of the windows from the plan, scale the photo using the window as a point and measure the height
for the blurry brick measurement. possibly use a photo editer and bring up the "pop" and or details and sharpness
Seriously, what a fantastic resource for the community Kyle!! Love the energy too, something you don't find that often in tutorials hahah
p.s. Still have no idea how you've managed to create such quality stuff on top of uni and work hahah 😅
Thanks a lot Alvin! It's been a juggling act trying to get this out, for sure 😅
@@kylesinko is project files free?
The time has come! Love your work man, keep doing your thing and this page will blow up!
Thanks a lot Tim. Really appreciate your support
possibily the clearest tutorial I have ever seen
Dude, I study architecture in Warsaw and we had half a course for revit and I saw so much potential but I didn’t really have a reason to pursue it more. But this is great!
Also, I’m very thankful you put in so much time to create such great videos in general! Keep going man!
Thank you so much for your support and kind words! All the best Max
when you are calculating height of wall based on number of bricks, don't forget the mortar joints, usually 10mm.
Correct, good pick up thanks!
You deliver the learning points really clearly and you're not boring so this series is fantastic!
Nice to hear Jay, thanks a lot! I hope you enjoy it
I jumped onto your course just understand the intricacies of Revit and modelling. I am a beginnner and I believe the only Electrical engineer in the comments. Lol..Great stuff mate!
Hey I’m a 3rd year arch student I just wanted to tell y’all thank you for this video

Best Tutorials on Revit I'v seen. Your style of teaching is brilliant. Can you also do a tutorial on Revit for interior Designers.... please.
Thanks a lot MB! That might be something I do in the future, though it won't be for awhile as I have a lot of other content planned :D
Put this plan in the description or comment section so that we can also download that one 😊
I am a Revit Lover and your work on Revit =Super. Gracias!!
Awesome! Thanks a lot 🧡
I'm so grateful I found your channel, The beginner's series is so so helpful. Thanks a lot for all your effort to make these videos🙇♀
You're very welcome! Glad you've been able to stop by :)
Finally! A tutorial that doesn't have the mic shoved up against the guys throat so you can hear every time they gulp. I swear every Autodesk tutorial I have looked at so far I've had to close because of that sound.
I take great pride in not swallowing my mic while I record - thanks for noticing! Cheers 😂🙏
All I can say is Thank you for sharing this online!
One of the BIM courses at my uni is absolutely full, so this is really helpful in the meantime!
That's a bummer but glad to hear you're finding this helpful!
I have completed my civil engineering in india at my local university.. learning these courses in an institute but felt like i was far behind..
Cant thank you enough for these videos.
Ps: planning to do masters in Australia .
Please do suggest me few ideas or pathways for immigration and immigrant students (im clueless). Anyones input is welcome.😁
Thank you for your comment! I’m not too sure about your situation but perhaps someone else can help? Cheers
Good Day, Mate. I can not thank you enough for your tutorial on how clear and easy is to follow. Cheers, and keep up the good work.
Thank you very much! Ps I like the bike in your profile picture, cheers mate!
Coming from Archicad and Revit seems to be much more detail ! it doea intimidating at first, but I'll try...
Maybe i switch to Revit as my main BIM tools
You are an amazing human being for doing this. Thank you
You are so kind! Thank you
Hello mate. I can't find the generic floor in revit. Where can i download it?
Thanks so much, i'm re-teaching myself Revit and this has been very helpful!
Thanks a lot! Glad you enjoyed it. Feel free to watch the other lessons of the course on my channel (:
Best Revit Course video ever! super super helpful! I used to be afraid of learning Revit, your explanation is so clear and good, which gives me much confidence! Thank you!
So glad to hear Huang! Feel free to check out all my other Revit lessons. Cheers!
Lol, had the exact same experience when I was 10yo. Ran to the shed to get something. In the meantime my mom closed to sliding door. And I was in full sprint on the way back. Actually jumped the final part, planning to jump inside. Big bang. Nose first on the glass. Rebounded back 2m. And then sitting on the garden tiles all surprised like "wtf happened". xD
Hahaha I know your pain brother! Hope you recovered both physically and mentally 😆
I really like your video with candid explanation. Next SEM i gonna study engineering drawing with BIM... Thks for sharing
Wow this is amazing man, I really learned from you! Keep going man I really love your videos, I'm learning and having fun at the same time haha! Stay solid bro!
p.s. Coming from an architecture student in the Philippines!
Awesome, thank you! Glad to hear you're enjoying it :)
Just finished learning Archicad, is Revit similar?
Excellent work, Kyle; easy and proactive. Good luck with your venture.
Thank you so much! I appreciate that Steve
Amazing teaching style and the best and the clearest tutorials I have ever found. Thank you!
That means a lot, thank you very much!
hello, Im trying this on revit 2024, however, i am not able to create the new project file for architectural models. Its showing me Metric Multipurpose which i assume also includes the architectural purposes. This has made the whole first step complicated for me in the sense of creating levels. Can you please hep me out with this. thankyou
I can't find the files on your website
You sir are a generous person.
For New Builds, all the dimensions will be provided right? I'm on 26:52, where you are mentioning estimations of an already existing building.
90 mm but treat it as 100mm, because of the cementing material between the blocks. So 34x100 is 3.4m.
Any recommendations for tutorials for structural/civil engineers? I have used revit before in architecture courses, but I am in school for civil engineering and looking to work on a extracurricular project and I need the details of that strutural tab
I bought the Fruity Edition and tNice tutorials tutorial helped out a lot!
Worth watching. Especially for a beginners. Kudos
Cheers mate!
where can i get the same floorplan
You can get access through the course on my website, cheers!

I appreciate your tutorials. Coming back after years this has been so helpful. I have a dumb question. I have deleted the properties tab. Simple X I accidently clicked on. How do I restore the properties tab?
Hi Catherine, thanks so much for the comment. Hopefully you've found my video already but if not this is how to bring back the properties panel in 20 seconds ua-cam.com/video/wTy-kEJyPN0/v-deo.html
Cheers
Appreciate the tutorial! I've been looking for a simple tutorial of Revit, as I do not have time to watch a 22 part course given by my university 😅
Haha awesome! Glad you found it useful. If you can be bothered, I do have another 8 parts to this course available on youtube 😂
@@kylesinko If ill have some extra time Ill for sure look into it, cheers!
Hi Kyle, if i purchase the tutorial, will this include the software use as i do not have Revit on my laptop. I am planning to purchase the three. Been into design and construction and just familiar with the AUTOCADD. Thanks for your reply.
hey. I'm so grateful I found your channel. how can find and download the plan?
Hi thank you! You can find them on my website when you purchase the courses. Thanks again

Exactly what I needed! Thank you so much, big fan btw!!
Thanks a lot Aidan. Always appreciate your support!
I cant pay for the course from sudan and i need the files to complete the project with you🙁🚶🏻
Please provide the floor plan image
Hi, could we take the height reference from the picture with elevations ?
your tutorial videos are helpful.. thank you so much...
You are most welcome! Thank you
Amazing how you share your knowledge for free. Thank you very much.
It’s my pleasure! Thanks for watching
What's the language selected by Australians when downloading Revit? ENU for the USA or ENG for the United Kingdom? Thank you for the lessons! You make Revit look easy.
Ive also used windows. they come in standard sizes. ill draw a line the length of a window size then copy and "stack" to get longer lengths
Hey very cool... Do you have as well for landscape architect?
I never had an architectural template as an option in the 1st place? please help

I love to use revit, it's really nice.
Keep up the good work of sharing your knowledge, God Bless 😇👍
You are most welcome Sukhpreet. Thanks for your ongoing support :)
You are more welcome 😇💐
You've made Revit fun to learn.
Where can I download the picture of the house plan so that i just follow through step by step?
Dear Sir, is there any video on Revit MEP by you? Thanks
hi, thanks for great videos. I could not find the files on website! is it still there?
You are so welcome Simin. They can be accessed when purchasing the course. successfularchistudent.com/revit
Cheers
I am really geared toward mechanical, but I am guessing that watching your videos here will give me the basics so learning mechanical would be pretty easy, is this a correct assumption?
Correct, always best to start with the basics. This course will provide you with a good overview of the software
What's your rendering software?
And Is Enscape a good software?
I mainly use enscape, as you'll see towards the end of this course. It's the best for practice for how quick it is to get a nice looking render.
@@kylesinko if you say so...... Installing Enscape...
Thank you friend for this course.
@@danielwhite5705 You're welcome :) All the best
I’m in school right now and have a terrible teacher whose teaching is Revit. He made have the class leave, made some women cry because he’s so fast and impatient and doesn’t like to answer questions and leaves us with half done projects…
I’m actually following your steps in school after hours and doing this project to put in a portfolio… is the project complete with a landscape at the end? I only now started your video…
I’m sorry to hear about that! I too had some useless impatient teachers which encouraged me to make this series. You will have a complete house and site model upon completion of this course
I’m an interior designer worked on CAD most my career of 15 years. This really helped getting my feet wet for Revit projects at work. Thank you for very clear and comprehensive first tutorial!
That's awesome! Thanks for tuning in, I'm glad it was helpful
Im in exactly the same boat, been working on CAD/Sketchup for years and they say you need to unlearn what you've learned to be able to do Revit, hench why I was always scared of exploring this beast but the more you get the hang of it the easier it becomes. Especially self tough becomes cloudy sometimes, your video put me at ease!!
Great, thanks a dozen Friend. I found Your Channel at last
Hey buddy, thanks for this. Well spoken and laid out!!!
how to hide text and unhide on revit?
Very interesting and informative. My boss wants me get familiar with Revit and you make this look easy. My only negative comment is the use of foul language. Could do without that. People have forgotten how to express themselves without using foul language.
Thanks a lot for the kind comment. I realise my language is a bit extra. Hope it doesn't distract the content too much
It's industrial language, not foul, lol makes me laugh and actually drives home the point with some humor, so you'll be less likely to forget it. Now learning Revit for the first time so, I'm ecstatic, keep on going I'm right behind learning all there is.cheers!
IS it possible to lock these levels to prevent the problem?
please make it possible foe me or people like me who cant buy from the site to download photos of the house...because lam in another country
Where can i get revit
minimum price for the software is $100, but i tNice tutorialnk the best edition for ho producers is the $200 version. TNice tutorials is not cheap.
Dude you're hillarious. I need this to learn
I'm glad you enjoy my teaching style. Thanks :D
thanks a lot master. this is what the best way i want to learn
Glad to hear, cheers!
The kitchen in 17:56 😍
Hello,
How can I convert a file based on an HVAC template (architecture or structure) into a file based on an electrical template.
Thanks
Hi, unless you're really set on using the HVAC template, I would probably just look for a different electrical template.
Cheers
I cant believe this is free
Greetings, I use sketchup so how can we make same mouse settings for both revit and sketchup?
Great video!
Thank you very much
Thank you brother!
My pleasure!
