Revit training courses in Lahore
Autodesk Revit is a building information modelling software tool for architects, landscape architects, structural engineers, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) engineers, designers and contractors. The original software was developed by Charles River Software, founded in 1997, renamed Revit Technology Corporation in 2000, and acquired by Autodesk in 2002.
Building Design
The software allows users to design a building and structure and its components in 3D, annotate the model with 2D drafting elements, and access building information from the building model's database.[1] Revit is 4D building information modeling capable with tools to plan and track various stages in the building's lifecycle, from concept to construction and later maintenance and/or demolition.

Company history
Charles River Software was founded in Newton, Massachusetts, on October 31, 1997, by Leonid Raaz and Irwin Jungles, key developers of PTC's Pro/Engineer software for mechanical design, with the intent of bringing the power of parametric modeling to the building industry (PTC had previously tried and failed to market its recently acquired Reflex software to the construction sector).
Several software
With funding from venture capitalists Atlas Venture and North Bridge Venture Partners, Raaz and Jungles hired several software developers and architects and began developing Revit in C++ on the Microsoft Windows platform. In 1999 they hired Dave Lemont as CEO and recruited board members Jon Hirsch tick, founder of SolidWorks, and Arlo Wolford, founder of CMD Group.
Revit Technology Corporation
The company was renamed Revit Technology Corporation in January 2000. Autodesk, best known for its AutoCAD line of products, purchased Revit Technology Corporation for US$133 million in 2002. The purchase allowed more research, development and improvement of the software.
Revit platform
With their Revit platform, Autodesk is a significant player in the BIM market together with Tekla Structures Trimble, Bentley Systems and the Nemetschek group (owner of Graph iSOFT's BIM application Archibald, plus solutions including Allan and Vector works), among others.
