Introducing "Amp Up Your Modeling" - a live training series for electrical subcontractors focused on using Revit the right way from the start to avoid costly mistakes later.
In this kickoff session, "Electrical Revit Setup: The 3 Things You Can't mess Up," the host, Jared Sutliff, breaks down how to properly set up your Revit projects using real-world examples, focusing on the decisions that lead to broken models, coordination issues, and rework if handled incorrectly.
