hi to everyone, I am new to the forum, I press that I used “search” and I have seen the various discussions, but I don’t seem to have found a fairly updated discussion about what I’m looking for.
I would be interested in increasing my knowledge of cad 3d in architectural context.
I am very well studying on paper manuals and for the moment I am making the basics on:
autocad 2012 complete guide, santapaga/trasi, apogee;
the great guide autocad 2010 modeling 3d and rendering, pruners, mondadori.

I wanted to ask if you could tell me a manual to study, in the library I saw “modelling 3d with autocad 2013, nale, apogeo”.

a heard thanks to who will answer me.
 
thanks to the advice, for a long time lurko the forum and I very much consider your comments.

I had excluded this book because I thought it was dated, but if autocad in the 3d did not have great evolutions then I will be oriented on this text.
 
speaking of 3d the revolution was with the passage from autocad 2006 to 2007. in later versions, until 2012, many improvements but few news. 2010 introduced "organic" modeling which is nothing but the expensive smooth mesh of 3ds or subdivision surface of lightwave
 
Hi, I'm accusing this discussion. . .
I am looking for a text for 3d architectural modeling, so from a project composed of plant and prospectives get a 3d and then maybe make a rendering... Would you tell me if there are specific texts for this?

I omitted that the program I would use is autocad...
 
In my opinion devoting time to learning autocads for modeling 3d and rendering buildings is to throw away money. Anyway, are you only looking for guides in Italian or is it good in English?
 
certain revit is more suitable to do this, but I have autocad 2012, the revit I don't have it, so I would rather learn to model in 3d first with autocad and maybe if I need a day to go to revit, because I think that once learned modeling in 3d there should not be big difficulties to pass from one program to another... Then maybe I'm wrong... I know
 
Then maybe I'm wrong. . .
mistakes! in autocad models, in revit projects! !
when I also "modellavo" in autocad, at every slight variation were blasphemies flying, without talking about the time you actually use to "model". you must first of all have closed polylines well divided by layers for walls, pierce the above, insert the fixtures, stairs, floors, roofs...all as solid to themselves. change the position of a wall, at cascade you have to change the floors, roofs and maybe vertical connections and fixtures. to shoot!
revit reasons for objects, not for geometries. then the modification made to the wall is reflected on every object that has to do with the above. Moreover the construction of the building takes place "as you would do in the yard", so also in the drafts of project you will not have (if you have worked well) surprises in the execution phase.
 
It will be that I am a little allergic to manuals, I suggest you follow the many tutorials that are on the net.

If you only have that ok, but they are two completely different programs conceptually as a way to operate, it is not as you think.
 
I understand what you want to tell me, I saw what is revit and actually with autocad there is a lot of substantial difference. . .
Let me clarify some things:
- with revit can I make all the work of a project, from 2d to 3d? i.e. plants, sections, brochures etc.
- with revit I can also design the structures, as programs aimed only to do that, like sap2000 etc.?
 
- with revit can I make all the work of a project, from 2d to 3d? i.e. plants, sections, brochures etc.
Of course! It's his job! I repeat: with autocad designs/models; with revit projects!
- with revit I can also design the structures, as programs aimed only to do that, like sap2000 etc.?
Yes and no; revit automatically generates, starting from structural elements, the analytical unifilar model. then you can pre-elaborate it on revit or Sul cloud or switch everything to a solutor, such as robot, for the actual calculation of the finite elements.
 
It's all clearer now, thanks to both of us.
beautiful projects.... a friend of mine architect realized an idea for a contest of a hospital, did everything in autocad if I don't remember badly rendering, and the result was like these... is it possible or I remember badly, maybe the rendering did it with another program?
 
It is possible, but the beautiful thing is that these are not renderings:wink: ... is revit that produces these representations, absolutely in real time (including shadows)
 
Keep in mind that revit, being a design software, allows you to do and manage procedures that in autocad you forget, such as the yellow and red in automatic, the esplosi and the different design solutions (see image).

Ah, I forgot the cherry on the cake. apart from the structural calculation, all we talked about you do also with revit lt that costs a third of autocad (we are around 1400€)! So if you're obligated for any reason to use autocad sin, otherwise I would make a little thought. . .
...finished promotional message:tongue:
 
Wow...
the problem may be that in studies where I work, they don't even know what revit is, they only do in autocad.... so the trouble can be this.. but for the rest know how to use autocad 2d and 3d and then revit is definitely an added value to be able to make the most of...
Do you recommend me to follow a course for revit?
 
What's the matter? revit, being autodesk, reads and writes the dwg quietly. I assure you that the vast majority of studies do not even know what the 3d autocad is. fat that cola if they use sketchup.
a bad course or a good manual don't do you, then you see... but be aware that the future is this, not autocad
