- Create specific families, including in-place families, profiles, annotations, and parameters.
- This guide also contains discipline-specific practices for families, including doors, windows, railings, pipe fittings, light fixtures, gusset plates, and built-up columns.
Prerequisites
Attendees should be comfortable with fundamentals of Autodesk Revit software as taught in Cadpro’s Revit Fundamentals courses. Knowledge of basic techniques such as creating a standard element, copying, and moving elements, and creating and working with views, etc is required.
Online attendees will need to:

- Download and install the Microsoft Teams application rather than joining through the weblink for improved reliability.
- Have two screens set up (one screen for software, one screen for exercise steps)
- Have the 2024 version of the software installed and running
- Have a headset and mic (mic is optional as you can use the text window to communicate)
