Autodesk Revit 2015 R2
Release Date: 2014-09-17
With Autodesk® Revit® 2015 R2, Autodesk Maintenance and Desktop Subscription customers get access now to new features that add powerful capabilities, make Revit perform faster, and can improve modeling productivity. Fully compatible with Revit 2015 releases, Revit 2015 R2 installs without disrupting ongoing work in Revit 2015.
Power: Revit 2015 R2 includes new features that enable you to do more with Revit.
- Share more accurately predicted energy performance information in custom dashboards with Project Solon integrated into Revit.
- Use existing geometry in a linked IFC model as a reference for dimensions, alignment, snapping, and hosting of some families in a Revit model.
- Troubleshoot models better with the Reveal Constraints mode making all dimension alignment constraints in a view visible.
- Explore visual programming with the Dynamo interface for computational design which now installs with Revit so you can more easily enhance and extend the power of the Revit API.
Performance: Autodesk Revit R2 meets requests for faster software performance with the goal of making your work easier.
- Edit and regenerate complex toposurfaces, subregions, and building pads.
- Get better performance of the energy analytical model in Revit, with Revit R2 using less memory when analyzing large models.
- Experience faster updates to views that contain multiple instances of families.
- See faster display of Revit links within views.
Productivity: You’ll welcome multiple enhancements in Revit R2 designed to improve your modeling and work productivity.
- Work in perspective views, making quick adjustments without having to change views with some modeling capabilities now available in perspective views.
- Save more time by editing multiple wall joins together
- Find content more quickly with Search capabilities in the Type Selector and all drop-down lists.
- Navigate PDFs exported from Revit more quickly with hyperlinked views.

Autodesk Site Designer Extension for Revit 2015
Release Date: 2014-09-17
The Autodesk® Site Designer Extension for Revit® 2015 software helps architects, designers, and planners convey building site planning concepts to engineers. Site Designer runs inside Revit software and uses native families, components, and toposurfaces, so site designs become part of the overall model. You can model alternatives for mass grading, building pads, streets, sidewalks, parking lots, and retaining walls all within the Revit environment. More easily convert a sketched line into a street, sidewalk, curb and gutter, retaining wall or parking lot in the model. You can manipulate Site Designer components using editing tools to change their location, elevation, grade or geometry, and Site Designer automatically updates and maintains the underlying toposurface.
- Report and schedule areas, volumes, and cut and fill volumes to better understand the impact of site design changes on requirements to move or add fill.
- Iterate conceptual designs and create more realistic visuals of the building site by incorporating grading features directly into the Revit model.
- Better communicate conceptual design ideas about the building site to engineers who can then complete the detailed site design using professional civil engineering tools like Autodesk® AutoCAD® Civil 3D® software.
- Share the appearance of site plan designs for better communication with everyone involved in the project, including owners, architects, designers, planners and civil engineering firms.
- Share a site model between Revit and Civil 3D through Land XML files, improving collaboration between architects and engineers working on a project.
- More quickly add design elements to your site such as berms and drainage swales, minimizing the time required to mass grade a site and to try alternatives at the design development stage.
- Special terrain families within Site Designer provide you with parameters that control widths, cut and fill slopes and other projection settings.
- Locate hardscape components such as streets, intersections, sidewalks, curbs and walls that can follow the existing terrain and have controlled elevations and slopes - all while the toposurface is automatically maintained.
Central European Content Extension for Autodesk Revit MEP 2015
Release Date: 2014-06-24

eTransmit for Autodesk Revit 2015
Release Date: 2014-04-18
With eTransmit for Autodesk® Revit® 2015 software products, you can copy a Revit model and dependent files to a single folder for Internet transmission. You can transmit any model that has been upgraded to Revit Release 2012 or later and saved. With eTransmit for Autodesk Revit, you can:
- Copy and detach a Revit model and associated files to a single folder for internet transmission. This removes the typical error messages when you copy central files using the operating system.
- Locate dependent files automatically and include them in the transmittal folder, helping to reduce the possibility of error. All dependent files are automatically converted to use relative paths so the dependent files can be located by the model.
- Choose to include related dependent files such as linked Revit models, CAD files, DWF™ markups, decal images, and external keynote files. You can transmit any Revit (.rvt) model that has been upgraded to be compatible with a Revit 2012 software product or later.
- Choose to Upgrade the Revit (.rvt) model and linked models to the current release.
- Choose to remove unused families, materials, and other objects from the Revit projects to reduce file size.
- Transmit models that are using file-based worksharing or server-based worksharing. eTransmit for Revit can also work with non-workshared Revit models.
Autodesk Revit Server 2015
Release Date: 2014-04-23
Autodesk® Revit® Server 2015 software enables design teams to more easily collaborate, helping to keep team members coordinated as they work on a project over a distributed wide area network (WAN). Revit Server helps maintain a seamlessly integrated collection of Revit central models on a single server that users can access from local servers. Built-in redundancy helps protect work in the case of WAN connectivity loss.
Revit Server is part of the installations of Autodesk® Revit® 2015*, Autodesk® Revit® Architecture 2015, Autodesk® Revit® MEP 2015, and Autodesk® Revit® Structure 2015 software. It is provided here as a stand-alone application for your convenience.
