Making Full Use of the Power of Lookup Tables
Kelli Lubeley – Enceptia
Elizabeth Mierendorf – Dewberry
MP1294 This class shows users how Autodesk® Revit® MEP building design software uses lookup tables to
automatically size pipe, conduit, and cable tray fittings properly. We look at how lookup tables are formatted and how
the Revit family references the lookup table. Users will better understand the role of lookup tables in Revit and be able
to use lookup tables when creating and editing families
.
LearningObjectives
At the end of this class, you will be able to:
Identify and describe the concepts behind lookup tables and explain how lookup tables benefit the design
process
Create custom families that reference lookup tables for automated design
Use formulas with lookup tables for accurate design
Explain how using lookup tables improves workflow
