We have three copies in the office. My personal one is falling apart because of constant use. It is an excellent reference for those who is starting. GCS suggested tagging and parameters was an absolutely vital. I was looking for similar 2012 version… <br /><br />Thank you so much for excellent work.<br /><br />VladimirVladimirnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-4617182644214323002012-04-06T05:52:56.427-07:002012-04-06T05:52:56.427-07:00Aw, shucks...making me blush! :)Aw, shucks...making me blush! :)Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14230364057800484763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-71580465953136093292012-04-06T04:25:04.092-07:002012-04-06T04:25:04.092-07:00The Revit Structure book was and still is the best...The Revit Structure book was and still is the best resource for Revit Structure- I would LOVE to see someone pick it up and update it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-72880295190972759932012-04-05T21:38:03.875-07:002012-04-05T21:38:03.875-07:00Steve, I still cherish the AU 2005 lab handout &qu...Steve, I still cherish the AU 2005 lab handout "Building a better door" (if I recall the name correctly). That's how I learned to build families! I spent a weekend with a work loaner laptop, laying on my stomach on the carpet, going through it step by step and light bulbs going off over my head. Whenever someone asks me about learning the family editor, I just share a copy of that PDF ;) It's not you Steve, promise...let's write a kick-ass, short and sweet Family Building book someday.Dave Baldacchinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00431940617680243953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-36377782521988581282012-04-05T18:57:12.898-07:002012-04-05T18:57:12.898-07:00Thanks for the confidence building!

It was a still is great reference.<br /><br />I have harvested your AU material in the past. <br /><br />Wiley or some other enterprising group of indivduals (AUGI ?)should publish it as an e-book for a much reduced realistic fee.cadalothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09677438790709042867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-51439461399475784602012-04-05T15:40:55.230-07:002012-04-05T15:40:55.230-07:00Steve,

The market is somewhat saturated, except for middle and advanced level topics.<br /><br />3. The older the version the better they tend to get for beginners.<br /><br />I don't have my copies of your books at the moment so I could read the comments I wrote while reading them, but I'm sure they're mostly positive!<br /><br />Again, rest assured it's not you bro! ;-)<br /><br />Emmanuelcaddguruhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10084182088689315133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-74007444346508582572012-04-05T13:37:58.770-07:002012-04-05T13:37:58.770-07:00I used the revit structure book extensively, for a...I used the revit structure book extensively, for a while. It was an excellent book. Im beyond the scope of the book now. (Hint Hint, no help for advanced topics other than blogs) One could still probably use that book to get started pretty effectively. <br /><br />Our company would probably buy a copy every year if it was available. I will say that the user manual for revit is quite good and covers everything.Jeremy Dealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17943157494257552782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-32217162020890874432012-04-05T12:51:23.161-07:002012-04-05T12:51:23.161-07:00To be "Godin-like" I think it;s the medi...To be "Godin-like" I think it;s the media, not the content. The cost per volume is high and the benefit is both short lived and somewhat redundant when compared with what is available free.<br /><br />Now a forward thinking publisher that created media rich electronic formats should be able to pull off some real magic. <br /><br />Hmmmm<br /><br />Oh, FYI<br />Autodesk Revit Architecture 2013: No Experience Required (July 2012) from cadalot-revitlearningcurve.blogspot.comErikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05930332092459194929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-15535107114947142282012-04-05T12:17:23.493-07:002012-04-05T12:17:23.493-07:00Well that puts my mind at ease some!
