Similar to above – HEAPS of families for you to download (17096 at last check!). A massive range of content, quality can be a bit iffy but try your luck. Heaps – I mean HEAPS of Free Revit families, from 2009, 20 format. Nevertheless this is a great site if your’e after Free Revit content. All Revit families are supplied by the manufacturers, (not by SpecifiedBy) so content quality could vary from product to product. They claim to have “the largest library of BIM content in the UK”, and the site is easy to navigate, search, and filter to find exactly what you’re looking for. This is a great resource for manufacturer specific content from a huge range of product catagories. A diverse range of products, with lots of Mechanical & Plumbing fixtures. This site has a lot of SketchUp content – but also a whole heap of Revit families as well. A helpful feature is you can search by Country, so you can find families that are relevant to your location/market. Easliy search by brand, catagory, materials, building types and functional spaces.Īnother BIM Library with a huge range, you can find manufacturer specific content, as well as User created generic content.
Containing IFC and COBie parameters, with a wide range of content from UK Manufacturers – this is a great site to find content.īIM Object now hosts all of the Autodesk Seek’s BIM content, which means you can find a huge range of manufacturer specific content from all around the world. Similar to the NBS, BIMstore creates all FREE Revit Families according to the ‘BIM Store Bible’ which is a best practice family creation guide.
This standardizes things like IFC and COBie parameters, meaning they contain a lot of data which is useful for interoperability.Īnother great site from the UK. You can find a whole range of different families, both manufacturer specific and generic. The UK has been leading the way in BIM adoption and standards, and therefore all families available have been created to the NBS BIM Object Standard. In my opinion, this is one of the best sites to find FREE Revit Families. On top of that is MyBIMsmith which features free, private cloud storage for any of these families so you can save your favorite families or configurations and come back to download them later. They also have a cool tool called BIMsmith Forge, which helps you create flooring, wall, ceiling, and roof assemblies layer-by-layer that can then be downloaded as a system (real cool!). There is a good mix of products, but generally centered around Architectural families (lots of furniture, lighting, appliances etc.) which makes sense as the site and content is created by former architects. Please check them out for yourself and let me know which ones you found the best.īIMsmith is a great online resource with lots of Free Revit families to download. Although they are numbered from 1 to 17, this is not a ‘rank’ list. In this blog post, I have compiled a list of popular BIM and Revit online libraries offering FREE content for you to download. It can be hard to tell how a Family has been made, and how it will behave when brought into your model. A lot of Free Revit Families are Hit and miss, some are good, some are bad, and some are just plain crap! So beware of the families you download, you may end up spending significant time getting them up to your own standards. A lot of the content available is manufacturer specific, meaning you can integrate ‘real-life’ products into your projects at an earlier stage, saving you modelling time and therefore $money$.īut there is a catch – Not all content is created equal. They can help you save time and dramatically increase your model options by downloading ready made content. This is where online libraries can be so valuable. Most of us work to tight deadlines and don’t have the required free hours in the day to build up our own Revit library. But creating families from scratch requires: a) Family creation knowledge We all need good content to populate our models, and if they are Free then even better! Sure the out-the-box Revit families do a great job, and of course we can always make our own. Looking to download FREE Revit Families? Start here:
