A few weeks ago I published an overview video for Autodesk Structural Precast Extension for Revit and now I think it is the right time to get up to speed on the latest Precast tools in Revit. Autodesk Structural Precast Extension for Revit 2018 was released along with Revit 2018.1 Revit (rebar shapes).
