Template Comparison
Practiced offers two Revit Templates, Basic and Pro. Both templates contain everything you should need to get off to a great start with Revit: An organized project browser, annotations, line styles and fill patterns as well as basic walls, floors and ceilings.

We all know how important graphics are and how challenging it can be to make good looking drawings out of Revit. That’s why PB templates come with our custom lineweights, line styles/patterns and fill patterns. And because each firm has their own preferences for drawing graphics, the template isn’t loaded up with loads of View Templates and filters you won’t use, but does include a few to help you get started.
