Revit now comes with a new point cloud tool that can connect laser scans directly into the BIM process, helping to accelerate renovation and retrofit projects
Revit 2012 does include some worksharing enhancements, including color-coding which helps to provide greater visibility into element ownership and status to better manage team workflows
Key development in Revit is the introduction of new tools for construction modeling, which allows contractors, or even architects, to add constructability to design models. It allows construction methods to be added to building components; for example, breaking up a wall into its individual layers or breaking up a single slab into separate parts based on the sequence in which it will be poured on site. While these different parts can be scheduled differently in 4D construction sequencing, thereby enabling a more accurate construction schedule, they still belong to the same building element from a design standpoint
