What Is Meant by Parametric?

About Parametrism

The term parametric refers to the relationships among all elements of the model that enable the coordination and change management that Revit provides. These relationships are created either automatically by the software or by you as you work.
In mathematics and mechanical CAD, the numbers or characteristics that define these kinds of relationships are called parameters; hence, the operation of the software is parametric. This capability delivers the fundamental coordination and productivity benefits of Revit: change anything at any time anywhere in the project, and Revit coordinates that change through the entire project.
The following are examples of these element relationships:
  • The outside of a door frame is a fixed dimension on the hinge side from a perpendicular partition. If you move the partition, the door retains this relationship to the partition.
  • The edge of a floor or roof is related to the exterior wall such that when the exterior wall is moved, the floor or roof remains connected. In this case, the parameter is one of association or connection.
  • Windows or pilasters are spaced equally across a given elevation. If the length of the elevation is changed, the relationship of equal spacing is maintained. In this case, the parameter is not a number but a proportional characteristic.
  • Revit Structure
  • Rebar is spaced equally across a given element. If the length of the element is changed, the relationship of equal spacing is maintained. In this case, the parameter is not a number but a proportional characteristic.
