    The "BIMpedia Add-in for Revit" provides links from model components selected in the project to the corresponding modeling guides on BIMpedia.eu.

    Modeling in accordance with project-specific BIM guidelines often requires additional reference materials. Especially when dealing with complex specifications, it can be time-consuming to find the right information in separate PDF guides or on web portals while working.

    The BIMpedia add-in brings modeling guidelines directly into Revit—context-sensitive and just a click away.

    • Direct access to modeling guides—tailored to the current selection in the model
    • Reduced search effort and media discontinuities
    • Consistent modeling according to project-specific guidelines
    • Intuitive operation directly in Revit
    • Automatic reloading upon component changes (for common types)

    With this add-in, you can:

    • Open the bimpedia.eu homepage directly from Revit
    • Display the appropriate modeling guide by selecting a Revit command
    • Access the corresponding BIMpedia category directly when selecting already placed elements
    • Be automatically redirected to the corresponding documentation when changing component types

    • Launch BIMpedia by clicking the BIMpedia button

  • As long as this window is open, when you select a Revit command (e.g., Create Wall), the add-in will navigate to the corresponding article (e.g., Wall Modeling Guide).

  • When you select an element that already exists in the model, the add-in navigates to the corresponding item in the relevant category (e.g., "Reinforced Concrete Wall").

  • As long as the browser window is open, it will navigate to the corresponding page even if the component type is changed.

    1.6.0.0

    • Revit 2026.0 through 2026.4 is now supported
    • Bug fixed: The button no longer opens additional instances of the window; instead, it brings the window to the foreground.

    Currently, automatic linking is only available for a selection of frequently used component categories. Additional types will be added gradually. An active internet connection is required for navigation.
