Hi all, being into the counseling profession, I have come across a question that majority of engineers and beginners who wanna make a career in CAD (Computer Aided Design) put up. That is what’s the difference between Autodesk Revit and 3Ds Max. And which one is better for us. What career options are available after doing Revit or 3Ds Max software?
So here are the answers. I’m giving you a comparative advantage in Revit and 3Ds Max. Hope the difference will clear much of your doubts.
| Revit | 3Ds Max |
|---|---|
| Suitability | |
| Autodesk Revit is best for architecture designing | 3Ds Max is highly recommended for rendering. |
| Type | |
| Revit Architecture is a Building Information Modeler (BIM). | Whereas 3Ds Max is a 3D Modeling tool. |
| Features | |
|
|
| 4. Parametric Components Bidirectional Associativity Worksharing Construction Modeling |
4. Point Cloud Support Python Scripting Active Shade Enhancements |
| Advantages | |
| Modelling: Families, Boolean Operation, Alignment, Temporary Dimensions. Texturing: Families with Materials Lighting: Sun & Sky presets, Light families with IES data. Rendering: Few Render Settings/ Adjust Exposure. |
Modelling: Nature Scatter Texturing: Substance Material, UVW Map Lighting: Nitrous Viewport, Environment & Effects Rendering: Render Time Effects, Camera Correction, Render Elements. |
Summary
Having looked at the above comparison, we can rightly say that Revit is appropriate for architecture. While 3ds Max is best for rendering. Autodesk Revit is Building Information Modeling (BIM), allowing construction and design experts to bring thoughts from concept to construction alongwith a co-ordinated and co-steady model-based approach. Whereas 3Ds max gives an extensive animation, modeling, simulation, & rendering solutions for films, games and motion graphics artists.

which one is best for an civil engineer student.
now i am in my 2nd year of B.tech . i completed the AUTOCAD now i am confuse between REVIT and 3Ds MAX,so which one is better for me. please suggest any house planning software with interior design. i want to make it my hobby.
Although Revit is better to learn but 3ds max also can be considered if you have time and can spend lil more.

I think revit architecture is good for civil engineering students.
Prefer for revit …as it gives much details ..if u want to learn in advanced version now itself means u can learn 3ds max …
But as a civil engineer u have to give clear ideas of the model so…revit is gud
