Revit is a design and documentation platform that supports the design, drawings, and schedules required for building information modeling (BIM), and allows for coordination among all team members.
BIM is an integrated workflow built on coordinated, reliable information about a project from design through construction and into operation.
In the Revit model, every drawing sheet, 2D and 3D view, and schedule is a presentation of information from the same virtual building model.
After downloading Revit package from Autodesk site,
start following the next steps to install the program.

If you were a user of Revit 2015, you might use an Autodesk Seek.
Autodesk Seek is a tool to search for product design content from AutoCAD® and Revit® products.
In 2017 release of Revit, the link to Autodesk Seek (seek.autodesk.com) now redirects to BIMobject.com.
BIMobject® Corporation provides free access to manufacturer-specific BIM objects.
