Structural Load Cases and Combinations
- Fixed an issue with CHS and CHT languages in Data Grid Weave component.
Units
- Fixed an issue with digit grouping in Project Units that prompts users with an invalid cell error message when editing family parameters.




Residential Content Pack: Powering residential design
The standout feature in Revit 2026.2 is the expanded Residential Content Pack, offered to accelerate residential project workflows.

This comprehensive library delivers:
- 139 new loadable families, available both as individual files and conveniently consolidated within a single container file (RVT). The extensive range of content includes:
. Window shutters
. Barn doors
. Kitchen casework (with closets and shelving)
. Bathroom showers and vanities
. Fireplaces and fire pits
. Indoor and outdoor furniture
. Grills and planters
. EV batteries and inverters
. Exercise equipment
. Downspouts, and more
- A new System Family container file (RVT) with new definitions for Wall, Curtain Walls, Materials, Floors, Roof, Toposolids, and upgraded Stairs and Railing definitions

With this pack, residential designers can rapidly populate their models with consistent, high-quality components—reducing time spent on family creation and ensuring uniformity across projects. This translates to quicker project initiation, enhanced design iteration, and improved documentation accuracy. The Residential Content Pack is now conveniently available as an optional download through your account management page, located under the “Libraries” section in the “Revit Product Updates” section and online via the “Load Autodesk Family” dialog box. The pack is only available in English – US Imperial Units.

Accelerated views: Performance and visualization upgrades
Revit 2026.2 introduces significant graphical enhancements through the Accelerated Graphics Tech Preview:

- Faster Orbiting: Smoother navigation in 3D views with crop regions enabled, making model review and design exploration more responsive.
- Transparent Highlighting: Selected elements can be displayed with transparency, enhancing clarity when working with complex assemblies.
- Rectangular Crop Regions: Support for rectangular cropped views in accelerated mode.


These improvements leverage GPU acceleration, optimizing large model handling, reducing lag, and delivering more precise visual feedback, especially valuable during design reviews and coordination.

Workflow automation and documentation enhancements
This release also brings a handful of technical upgrades to streamline automation and documentation, including:

- Dynamo Core 3.5.2: Enhanced stability and new features for visual programming, enabling more sophisticated automation and custom workflows.
- Background PDF Export: PDF exports now run in the background by default, allowing uninterrupted work and boosting productivity during documentation phases.
- Text Editor Navigation: Support for Ctrl + arrow keys to move the cursor between words and paragraphs in the text editor, enabling faster navigation for annotation and documentation tasks.
- MEP Fabrication: Assemblies with fabrication parts now behave as unique elements, even when they match, ensuring accurate scheduling and reducing errors in fabrication workflows.
- Enhanced Rebar Constraints: Users can undo/redo constraints, switch views, apply constraints to multiple sets, and modify rebar properties while editing constraints, offering greater flexibility in structural documentation.


Autodesk Revit, Autodesk's leading Building Information Modeling (BIM) solution, supports multi-discipline teams throughout the project lifecycle. Available individually or as part of the Autodesk architecture, engineering, and construction industry collection, Autodesk Revit features industry-specific tools for architectural design, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP), structural engineering, and construction.

* NOTE: For each of the supported languages, the Revit software contains translations for the user interface. Revit does not use language packs. Instead, the base language for the software is determined as follows:
- When installing Revit on a single computer: The language (and locale) for the software is based on the computer's regional settings specified for the operating system.
- When creating a Custom Install: The language (and locale) for the deployment image is based on the regional settings specified for the operating system of the computer used to create the deployment.
Languages for Revit content
In a default Revit installation essential language content packs for the 14 supported languages in Revit will be installed. Essential language content is option within Custom Install workflows.
