That'll create a new project from that template. Let's look at this one instead, the Metric Construction Template, so I'll choose that one from the list. It's just got the four elevation symbols two levels, it's bare bones, it's stripped down, you're welcome to look at it on your own if you want. Now I don't see any need to actually show you that one, because it's really the same. And if I wanted the equivalent template that I just showed you only in metric units, it's this one right here, Metric Architectural Template. And this time, I'm going to use a metric template just to show you the difference. And then if it asked me to save, I'll say no, in this case, it didn't ask me. So what I'm going to do is go to the File menu here and close it. It doesn't have any other kinds of views, it doesn't have any sheets, it's got very few families, it's a bare bones, stripped down starter template. There's really nothing else in this template. And if I open up one of those elevations and kind of zoom in here, this template is in imperial units and there's just simply two levels, level one and level two. And you know, it's North, South, East and West. Okay, so this opens up into level one floor plan and we have these square elevation symbols right here. Now if you don't have access to this particular template, I've actually provided the templates I'm going to show you here with the exercise file, so you're welcome to open it from there instead. And when that starts, you can see I get this really simple screen that appears here. It's kind of a default US Imperial version. This is like a stripped down bare bones template. So I'm going to start with the most basic template that I have installed which is the Imperial Architectural Template here. You'll see a different list here than what I have. So let's click the New button here under Models and then depending on your installation options at the time you installed Revit. What happens is that when you actually create a new project, what it's really doing is a Save As from the template. So the way you access a template is when you're creating a new project. So the ones that we're going to look at, I'm just going to focus on a few of the different aspects that you want to be looking for in templates. So we're going to look at a few different out of the box templates here in this video and I encourage you to explore others if you wish. So it's a great way to enforce office standards or to set up different types of buildings that maybe need varying setups. A project template is just a starting point for a project, so it can have any settings or configurations that you find useful for one project to the next. In this video, let's talk about project templates.
