What are Revit Uniformat Codes?

All model elements in Revit Architecture have Assembly Code and Assembly Description type properties based on the hierarchical list of Uniformat codes assigned by R.S. Means. You can add or change a Uniformat assembly code for a selected element type. The read-only Assembly Description property updates to match the assigned code.

Both the Assembly Code and Assembly Description fields are available for creating a schedule that groups components by Uniformat code.
