Challenge

3D Creation of Ceiling, Roof, Architectural plan, Structural plan, Sectional view, Elevation view and Camera specific view for a house plan using REVIT

Ans 1:

Aim: Based on the project saved from Week 3, proceed from the First Floor Level. Model a Ceiling from the architecture tab above the walls at the first-floor level.

PROCEDURE

  • First we open the revit sofware, and select the ceiling option from the architecture toolbar.
  • sketch the boundries by pick planes
  • The ceiling of the residential building is created and shown in 3D view.

Ans 2:

Aim: Model a roof above the ceiling by selecting the footprints of the ceiling. Using the adjustment toolbars appearing on-screen adjust the roof slope to 10 degree.

PROCEDURE:

  • Open the architecture toolbar, and select the Roof by Footprint.
  • Select pick lines and pick the lines.
  • Now select the footprint roof and change the slope to 10 degree.
  • The roof has been created.

Ans:

Aim: Using the file saved from weeks 2 to 4, create plan views for ground floor level and first-floor level including all the walls, floors, and components. Separate them to
architecture and structural plans

a. Architecture plan must have walls, floors, and all the components placed within the building
b. Structure plan must have details of only walls, floors, and column.

PROCEDURE:

  • Select the Plan From week 4 Challenge
  • Go into the View tab and select the plan views command from the ribbon.
  • Select the views you want to represent.

Structural:

Architectural view:

Ans 4:

Aim: Using annotate toolbar add dimensions to all the walls and floors with reference to the longitudinal and transverse grids created in the project file

a. The architecture plan dimensions include details on where the components are placed within the buildings with relation to grids. Overall dimensions are sufficient for architecture plans

b. The Structure plan dimensions must include details on the position of all the walls and interior walls with reference to grids. Locate all the framing components of the building with reference to a fixed point using Structural plans

Procedure:

  • Here we drawn the longitudinal and transverse grids to the architectural floor plans
  • And add the dimensions to the architectural plans
  • In structural plan draw the grids and mark the dimensions
  • repeat it for both the levels.

Ans 5:

Aim: Create a sheet template from the view tab and adjust the parameters on the sheet to add appropriate views

PROCEDURE

  • First we click on the sheet option from the view toolbar
  • After clicking the sheet. The new tab will be visible on the screen
  • In the sheet template we insert the 3D View from the place view command
  • Next edit the project name and the sheet number

Ans 6:

Aim: Using the elevation tab create the elevation views, looking at your building from East, North, South, and West.

PROCEDURE

  • First we click on the elevation option from the view toolbar
  • Next the elevation of East is visible
  • Elevation view of West
  • Elevation view of North
  • Elevation view from South

Ans 7:

Aim: Produce section cut through each room either cutting across longitudinally or in a transverse direction

PROCEDURE

  • First we click on the section option from the view toolbar
  • Next we produce the section view of the Bedroom.
  • The section view of Kitchen
  • The section view of Dinning
  • The section view of Living room

Ans 8:

Aim: Classify the views, Plan Views, Section Views, and Elevation views to either Design or Documentation category using Properties browser.

PROCEDURE:

The one of the most benifit of the revit software is it automatically creates the plan, section, views, & elevation or the model.

Ans 9:

Aim: Using the sheet template produced create multiple sheets as follows
a. A 101- Ground Floor Architecture Plan
b. A 102- First Floor Architecture Plan
c. A 103- Roof Plan
d. S 101- Ground Floor Structural Plan
e. S 102- First Floor Structural Plan
f. S 103- Roof Framing Plan
g. A-201- North-South Elevations
h. A-202- East-West Elevations

Add additional sheets based on the sections created in your Revit file

PROCEDURE:

  • First we produce the Ground floor architectural plan in the sheet template A-101. as shown in the below figure.
  • The first floor of the architectural plan is created in the template A-102 sheet.
  • The Roof plan is creaated in the sheet A-103
  • The ground floor structural plan is created in the sheet S 101.
  • The first floor structural plan is created in the sheet S102.
  • The roof framing plan is inserteed in the sheet S 103.
  • The north south elevation views are inserted in the sheet A-201.
  • The East West elevation views of the building is inserted in the sheet A-202.

Ans 10:

Aim: Create a camera-specific view or a 3D view in each room ( living, dining, bedroom). Based on the views create a new set of sheets starting A-501 (you can add as many sheets after, 502, 503.. n)to place the 3D view images. Produce the sheets as a part of project drafting.

PROCEDURE:

  • First we take the sheet and name it as A-501
  • Next go to the floor plan and place the camara in the Bed room, and the camera view of bed room will be shown below.
  • Create a sheet and name it A-502
  • Go to the floor plan and place the camera in the dinning room
  • the created view in presented in the sheet A-502
  • Create a sheet and name it A-503
  • Go to the floor plan and place the camera in the living room
  • the created view in presented in the sheet A-503
