3D Creation of Ceiling, Roof, Architectural plan, Structural plan, Sectional view, Elevation view and Camera specific view for a house plan using REVIT
1) 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
Aim:
To Create the Ceiling from the Architecture Toolbar for the Project.
Procedure:
- Open the project.
- Go to the Architectural toolbar.
- Select the Ceiling option.
- Select the Pick Lines.
- Then pick the external wall.
- Then the Ceiling is created for the Project.
Result:
The Ceiling is created for the Project.
2) 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 degrees
Aim:
To create the Roof for the project with the slope of 10 degree.
Procedure:
- Go to Architectural toolbar.
- Select Roof by Footprint
- Select the Pick Lines Option.
- Select the external walls.
- The Roof is created.
- Then go to the Property browser.
- Change the slope value as 10 degree.
Result:
The Roof is created with 10 degree slope for the project.
3) 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 columns
Aim:
To create the Architectural and Structural plan for the wall, Floors and columns.
Procedure:
- Go to View toolbar.
- Click the option plan views.
- Then select the Architectural plan for Ground floor.
- Go to Plan view in the View toolbar.
- Select the Structural plan for the Ground Floor.
Result:
The Architectural and Structural plan for the Ground Floor is created.
4) 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
Aim:
To dimension the Architectural and Structural plan using annotate toolbar.
Procedure:
- Go to Architectural Plan of the Ground Floor.
- Then go to Annotate toolbar.
- Select the Linear option.
- Then pick the end of the walls to dimension.
- Go to Structural Plan of the Ground Floor.
- Then go to Annotate toolbar.
- Select the Linear option.
- Then pick the end of the walls to dimension.
Result:
5) Create a sheet template from the view tab and adjust the parameters on the sheet to add appropriate views
Aim:
To create the Sheet to add the view of the project.
Procedure:
- Go to Sheets in the Toolbar.
- Create the sheet with the appropriate size.
- Then edit the details as below.
- The select the ground floor plan and drag it to the sheet.
- Edit the size of the Drawing.
6) Using the elevation tab create the elevation views, looking at your building from East, North, South, and West
Aim:
To create the Elevation views from East, North, South and West.
Procedure:
- Go to Elevation from the Toolbar.
- Then create the elevation from the Four sides.
East Side Elevation of the Building.
North Side Elevation of the Building.
South Side Elevation of the Building.
West side Elevation of the Building.
Result:
7) Produce section cut through each room either cutting across longitudinally or in a transverse direction
Aim:
To Create the Section cut through each room across longitudinally or in a transverse direction.
Procedure:
- Go to the Section in the Tool bar.
- Draw the cut longitudinally or in transverse direction for each room.
Section of the Bedroom 1.
Section of the Master Bedroom.
Section of the Rest Room.
Section of the living Room.
Section of the Kitchen.
8) Classify the views, Plan Views, Section Views, and Elevation views to either Design or Documentation category using Properties browser
Aim:
To classify the View that are created in a documentation category using Property browser.
Procedure:
The Views of the building are classified as follows.
- Structural plans
- Floor Plans
- Ceiling Plans
- 3D Views of Bed room, kitchen, Dining, Living Room, Master Bedroom and Rest room..
- Elevation such as East, North, South and West.
- Section plans of Bedroom, Kitchen, Living room, Master Bedroom and Rest room.
- And Sheets of the Project.
9) 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
Aim:
To create multiple sheets and name it as A 101-103, S101-103 and A-201-202.
Procedure:
- As we created the sheet before create and edit the details of the sheet as below.
- Sheet No: A-101, Sheet Name: Ground Floor Architectural Plan.
- Sheet No: A-102, Sheet Name: Roof Plan.
- Sheet No: S-101, Sheet Name: Ground Floor Structural Plan.
- Sheet No: A-201, Sheet Name: North South Elevation.
- Sheet No: A-202, Sheet Name: East West Elevation.
10) 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.
Aim:
To Create the 3D View of Each room and plance it to the sheets with the sheets no as A 501,etc.
Procedure:
- As we created the sheet before create and edit the details of the sheet as below.
- And Drag the 3D View that created to the sheets.
- Sheet No: A-501, Sheet Name: 3D View of Bedroom.
- Sheet No: A-502, Sheet Name: 3D View of Master Bedroom.
- Sheet No: A-503, Sheet Name: 3D View of Rest Room.
- Sheet No: A-504, Sheet Name: 3D View of Living Room.
- Sheet No: A-505, Sheet Name: 3D View of Kitchen and Dining.
