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 model a ceiling from architectural tab above the walls at first floor level

PROCEDURE:

1) open the revit file of week 3

2) select the ceiling from the architectural tab.

3) select the boundary lines and click on the green tick.

RESULT: Modelling of ceiling from architectural tab is done successfully.

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 model a roof above the ceiling by selecting the footprints of the ceiling and adjusting the roof slope to 10 degrees.

PROCEDURE:

1) open the revit file

2) select the roof from the architectural tab

3) select the bounday lines for the roof and click on the green tick to complete.

4) In the properties tab, adjust the roof slope to 10 degrees.

RESULT: Roof is modelled successfullyand adjusted to 10 degrees

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 plan views for ground and first floor level and seperate them into architecture and structural plans.

a. Architecture plan must have walls , floors and all the components placed within the building

PROCEDURE:

1) Open the revit file

2) go to the plan views in the view tab .

3) select the level for which we want plan and click on it.

4) click apply same for ground, first floor and roof.

RESULT: Plan view is created in the architectural plan.

GROUND FLOOR:

FIRST FLOOR:

ROOF:

b. Structure plan must have details of only walls, floors and columns

PROCEDURE:

1) Open the revit file

2) go to the Structural views in the view tab .

3) select the level for which we want plan and click on it.

4) click apply same for ground, first floor and roof.

RESULT: Plan view is created in the structural view

GROUND FLOOR:

FIRST FLOOR:

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

AIM: To use annotate tool bar to add dimensions to all the walls and floors

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

PROCEDURE:

1) Open the revit file

2) go to the linear dimensions in the annotate tool bar

3) select the lines and add dimensions

4) fo to the architectural tab and tag rooms

RESULT: The architectural plan dimensions are included in the plan view

GROUND FLOOR:

FIRST FLOOR:

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

GROUND FLOOR:

FIRST FLOOR:

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

AIM: To create a sheet template from the view tab and adjust the parameters on the sheet

PROCEDURE:

1) open the revit file

2) go to the sheet template and select the required sheet from it in the view tab

3) add view from the same view tab and select the required view

RESULT: Sheet template is created from the view tab.

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, looking at my building from east, west, north, south.

PROCEDURE:

1) Open the revit file

2) go to the elevation tab and click on the required direction as north, east, west, south

RESULT: The elevation views are created

7) Produce section cut through each room either cutting across longitudinally or in a transverse direction

AIM: To produce section cut through each room either cutting across longitudinally or in a transverse direction.

PROCEDURE:

1) open the revit file

2) click on the view tab and go to the section view

3) draw the section wherever required and g to the view option to view in realistic view

RESULT: Section cut is produced through each room either cutting longitudinally or in transverse direction.

8) Classify the views, Plan Views, Section Views, and Elevation views to either Design or Documentation category using Properties browser

AIM: To classify the views, plan views, section views and elevation views to either design or documentation category using property browser.

PROCEDURE:

1) Open the revit file

2) go to the view tab and click on the user interface

3) click on the project browser in project interface.

RESULT: views, section views, Plan views, elevation views are classified.

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 using the sheet template.

PROCEDURE:

1) Open the revit file.

2) go to the sheet template from the view tab

3) add the required view from the view tab to the sheet

RESULT: multiple sheets are created succefully.

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 a camera specific view or a 3D view in each room and create new set of sheets starting from A-501

PROCEDURE:

1) Open the revit file

2) go to the camera option in the view tab

3) place the camera in the required position to get the image.

4) select the sheet and add the obtained views in the sheets.

RESULT: Camera specific view is created and sheets are made successfully.
