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 the architecture tab above the walls at the first-floor level.

INTRODUCTION:

• The creation of Ceilings within Revit is a very similar process to that of Floors and Roofs- ie you can let Revit do most of the work and "gress" where you want the boundaries to be.Or you can enter Sketch Mode and literally sketch out the boundary of the ceiling yourself.
• The main thing to remember is to be in the Connect Ceiling Plan View before you start. Revit will let you place Ceilings in Floor Plan
• Views, but I would not advise this as you cannot readily see what you have created.

PROCEDURE

Step:-1

• First we open the revit sofware, and select the ceiling option from the architecture toolbar.

RESULT:

The ceiling has been modeled successfully from the architecture tab above the walls at the first floor level.

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.

INTRODUCTION:

• Roof, covering of the top of a building, serving to protect against rain snow, sunlight wind, and extremes of temperature.
• Roofs have been constructed in a wide variety of forms flat, pitched, vaulted, domed, or in combinations as dictated by technical. economic, or aesthetic considerationsThe earliest roofs constructed by man were probably thatched roofs that were made of straw.

PROCEDURE:

Step:-1

• Open the Architecture toolbar, and select the Roof by Footprint option as shown in the below figure.

step 2:

• Now select the footprint roof and change the slope to 10 degree.

RESULT:

The roof has been created and the slope is aadjusted to 10 degree.

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 floor level and first-floor level including all the walls, floors, and components And to Separate them to architecture and structural plans

INTRODUCTION:

• The structural plan view is the default view when you start a new project using a structural template. . Most projects include at least one structural plan. New structural plan views are created automatically as you add new levels to your project. You can create multiple structural plan view types
• The floor plan view is the default view in a new architectural project. - Most projects include at least one floor plan.
• Floor plan views are created automatically as you add new levels to your project.

PROCEDURE

Step:1

• First we draw the architectural plans of first floor and second floor as shown below.

Step 2:

• Next draw the structural plans of the ground floor and the first floor as shown below.
• Same like as above option
• Open the new sheet and set the unit
• set the levels
• In the above tool bar pick the view option
• And taken the plan views in right side

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 add dimensions to all the walls and floors with reference to the longitudinal and transverse grids created in the project fite

INTRODUCTION:

• The structural plan view is the default view when you start a new project using a structural template.
• Most projects include at least one structural plan. New structural plan views are created automatically as you add new levels to your project. You can create multiple structural plan view types.
• The floor plan view is the default view in a new architectural project. Most projects include at least one floor plan.
• Floor plan views are created automatically as you add new levels to your project.

PROCEDURE:

Step:-1

• Here we drawn the longitudinal and transverse grids to the architectural floor plans as shown below.
• And add the dimensions to the architectural plans as shown below.

STEP 2:

• In structural plan draw the grids and mark the dimensions
• repeat it for both the levels.

RESULT:

The dimensions are added to both the Structural and Architectural Plans.

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 to add appropriate views.

INTRODUCTION-

• Create views on a project template before you start building the model to streamline the project documentation process.
• When creating a project template you can include sheets in the template Start with a blank project file and create the standard views and levels that each project should include
• Leave the views empty but assign standard names to them. To create a standard set of construction documents, create sheets using the desired title blocks
• Add views to the sheets, using the desired viewport templates and view title types
• Then save the empty project as a project template.
• When you create a project using this project template, all of the views and sheets are already created and listed in the Project Browser
• As you start to draw the building model in the project views, the views on the sheets update automatically.
• This technique streamlines the project documentation process and maintains organizational standards.

PROCEDURE

Step:-1

• First we click on the sheet option from the view toolbar, as shown below.
• After clicking the sheet. The new tab will be visible on the screen.

• in that new tab we select the Al metric, then the sheet template will be displayed.

Step2:

• Go to Sheets from Project browser then Right click Then select an Add View Option.

• From that select view which we want to put in the sheet and click on Add view to sheet.

• Adjust view by selecting the scale of drawing to the sheet.

• In the sheet template we insert the ground floor plan and first floor plan seperately.

• Next edit the project name and the sheet number as shown below.

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 your building from East, North, South, and West using the elevation tab

INTRODUCTION:

• An elevation is a view of a building seen from one side, a flat representation of one view.
• This is the most common view used to describe the external appearance of a building.
• Each elevation is labelled in relation to the compass direction it faces. e.g. looking toward the north you would be seeing the southern elevation of the building.

PROCEDURE

Step:-1

• First we click on the elevation option from the view toolbar, as shown below

Step 2:

• Next the elevation of east is visible as shown below.

Step 3:

• Elevation view of west is given below.

Step 4:

• Elevation view of North is given below.

Step 5:

• Elevation view from south is given below.

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.

INTRODUCTION:

• Sectional views reveal hidden details in a mechanical drawing.
• These views assume that a cutting plane has removed portions of the object represented by the drawing, displaying the appropriate section of the interior.
• Sectional views are used in engineering and architectural drawings
• They help civil engineers, architects, and airplane designers communicate their ideas to their peers.

PROCEDURE

Step:-1

• First we click on the section option from the view toolbar, as shown below.

• Next we produce the section view of the bed room as shown in the below figure.

Step 2:

The section view of toilet is given.

Step 3:

The section view of kitchen is given.

Step 4:

The section view of living room is created and given

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

AIM:

To classify the different views to either design or documentation category using the Properties browser.

INTRODUCTION:

Revit provides standard view types for 2D views and 3D views, such as floor plans, elevations, and sections. If desired, you can duplicate a view type and customize it to use certain settings or a particular view template. Custom view types allow you to apply consistent settings to new views quickly and easily.

A view type defines some graphics properties, such as a reference label and tags for elevations, callouts, or sections. It can also specify a view template to apply to a new view, and whether template updates should be applied to existing views.

PROCEDURE:

Step 1:

1. First we open the project browser, where we can see all the views and plans.

2. The different types of views that are categorized as Structural plans, Floor plans, Ceiling plans, 3D views, Elevations, and sheets.

Step 2:

1. Now we access all the plans and views one by one

2. To see the ground floor plan, go to Project browser expand the floor plan, and select the Ground floor plan

Step 3:

1. Next, we see the first-floor plan under the project browser

2. To see the first-floor plan, go to Project browser expand the floor plan, and select the First-floor plan

Step 4:

1. Next, we see the Roof plan under the project browser.

2. To see the Roof plan, go to Project browser expand the floor plan, and select the Roof plan.

Step 5:

1. Similarly we can access all the different types of views of structural plans from the project browser

• First Floor Plan :

• Second-floor plan :

• Roof :

• 

Step 6:

1. Now, we see the different elevation views from the project browser

• East :

• North :

• South :

West :

RESULT:

All the views have been classified into different types using the project browser

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 the multiple sheets and produce the drawings in the sheets, from the given drawing list.

INTRODUCTION:-

• Create views on a project template before you start building the model to streamline the project documentation process.
• When creating a project template, you can include sheets in the template. Start with a blank project file, and create the standard views and levels that each project should include.

RESULT:

Thus multiple sheets have been created and the drawings are produced into the sheet template as per the requirement

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 Produce into the sheet template

INTRODUCTION:

After creating the 3D model, we can place a camera by activating it from your ribbon, View tab, or Create panel. Click the small arrow near the 3D view, and click the camera button on the drop-down menu

After you define the camera, Revit will automatically open a new view. This view will show you what your camera sees. Mostly we need to modify the view. Make sure modify is active, click the view boundary. You will see the blue grips on the rectangle sides. You can resize the boundary by dragging the grip

PROCEDURE:

Step 1 :

1. First we have to set the camera view in the floor plan as per the requirement

2. Go to the View tab and open the 3D view option

3. Under the 3D view option, Select the camera option

Step 2 :

• 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.

Step 3 :

1. Select another sheet from the view tab and name it A-502

2. Now go to the 3D views, Select the Living room view and drag it into the sheet template

Step 4 :

1. Select another sheet from the view tab and name it A-505

2. Now go to the 3D views, Select the Restroom view and drag it into the sheet template

Step 6 :

1. Select another sheet from the view tab and name it A-503

2. Now go to the 3D views, Select the Dinning room view and drag it into the sheet templat

Step 7 :

• Next we take the sheet and name it as A-502.
• Next go to the floor plan and place the camara in the Kitchen room, and the camera view of kitchen room will be shown below.

RESULT :

• Created a camera-specific view or a 3D view in living room, dining room and bedroom in the sheets separately.
