5) Create a sheet template from the view tab and adjust the parameters on the sheet to add appropriate views
Answer =
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 ]=
- 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.
- In the sheet template we insert the first floor plan and second floor plan separately as shown below.
- Next edit the Project name and the sheet number as shown in the below figures.
- Created a sheet template from the view tab and adjusted the parameters on the sheet for adding appropriate views.




6) Using the elevation tab create the elevation views, looking at your building from East, North, South, and West
Answer =
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:-
- First we click on the elevation option from the view toolbar
- Then Click on East West South And North In the elevation tab
- then all sides will be covered




7) Produce section cut through each room either cutting across longitudinally or in a transverse direction
Answer =
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:-
- First we click on the section option from the view toolbar, as shown below.
- Next we produce the section view of the bed room and each room of the plan as shown in the below figure.

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.
Answer =
AIM:- To create a camera-specific view or a 3D view in living room, dining room and bedroom in the sheets separately.
INTRODUCTION:-
- Camera Views are really useful in Revit.
- They allow us to view what we would actually see if we were standing at any given location in our design.
- This can be invaluable for both understanding and communicating the nature of a space before we go to the expensive lengths of actually constructing it for real.
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.
- 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
- Next we take the sheet and name it as A-503.Next go to the floor plan and place the camara in the Living room, and the camera view of Living room will be shown below.
