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 to the previously created project with the help of architectural tab above the walls at first floor level.

TOOLS USED : Architecture tab, ceiling, sketch ceiling,pick lines, properties.

PROCEDURE :

1. In the project file saved from week 3, click on ceiling tool in architecture menu.

2. Click on sketch ceiling and boundary by using pick lines option and click on finish edit option.

3. Set the level upto which we need ceiling, level 1 in this case.

RESULT: The ceiling has been added 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 aroof above the ceiling by selecting the footprints of ceiling and using adjustment tool bars appearing on screen adjust the roof slope to 10 degrees.

TOOLS USED : Architecture tab, roof, pick lines, properties, slope.

PROCEDURE :

1. In the architecture tab, click on roof by footprint in roof dropdown.

2. Set the boundary for roof using pick lines option, click on finish edit option.

3. In the properties of roofs, change the slope to 10 degrees and click apply.

RESULT: The ceiling with 10 degrees is successfully added.

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

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 architectural 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

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.

TOOLS USED : View, sheets, project browser.

PROCEDURE :

1. In the view tab, click on sheets and click on A1 METRIC and click ok

2.Then make required changes to the detail sheet by dobleclicking or using project browser .

RESULT : The required sheets with parametres is obtained.

6) Using the elevation tab create the elevation views, looking at your building from East, North, South, and West

EAST

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

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

VIEW : it is nothing but the way we see an object i a different direction.

PLAN VIEW : The plan view is nothing but looking at an object from the top and this view helps us to draw or plan the rooms inside a building.

SECTIONAL VIEW: It is the view we get when a building or an object is cut along a line and viewed from one of the sides. This helps us to understand how it looks when it is SECTION from there.

ELEVATION VIEW : It is the view obtained when we look at something from side, it shows how tall the object is and how it looks from sides.

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

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.
