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: Model a ceiling at the first floor
PROCEDURE:
First floor > Architecture > Ceiling > Sketch ceiling > Boundary lines > Line
Draw the boundaty lines of the ceiling in the first floor plan >Finish edit mode
Result:
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: Create a Roofing at the first floor
PROCEDURE:
To create a Roofing
First floor > Architecture > Roof >Roof by footprint > Boundary lines > Line
Draw the boundaty lines of the roofing area in the first floor plan >Finish edit mode
Result:
To change slope to 10 degree
Select the roof > Properties > Dimensions / Slope > change the value to 10 degree > Apply
Result:
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 ceate architecture plan
Procedure: View > Plan View > Floor plan > Ok
Result :
b. Aim : To ceate Structure plan
Procedure: View > Plan View > Structural plan > Select the floor ( Ground floor / first floor)> Ok
Result:
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:
Include dimensions in the architectural plan
PROCEDURE:
Annotate > Linear > Specify the points to be calculate the distances
RESULT:
Architectural GF
Architectural FF
AIM:
Include dimensions in the Structural plan
PROCEDURE:
Annotate > Linear > Specify the points to be calculate the distances
RESULT:
Structural GF
Structural FF
5) Create a sheet template from the view tab and adjust the parameters on the sheet to add appropriate views
AIM:
Create a sheet template from the view tab & adjust the parameters on the sheet to add appropriate views
PROCEDURE:
View> sheet > select the required sheet size > Ok
RESULT:
6) Using the elevation tab create the elevation views, looking at your building from East, North, South, and West
AIM:
create the elevation views
PROCEDURE:
View> Elevation > Elevation
Choose the side of elevation East/West/ South/ North and place it all 4 directions.
Go to property browser. Rename the Elevation to appropriate names by double clicking.
Same way create 4 side views
RESULT:
East view
West View
South view
North view
7) Produce section cut through each room either cutting across longitudinally or in a transverse direction
AIM:
Produce section cut through longitudinally or in a transverse direction
PROCEDURE:
View> Section > select the required place to cut the section > Ok
Property Broser > Section > rename the section after double clicking
RESULT:
cutting across longitudinal direction
cutting across transverse direction
Sectional view of Living Room
8) Classify the views, Plan Views, Section Views, and Elevation views to either Design or Documentation category using Properties 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
a. Ground Floor Architecture Plan
b.First Floor Architecture Plan
c.Roof Plan
d.Ground Floor Structural Plan
e.First Floor Structural Plan
f. Roof Framing Plan
g. North-South Elevations
h. East-West Elevations
i. Sectinal views
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: Create a camera-specific view or a 3D view in each room
Procedure: View > 3D view > Camera > Place the camera in the floor plan as per the required views
Results:
3D view of Bed rooms
3D view of Living room
3D view of Dining room
3D view of Stair Case
