RESULT :- Created the plan view for ground floor level &first-floor level separately for Architectural plan & structural plan. Procedure is shown in detailed in procedure section.
AIM :- Annotate the project concerning the longitudinal and transverse grids created in the project files.
INTRODUCTION :- Annotation tool bar is used to show the dimensions along the grids to the longitudinally & transversally In to the projects.
PROCEDURE :-
Creating grids
- Go to the architectural tab
- Now at the right side there is Grid option select that
- Now create grids between the walls horizontally & vertically respectively
- Adjust the length of grids as required
- Rename the required grids respectively
- Horizontal grids are named as 1 to 8
- Vertically grids are named as A to F
- Architectural annotation
- Select the ground floor from project browser & first floor respectively
- Now select the annotate tab at ribbon
- Then select the linear option
- Select grids line 1st & 2nd at where you want to show dimensions
- Do the same thing for showing all dimensions
- Structural annotation
- Select the ground floor from project browser & first floor respectively
- Now select the annotate tab at ribbon
- Then select the linear option
- Select grids line 1st & 2nd at where you want to show dimensions
- Do the same thing for showing all dimensions
RESULT :- By the use of annotate tab the dimensions are shown above at the both section a & b. respectively all the procedure are shown above briefly.
AIM :- Create a sheet template from the view tab and adjust the parameters on the sheet to add appropriate views.
INTRODUCTION :- In Revit, you create a sheet view for each sheet in the construction document set. You can place multiple drawings or schedules on each sheet view. About sheets in project templates. Create views on project template before you start building the model to streamline the project documentation process.
PROCEDURE :-
- Go to the view tab at ribbon
- Now select the sheet option there
- Then this dialog box will appear there chose page then okay
- Then fill all the things what that sheet requires
- Then from the project browser select the ground floor and drag it to the sheets
- Then place at center then set the scale for the fit of sheet
RESULT :- Created a sheet template from the view tab and adjusted the parameters on the sheets accordingly.
AIM :- Create the elevation view for the project.
INTRODUCTION :- The elevation view is a side view of the structure. Jim explains that an elevation is not only a side view but it is also a side view from the outside of the structure. This view can convey information that includes vertical dimensions, elevations locations of door and windows and outside finishes.
PROCEDURE :-
Creating views
- Go to view tab in ribbon
- Click on elevation
Creating elevation points
- Go to floor plan view in project browser
- Place 4 points one by one in four directions respectively
- Now in project browser building elevation will be appears
- From there you can look the elevation one by one by clicking on there names
RESULT :- Elevation views for four directions are created and each view is shown below one by one.
East
North
South
West
AIM :- To create a section cut through view either longitudinally or transverse direction.
INTRODUCTION :- A section view provides architects and contractor another way of understanding how construction will stand up as it revels details of the construction of wall and the thickness and height of beams and other supports. While a floor plan allows for a view of how the walls stand in relation to each other a section shows where the wall meets the floor and the distance that separates one floor from another.
PROCEDURE :-
Creating section lines
- Go to view tab
- Click on section
Creating sections line
- Place the curser on the one side of the section from where you want to start section
- Draw vertical or horizontal line respectively
- From where to where you need sections
- I created sections named as A, B, C, & D

Section A
Section B
Section C
Section D
AIM :- To classify the different views from the properties browser.
INTRODUCTION :- The view types from the properties browser is used to view the types to quickly and apply certain graphics properties and view templates to new view or to change the graphics properties for the existing views.
PROCEDURE :-
- Structural plans
- Floor plans
- Ceiling plans
- 3D-views
- Elevation (Building elevations)
- Section (Building sections)
- Sheets
RESULT :- views are classified shown below briefly by using properties browsers.
AIM :- To create multiple sheet templates for the different views of plan.
INTRODUCTION :- In Revit, you create a sheet view for each sheet in the construction document set. You can place multiple drawings or schedules on each sheet view. About sheets in project templates. Create views on project template before you start building the model to streamline the project documentation process.
