1Q) 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 celiling from the architecture tab above the walls at the first-floor level

Procedure :

  • Open the Revitsoftware Then open the week 3 challenge
  • In the properties browser click the ceiling option then lect the ground floor level
  • Now in the architecture tab click on ceiling then modify tab will open then click on the sketch ceiling option

Plan view

Hall cam view

Q2) 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 create a roof above the ceiling by selecting the footprints of the ceiling

Procedure :

Click the ground level from the properties browser

And also scroll down then the roof option will available

In that select the roof type

Then in the architecture tab click on the roof footprints option the the modify tab will open

Then create a boundary by using draw panell (rectnagle pick line)

I have selected the Basic Roof generic 12"

Finally click on the finish edit The roof will be created

If we want to proceed to another floor remove the floor slop by using modify or edit tab

In the Quation we have to change the slope 10 degree.

By using properties tab change the slope to 10 degree.

Result :

The roof above the ceiling is created by selecting the footprints of the ceiling

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 plane views of week 2 to 4 and separated them to architecture and structural plans

Procedure :

a). Architecture plan must have walls, floors, and all the components placed within the building

  • Open the project we working
  • Then select the view tab then click on the plan views
  • Select the Floor plan then the arhitechture plan will open

b). Structure plan must have details of only walls, floors, and columns

  • Now again select the plan views
  • Select the structural plan view

Result :

The plane views of week 2 to 4 and separated them to architecture and structural plans

Architecture plan

Structure plan

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 create the annotation to the project

Procedure:

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

  • Go to the annotate tab and select the aligned or linear option
  • Then click on the plan where we insert the dimentions.
  • Give all dimention we need

Result :

The dimentions are given to the architectural plan

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

Go to the structural plan from the properties browser

Then click on the annotate tab

Select the linear dimention option

Then give the dimentions to the plan

Result :

The dimentions are given to the architecture and structural plan

Architecture plan

structural plan

5Q) 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

Procedure :

Go to the view tab

In that select the sheet option

Then the new sheet dialog will popup

If we need the different template we can load from the librare or else select the defult

Then click on ok then sheet will be opened

In the sheet select the sheet double click on where we need to edit content

Now go to the properties browser the select the plan view drag it and place in the sheet

Result :

The sheet templete is created by using view tab and also adjusted parameters

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

AIM : To create a elevation view using elevation tab

Procedure :

  • In the project model click on the view
  • In that select the elevation option then the elevation cursor will get then drag it possition at all 4 direction
  • In the properties browser change the elevation view as direction shows
  • East facing:
  • west facing:
  • North facing :
  • South facing :

Result : The elevation views created using elevation tab in the revit software

East facing:

west facing:

North facing :

South facing :

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

AIM : To create the section views of each room longitudinally or in a transverse direction

Procedure :

  • Go to the view tab
  • In that select the section option
  • Section tool will be loaded
  • Then place it required section view
  • Do same procedure for more section for different Rooms
  • Section cuts are created at every room
  • Now rename it in project browse at section option

Result : The sections are created at every room by using the view tab in the Revit software

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

AIM: To classify the views, plan views, section views and elevation views to either design or documentation category using property browser.

PROCEDURE:

Go to the view tab and click on the user interface

Click on the project browser in project interface.

RESULT: views, section views, Plan views, elevation views are classified.

9Q) 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

AIM : To create multiple sheet template for differnt Types in project

Procedure :

  • Go to the view tab
  • In that select the sheet template option As we done in the 5Q
  • Then the new sheet dialog will popup
  • If we need the different template we can load from the librare or else select the defult
  • Then click on ok then sheet will be opened
  • In the sheet select the sheet double click on where we need to edit content.
  • For every sheet edit the sheet name and number
  • Now go to the properties browser the select the plan view drag it and place in the sheet

Result : The total sheets is created by using view tab and sheet option

a. A 101- Ground Floor Architecture Plan


b. A 102- First Floor Architecture Plan


c. A 103- Roof Plan

10Q) 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 camera specific view for each room

Procedure :

  • Go to the view tab
  • Select the 3d view option
  • In that select the camera option
  • Draw the cursor then place at every room
  • Rename it in the project browser
  • Do same procedure for more room views

Bed room 2

Landry room

Toilet

Dinning hall

Kitchen room

Living area

Now go to the sheet option create sheet for every camera view
