Aim: To model ceiling element in your model.

Software i used Autodesk Revit

Procedure

open revit software.

go to open option select the challenge 3 file model.

I change the material to acoustic ceiling tile to see the ceiling look.

ceiling is always above the level which you choose.

if i choose ground floor level.

ceiling is place above the ground level with the specified height.

Result: I have modelled ceiling element in my model.

Aim: To model the roof element in you model with slope 10 degree.

Software i used Autodesk Revit

Procedure

go to architectural tab.

select roof above build panel.

one dialog box will appeared.

choose the floor in which the roof want to place.

i choose the roof floor.

create roof footprint tab will opened.

go to draw toolbar select the pick line

select the outer boundaries (or) wall egdes.

automaticaliy roof is created.

go to property browser change the parameters like thickness,material,slope,raftercut.

i set the thickness 6".

i assign the material sash wood

i preffered the plump cut.

when you go to slope dimension it is in the ratio but i want degree.

type u in the keyboard then units dialog box will appeared.

change the slope units from ratio to degree.

i set the degree 10 to the roof.

Result: I have modelled the roof element in my model with slope 10 degree.

Aim: To create plan views for ground floor level and first floor level and seperate them to architectural and structural plan.

software i used- Revit

procedure

Go to view tab.

select the plan view.

one dialog box will open.

choose the floor plan.

go to edit type.

select view template as architectural view

back to floor plan select the ground floor

new view will open.

rename the view as arch plan ground floor

select the floor plan

choose the structural plan

change the view template as structural framing.

choose the ground floor.

new view will create which is associated to structural elements.

rename the view as ground floor.

created view can see it in the structural view in the project browser.

this time select the first floor

new view is created

rename it as first floor.

In my model there is no columns that why we cannot see it in the structural plans.

Result: I have created plan views for ground floor level and first floor level and seperate them to architectural and structural plan.

Aim: To annotate the architectural plan and structural plan with reference to the longitudinal and transverse grids

Software that i used - Revit

procedure

go to annotate tab

take linear dimension there is another method type di in keyboard automaticaly dimensions tab will open

choose dimension style give dimension to the architectural plan.

place the grids by go through the datum panel.

according to the grids dimensions have to taken.

for the architectural plan i provided dimensions from components to the gridlines.

for the structural plan i provided the dimensions from wall to the gridlines.

either longitudinal (or) transverse direction.

Result I have provided the annotations to the architectural and structural plans.

Aim: To Create a sheet template from the view tab and adjust the parameters on the sheet to add appropriate views.

1.structural view

2.floor plan

3.ceiling plan

4.3d views

5.elevation view

6.section view

7.area plans

Result: I have created the different plans in my project and classified it.

Aim: To Create multiple sheets in your projects.

software that i used- REVIT.

procedure

go to view tab

select sheet

insert it in to my file.

edit the title block details by double click on the text.

go to project browser set the sheet number and sheet name.

place the different view plans in to different sheets.

ground floor architctural plan

Take another sheet rename the number and name.

place the first floor architectural plan in to sheet.

by cropping the region(or) changing scales.

for the structural sheet

Add additional sheets based on the sections

\

Result: I have Created multiple sheets in my project.

Aim: To create sheets based on 3d views of different rooms.

Software that i used -Revit

procedure

go to view tab

select sheet

insert it in to my file.

edit the title block details by double click on the text.

go to project browser set the sheet number and sheet name.

place the different 3d views in to different sheets.

with the help of camera we created the 3d views of the rooms

adjust the crop region of the 3d view then only it will fit to the sheet.

Result : I have created sheets based on 3d views of different rooms.
