3D Creation of Celing, 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.

Step 1:

Step 2:

Step 3:

Step 4:

Step 5:

Step 6:

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.

Step 3:

Step 4:

Step 5:

Step 6:

Step 7:

Step 8:

Step 9:

Type un. Then

Then selct the roof, right click, place the slope value under property browser

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

Step 1:

Step 2:

Step 3: Architectural plan-

Level 1

Level 2:

Step 4: Structural plan-

Step 5:

Step 6:

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

a.

Architectural plan

Step 1: Click on annotate

Structural plan

Step 2: Click on annotate

5) Create a sheet template from the view tab and adjust the parameters on the sheet to add appropriate views.

Step 1:

Step 2:

Step 3: Fill up the required data-

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

Step 1:

Step 2:

Step 3:

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

Step 1:

Step 2:

Step 3:

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

Step 1:

Step 2: Here are the views created for the project-

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.

Step 1:

Step 2:

Step 3:

Drag and place in the created sheet.

b.

Step 1:

Drag and place in the created sheet.

c.

Step 2:

d.

Step 1:

Drag and place the required plan in the created sheet.

Step 1:

Step 2:

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.

Step 1:

Step 2:

Step 3:

Step 4:

Drag and place the views on the created/required sheet
