3D Creation of Celing, Roof, Architectural plan, Structural plan, Sectional view, Elevation view and Camera specific view for a house plan using REVIT
1)
AIM:
To model a ceiling from the architectural tab above the walls at the first-floor level
INTRODUCTION:
Ceilings help create an enclosure and separation between spaces, they help to control the diffusion of light and sound around a room and help prevent the passage of sound between rooms.
In Revit, The creation of ceiling is a very similar process as we did for floors and roofs
PROCEDURE
Step 1:
Step 2:
Step 3:
Step 4:
RESULT:
The ceiling for the first-floor level has been created successfully for the residential building.
2)
AIM:
To model a Roof above the ceiling by selecting the footprints of the ceiling
INTRODUCTION:
A roof is a top covering of a building, including all materials and constructions necessary to support it on the walls of the building or uprights, protecting against rain, snow, sunlight, extremes of temperature, and wind. A roof is part of the building envelope.
In Revit, there are different methods to design a roof (i.e., Roof by footprint, Roof by Extrusion, Roof by face, etc). It creates a roof using the building footprint to define its boundaries
PROCEDURE:
Step 1:
Step 2:
Step 3:
Step 4:
Step 5:
RESULT:
The roof has been created successfully above the ceiling and the slop has been adjusted to 10 degrees.
3)
AIM:
To create plan views for ground floor level and first-floor level and separate them into Architectural and Structural plans
INTRODUCTION:
Revit offers different templates for Architectural, Structural, and MEP engineers to work easily based on the preloaded settings in the templates. When we open the Architectural Template, it will consist of both architectural and structural tabs.
The Architectural tab consists of walls, windows, doors, roofs, floors, etc that are used for architectural purposes and modeling whereas the Structural tab consists of structural walls, Columns Beams other Structural elements used for analysis.
PROCEDURE:
Step 1:
Step 2:
Step 3:
Step 4:
Step 5:
RESULT:
The plan views for both architectural and structural floor plan levels have been created successfully
4)
AIM:
To add dimensions to all the walls and floors concerning the longitudinal and transverse grids created in the project file
INTRODUCTION:
The Dimension tool lets you place permanent dimensions on components in your project or family. We can choose from aligned, horizontal, vertical, angular, radial, or arc length permanent dimensions.
PROCEDURE:
Step 1: (Architectural Plans)
Step 2:
Step 3: (Structural Plans)
Step 4:
Step 5:
Step 6:
RESULT:
a) The dimensions are successfully added to the Architectural floor plans concerning grids
b) The dimensions are successfully added to the structural floor plans concerning grids
5) 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 from the view tab and adjust the parameters on the sheet to add appropriate views
INTRODUCTION:
A construction document set (also called a drawing set or a sheet set) consists of several sheets.
In Revit, we create a sheet view for each sheet in the construction document set. We can then place multiple drawings or schedules on each sheet view.
PROCEDURE:
Step 1:
Step 2:
Step 3:
Step 4:
RESULT:
The Sheet template from the view tab has been successfully created with appropriate views
6)
AIM:
To create the elevation views such as North, South, East, and West using the elevation tab
INTRODUCTION:
Elevation views are part of the default template in Revit Architecture. When you create a project with the default template, 4 elevation views are included: north, south, east, and west. It is in elevation views where you sketch level lines. For each level line that you sketch, a corresponding plan view is created.
We create additional exterior elevation views and interior elevation views to look at a project from different locations
PROCEDURE:
Step 1:
Step 2:
Step 3:
- East:
- North:
- South:
- West:
RESULT:
All the Elevation views have been created and placed successfully at different locations
7)
AIM:
To Produce a Section cut through each room either cutting across longitudinally or in a transverse direction
INTRODUCTION:
Section views display as section representations in intersecting views. Sections views cut through the model. You can draw them in the plan, section, elevation, and detail views.
We can create building, wall, and detail section views. Each type has a unique graphical display, and each is listed in a different location in the Project Browser.
PROCEDURE:
Step 1:
Step 2:
Step 3:
Step 4:
Step 5:
- Bedroom 1:
- Bedroom 2:
- Kitchen:
- Living room:
- Restroom:
RESULT:
All the section views of each room have been created successfully
8)
AIM:
To classify the different views to either design or documentation category using the Properties browser
INTRODUCTION:
Revit provides standard view types for 2D views and 3D views, such as floor plans, elevations, and sections. If desired, you can duplicate a view type and customize it to use certain settings or a particular view template. Custom view types allow you to apply consistent settings to new views quickly and easily.
A view type defines some graphics properties, such as a reference label and tags for elevations, callouts, or sections. It can also specify a view template to apply to a new view, and whether template updates should be applied to existing views.
PROCEDURE:
Step 1:
Step 2:
Step 3:
Step 4:
Step 5:
- First Floor Plan:
- Second-floor plan:
- Roof:
Step 6:
- East:
- North:
- South:
- West:
RESULT:
All the views have been classified into different types using the project browser
9)
AIM:
To create the multiple sheets and produce the drawings in the sheets from the given drawing list
INTRODUCTION:
When creating a project template, we can include sheets in the template. Start with a blank project file, and create the standard views and levels that each project should include. Leave the views empty, but assign standard names to them.
To create a standard set of construction documents, create sheets using the desired title blocks. Add views to the sheets, using the desired viewport templates and view title types. Then save the empty project as a project template.
When we create a project using this project template, all of the views and sheets are already created and listed in the Project Browser. As we start to draw the building model in the project views, the views on the sheets update automatically.
PROCEDURE:
Step 1:
Step 2:
Step 3:
Step 4:
Step 5:

Step 7:
Step 8:
Step 9:
Step 10:
RESULT:
Thus multiple sheets have been created and the drawings are produced into the sheet template as per the requirement
10)
AIM:
To create a camera-specific view or a 3D view in each room and Produce into the sheet template
INTRODUCTION:
After creating the 3D model, we can place a camera by activating it from your ribbon, View tab, or Create panel. Click the small arrow near the 3D view, and click the camera button on the drop-down menu
After you define the camera, Revit will automatically open a new view. This view will show you what your camera sees. Mostly we need to modify the view. Make sure modify is active, click the view boundary. You will see the blue grips on the rectangle sides. You can resize the boundary by dragging the grip
