INTRODUCTION:

From the architectural tab to model a ceiling at the first floor level on the saved week 3 project of the residential unit.

PROCEDURE:

STEP 1:-

Open the Revit software.

Click on open and select previously created drawing of week 3.

STEP 2:-

Create Ceiling.

Go to Project Browser expand Ceiling Plan, double click on First Floor

Go to Architecture tab select Ceiling

Select sketch ceiling from Modify Place Ceiling

Create Ceiling Boundary tab is open, now select Pick Line tool from draw panel

Select exterior line of the plan then click on green tick from mode to finish

Ceiling is created on the first floor level

RESULT:

Following the above procedure, we have created a ceiling at the first floor level.

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.

AIM:

Created a roof by footprint above the ceiling.

INTRODUCTION:

From the architectural tab to model a roof by footprint at 10-degree slope by using adjustment toolbar.

PROCEDURE:

STEP 1:-

Open the Revit software

Click on open and select previously created drawing.

STEP 2:-

Create roof

Go to Project Browser in the Floor Plan double click on Roof

Go to Architecture tab drop down the Roof and select Roof by Footprint

Create Roof Footprint tab is open, now select Pick Line tool from draw panel

Select exterior line of the plan then click on green tick from mode to finish

Roof is created on the Roof level

STEP 3:-

Type UN to open project unit

Select unit format slope

Change units as decimal degree from format dialog box

Click OK

Select created roof

Go to property browser

Change slope as 10 from dimensions.

RESULT:

Following the above procedure, we have created roof by footprint above 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:

Created architectural and structural plan based on previously saved project.

INTRODUCTION:

Architectural and structural plan shown separately with their component.

PROCEDURE:

STEP 1:-

Open the Revit software

Click on open and select previously created drawing.

STEP 2:-

ARCHITECTURAL PLAN

Go to Project Browser in the Floor Plan double click on Ground Floor

Similarly for First Floor Plan

1, GROUND FLOOR ARCHITECTURE PLAN

2, FIRST FLOOR ARCHITECTURE PLAN

STEP 3:-

STRUCTURAL PLAN

Go to view tab

Drop down the Plan Views from the create panel

Select Structure Plan

Dialog box will open for selecting levels

Choose ground floor then first floor.,

1, GROUND FLOOR STRUCTURAL PLAN

2, FIRST FLOOR STRUCTURAL PLAN

RESULT:

Following the above procedure, we have created separately architectural and structural 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:

Added dimension in architectural and structural plan by using annotate toolbar

INTRODUCTION:

In the architectural and structural plan added dimension with respect to grids

PROCEDURE:

STEP 1:-

Open the Revit software

Click on open and select previously created drawing.

STEP 2:-

Add Dimension

Go to Project Browser in the Floor Plan double click on Ground Floor

Open Annotate tab select Aligned tool

Create dimension to the component from grids

Similarly for the structural plan

a, Architectural Plan Dimension

b, Structural Plan Dimension

Result:

Following the above procedure, we have added the dimension in the architecture and structure plan

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

AIM:

Sheet template created from view tab and adjust the parameter

INTRODUCTION:

From the view tab to create a sheet template and adjust the parameter on the sheet to add the appropriate view

PROCEDURE:

STEP 1:-

Open the Revit software

Click on open and select previously created drawing

STEP 2:-

Create sheet template

Go to View tab

Select Sheet from Sheet Composition panel

Open a new sheet dialog box click on Load

Open TITLEBLOCKS from library

Select appropriate sheet

Edit sheet title block as per view

Drag to insert the plan from project browser in sheet

STEP 3:-

Add view sheet

From project browser select any view then drag to the sheet

After that from property browser change view scale to adjust the view

Edit the parameter on the title block

RESULT:

Following the above procedure, create a sheet template from the view tab and adjust the parameter.

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

AIM:

Created the elevation view of the building.

INTRODUCTION:

From the view tab to create elevation views, looking at my building from East, North, South and West

8. A202- EAST- WEST ELEVATION

9. A301- SECTION

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.
