PROJECT-1:

3D Creation of Ceiling, Roof, Architectural plan, Structural plan, Sectional view, Elevation view, and Camera specific view for a house plan using REVIT

AIM:

To 3D Creation of Ceiling, Roof, Architectural plan, Structural plan, Sectional view, Elevation view, and Camera specific view for a house plan using REVIT

INTRODUCTION:

Revit software is developed by the Auto desk in the year 2002. It is most useful for Architectures, Civil engineers, and MEP engineers by Drafting and Design. The Revit platform for building information modeling is a design and documentation system that supports the design, drawings, and schedules required for a building project.

Building information modeling (BIM) delivers information about project design, scope, quantities, and phases when you need it. In the Revit model, every drawing sheet, 2D and 3D view, and schedule is a presentation of information from the same underlying building model database. As you work in drawing and scheduling views, Revit collects information about the building project and coordinates this information across all other representations of the project.

The Revit parametric change engine automatically coordinates changes made anywhere—in model views, drawing sheets, schedules, sections, and plans. To 3D Creation of Ceiling, Roof, Architectural plan, Structural plan, Sectional view, Elevation view, and Camera specific view using Architectural, Manage, and View tabs simultaneously The Course structure of Revit is,

QUESTION NO 1:

Proceed from the First Floor Level based on the project saved from Week 3. Model a Ceiling from the architecture tab above the walls at the first-floor level

PROCEDURE:

1. Open the Revit 2023 software.

2. Open the New Default template.

3. Now set the project browser and properties browser as per the required position.

4. To set the Imperial Feet and inches units.

5. Now give the project information details as per the required model and save the project with the name Challenge 3 Q 4.

6. Now create a 9" brick wall using the Architectural wall tab click it >to click> Duplicate >Change thickness and material and Draw the External walls.

7. Now create a 4" brick wall using the Architectural wall tab click it >to click> Duplicate >Change thickness and material.

8. Now placed doors and windows as per the required size.

9. Now provide dimensions and tag all rooms and name them.

10. Default 3D view.

11. Insert all model elements in the drawing by using Place a component>Load a family.

12. Now doing the created Model a Ceiling from the architecture tab above the walls at the first-floor level.

13. Now go to the Architecture tab>Open ceiling >to insert the ceiling on the first floor to select a pic line select boundaries and click it.

QUESTION NO 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

PROCEDURE:

1. Open the Existing Revit model.

2. Now create a Model of 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

3. Now go to the Architecture tab > Click Roof > Roof by footprint>To select a pick line option and to select all outer walls then click it.

4. Now adjust the slope roof slope to 10 degrees. Click roof and go to the properties browser the slope changes to the 10degrees. Type the UN tool to change the slope units to degrees.

QUESTION NO 3:

Using the file saved from weeks 2 to 4, create plan views for the ground-floor level and first-floor level including all the walls, floors, and components. Separate them into
architectural and structural plans

a. Architecture plan must have walls, floors, and all the components placed within the building
b. The structure plan must have details of only walls, floors, and columns

PROCEDURE:

1. Open the Existing Revit model.

2. Now I need to create the Architectural and Structural plans.

3. Now Go to the view tab and to select the plan view, go to floor plan and click the edit option to click ok. Now ready to view the Architectural plan.

4. Again Go to the view tab and select the plan view, go to structural plan and choose the floor to click the edit option to click ok. Now ready to view the Structural plan. It contains only walls and structural components.

QUESTION NO 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

PROCEDURE:

1. Open the Existing Revit model.

2. Now use using annotate toolbar to add dimensions to all the walls and floors with reference to the longitudinal and transverse grids created in the project file.

3. Go to Architectural plan and Structural plan to select Annotate tab and then select linear dimensions, to insert all room dimensions of the model.

QUESTION NO 5:

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

PROCEDURE:

1. Open the Existing Revit model.

2. Now create a sheet template from the view tab and adjust the parameters on the sheet to add appropriate views

3. Go to the view tab, and click the sheet option it shows the paper size and choose one, then click ok.

4. Now change the project information and edit the details.

5. Now go to the properties browser, click Ground floor plan, and drag it into the sheet.

QUESTION NO 6:

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

PROCEDURE:

1. Open the Existing Revit model.

2. Now create the elevation views, looking at your building from East, North, South, and West using the Elevation tab.

3. Go to the view tab and select the elevation tab,to fix the elevations to draw it.

NORTH:

SOUTH:

EAST:

WEST:

QUESTION NO 7:

The produce section cut through each room either cutting across longitudinally or in a transverse direction

PROCEDURE:

1. Open the Existing Revit model.

2. Now create a to-produce section cut through each room either cutting across longitudinally or in a transverse direction.

3. Go to the view tab .to click the section then cut the section wherever want to show the sections.

Section View of the Bedroom 1: longitudinally

Section View of the Bedroom 2: transversely

Section View of a Hall:

QUESTION NO 8:

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

PROCEDURE:

1. Open the Existing Revit model.

2. Now classify the Views,Plan Views, Section Views, and Elevation views to either Design or Documentation category using the Properties browser.

QUESTION NO 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
