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:
To create the architecture and structural plans for the Ground floor and first floor .
Procedure:
Go to the View tab , from the ribbon tab .
In that click the plan views ,as follows :
For architectural plan views , select the floor option from the plan view tab and click okay .
Now we can see the architectural floor plan for all the floors ,
such as
Results:
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:
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:
In the ribbon , go to Annotate option
From there choose , Aligned/ Linear for measuring the dimensions of rooms in architecutral plan for both the floors.
After choosing the , dimension style .
Now keep the cursor in the end corner of the walls on both sides , Repeat the same for both all the sides .
In structural plan , by choosing the same styles as the architectural plan add dimensions to the components from the grid and objects also .
Result:
Architectural plans:
Structural plans :
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
Procedure:
In the ribbon , go to the view tab .
In that select the sheet option , the following dialogue box appears .
In that choose the standar size of the sheet and click okay .
The sheet template appears as follows ,
In that sheet , select the properties column and enter the values as required by clicking it .
The details can be changed by double clicking it or by directly going to the manage properties tab and entering it .
Now , to insert the gfl view into the sheet ,
Select the plan from the left property tab and drag into the sheet .
after inserting adjust the scale accordingly .
Result:
6) Using the elevation tab create the elevation views, looking at your building from East, North, South, and West
Aim:
To create the elevation views, looking at your building from East, North, South, and West
Procedure:
In the ribbon , go to the view tab .
In that select the elevation option , the following dialogue box appears .
By selecting each face of the plan . new elevations will be created as above .
The elevation views can be viewd by clicking each direction from the project browser .
Results:
The elevations from each direction are as follows:
7) Produce section cut through each room either cutting across longitudinally or in a transverse direction
Aim:
To produce section cut through each room either cutting across longitudinally or in a transverse direction
Procedure:
In the ribbon , go to the view tab .
In that select the Section option , the following dialogue box appears .
Now choose the area , which needed to be section both in longidutinal and transverse direction.
After choosing the secgtion direction , in the project browser the sectional views appears afollows .
by clicking the name you van rename it as according to the situation .
Click okay , now both the longidutinal and transverse direction .
Results:
8) Classify the views, Plan Views, Section Views, and Elevation views to either Design or Documentation category using Properties browser
Aim:
To classify the views, Plan Views, Section Views, and Elevation views to either Design or Documentation category using Properties browser.
Procedure:
- The properties browser will be located in the left corner of the workscreen , in that we can find all the views , elevations , sections, plans , schedules and sheets .
- By clicking each titles , it enlarges to the following respective subtitles .
- from there the views can be classified and identified .
Results:
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
Aim:
To create a sheet template for the following views/plans
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
Procedure:
In the ribbon , go to the view tab .
In that select the sheet option , the following dialogue box appears .
In that choose the standar size of the sheet and click okay .
The sheet template appears as follows ,
These are the sheets which has been created , this can be found in the project browser
Results:
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.
Aim:
To create a camera-specific view or a 3D view in each room ( living, dining, bedroom).
Procedure:
In the ribbon , go to the view tab .
Select the 3D view option , in that choose camera view .
Now place the camera in the direction which you want to create the views and enter okay .
A seperate window will be opened from the view and to rename it click on the project browser under views , choose the file to rename it .
Hall view has been created , now by using the same method other areas also can be created .
The created views can be seen in the project browser panel under 3d views
Now for creating sheets , go to the view tab .
Click the sheet option , choose the template and click okay
now from the project browser select the views and drag to the sheet and place it .
For scaling click on the , view and edit .
Results:
Thus the required view sheet has been created ,
