Creating Architectural and Structural model with 3D rendering using REVIT

1) Select the type of structure you want to build from one of the three below:
a. Multi-Unit Residential Apartment
b. Office Buildings
c. School

From the above options of type of structure to build a building,

I Need to pick a Multi-unit Residential Building.

2) Assume reasonable assumptions for geographic and location details for your project modeling. Based on assumptions and type of structure selected identify the modeling requirements from NBC

The Geographical and location details for my project modelling, based on assumptions of Multi -unit Residential Apartments.

selected identify the modeling requirements from NBC

  • As above mentioned by the building occurs comes under the residential category and it can be situated in the centre of the city,
  • The project is located in the highway nearest
  • The road width of the project is 60'
  • The height, Area Limitations and Safety measure followed by the NBC 2005
  • The height of project is 42'
  • This project height in meter is 12.8 m and road width is 18.2 m, The height of the building should not exceed 1.5 times width of the road
  • In case of building height is not exceed , so it is suitable for construction.

3) Using the structural model, include the following components based on the type of structure selected
a. Foundation – Isolated / Wall/Matt Foundation
b. Columns
c. Beams Connected to Columns
d. Roof Framing/ Truss
e. Floor / Decks
f. Floor Openings for Elevators and Stairs

AIM :

To Using the structural model, include the following components based on the type of structure like walls , windows , doors, foundations etc.,

COMMANDS USED :

  • Archietectural template
  • Structural template
  • Grids
  • Columns
  • Beams
  • Foundations
  • Stairs
  • Shafts
  • Floors

PROCEDURE :

  1. Open a Archietectural template in revit sofware and save it as residential building Arch-001
  2. Then draw the grid lines and specify the co-ordinates as 0'0" for both horizontal and vertical grids lines

  1. Click the colloborate and save the project

  1. Next open a structural template and save it as residential building struc-001

  1. Repeat step 2 and step 3 , same process and save the file.
  2. Create a new archietectural template and add the archietectural and structural links using manage the links option

  1. Select the acquired co-ordinates and set the links to the current coordinates

  1. Now start drawing structrural components of the project in the structural template
  2. Draw the vertical and horizontal grid lines and also set the levels, foundations,ground foolr, first floor, second floor , third floor and roof levels are created.

  1. Select column option from the structural tab and draw the columns @ intersection of the grids
  2. Repeat the same process , draw the structrural components foundations, beam, floor, and save the project to central file

RESULT :

In tghis project using Structural model and sve it as a colloborate as central file.


4) Using the architectural model, include the following components based on the type of structure selected
a. Wall Layout with appropriate material and finishing
b. Exterior façade with fancy finish
c. Interior partition walls to size rooms
d. Components to add details to a room ( Desk, Chair, Lighting, Plumbing fixtures)
e. Add components such as stairs Elevators
f. Have at-least one side of the building with curtain walls and glass panels
g. Include interior and exterior lighting fixtures
h. Place proper topographic components from outside ( Trees, Parking, Plants) to add details to the model

AIM :

To Using the architectural model, include the following components based on the type of structure selected Above

COMMANDS USED :

  • Archietecture
  • wall
  • components
  • load family
  • ceiling
  • floor
  • door
  • window
  • staircase
  • railings

PROCEDURE:

  • Now go to archietectural template which has created before in this file,
  • copy the grids which where created in this previous structural template and copy it
  • with the help of paste from clipboard option paste the grids in the archietectural template
  • select the grids and pin it
  • click the elevation and create the levels required from archietectural tab
  • click vg in the settings ans select custom in annotation off the grids
  • now start create exterior walls on the grid lines
  • and then floor tool add floor to all the levels
  • by the same way doing in walls also,
  • add stairs to all levels in it
  • to created a stair case and railing system in it
  • add windows soors to the walls
  • load the familes required from the component from project and then in drawing in the load family
  • set the cameras in all views to view the picture in realistics of the building
  • save the project and changes will done in the archietectural template will be saved in centred file

5) Provide a set of drawings in an architectural and structural model to list the following details with categories and appropriate sheet templates included
a. Floor Plans with Annotations
b. Elevations
c. Sections

AIM :

To Provide a set of drawings in an architectural and structural model to list the following details with categories and appropriate sheet templates including floor plans , elevations , sections.

COMMANDS USED;

  • Insert
  • sheet load families
  • edit sheet
  • load images
  • view

PROCEDURE:

  • Open view tab select sheet tool

  • sheet dialogue box wiil appear then press A1 metric and click ok
  • rename the sheet by double clicking on the name , use appropriate name to the sheet
  • go to insert tab select on load image option
  • then add image into our sheet and then save it
  • Reapeat the same process add the archietectural and structural model into the sheets
  • Add the floor plans , elevation and section view also.

RESULT :

Finall we created the sheets of structural and archietectural model including floor plans, elevation view, and section view.

#Floor plan

#Elevation view

#Section view

6) Using the Rendering settings, Render images of the 3D model produced and include the rendered images to the drawing sheets
a. Rendering from interior rooms
b. Rendering from out showing topographic features
c. Rendering through structural framing

AIM :

To Using the Rendering settings, Render images of the 3D model produced and include the rendered images to the drawing sheets.

COMMANDS ARE USED:

  • Render
  • region
  • style
  • scheme
  • sheet

PROCEDURE:

  • Open 3D view, set the view to take the picture where we want to render the area
  • then click view menu and click render option
  • render dialogue box are appears
  • select region option , crop the image in region
  • then we can change the style of render images , schemes , lightning option finally , click render on it
  • Then the render image appears into more realistic than other and it can used to better presentation of our client also

RESULT :

#Bed room

#Kitchen

#Hall

#Overall

7) Print the set of drawing sheets created and submit the drawings from the architecture and structure model

AIM :

To Print the set of drawing sheets created and submit the drawings from the architecture and structure model.

COMMANDS USED:

  • File
  • print
  • set up page
  • select the plooter
  • print page

PROCEDURE:

  • Click the view open file menu and click the print
  • Print dialogue box is appear
  • Then change the setting size of sheet size , text size and page set up everything,
  • then click print and press ok.

RESULT :

Finally , set of darwing sheet craeted and submitted from the drawing in archietecture and structural model.
