Challenge

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:

  1. Multi-Unit Residential Apartment
  2. Office Buildings
  3. School

Selected Office building

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

The building comes under group E

The open space around the building less than 4.5 m

FAR value for type 2 construction is 2.9

The size of the plot is 47X40

The individual floor area 743 m^2

The FAR value is 1.18 (less than permissible,hence ok)

The width of the road abutting the building is taken as 9m

AIM

Using the structural model, include the following components based on the type of structure selected

  1. Foundation – Isolated / Wall/Matt Foundation
  2. Columns
  3. Beams Connected to Columns
  4. Roof Framing/ Truss
  5. Floor / Decks
  6. Floor Openings for Elevators and Stairs
