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

i prefer to represent a Multi Unit Residential Apartment .

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

  • I assume location details are hyderabad telanagana 500060
  • my modeling gives the model requirements from NBC

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 create foundation , columns , beams connected to columns , roof framing , floor , floor openings for elevators and stairs .

PRCOCEDURE :

  • Open the structural model which we created in week 6 "structural project 1"

step 1 :(foundation )

  • to create a foundation level
  • click on levels in datum tab > create levels in elevation view
  • now go to foundation level and create grids accordingly .

  • select structural foundations and isolated footing>at grids.
  • give right click and select the grids click ok

  • next again go to structure tab>column same as the above process

  • next then draw the beams by selecting at grids option

  • Here is the 3d view of the structural building

  • In level 1 select the floor and draw with the boundary conditions

  • With the same process draw in each floor level.
  • Here is the 3d view of the structural building with floors.

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 room ( Desk, Chair, Lighting, Plumbing fixtures)
e. Add components such as stairs Elevators
f. Have at-least one side of 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 the architectural model , include the components based on the type of structure selected .

PROCEDURE :

  • Open architectural model which we created in week 6 challenge .
  • go to architectural tab > click on place components > load families .
  • load the required familes and wall and floor designs

  • click on the wall > properties > curtain wal

  • place the camera outside the building to set the topographical view

  • place the camera inside the building to view the family components

RESULT:

5) Provide set of drawings in 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 set of drawings in architectural and structural model to list the following details with categories and appropriate sheet templates included .

procedure :

go to view tab > sheets > click on the appropiate sheets > add the views

RESULTS :

LEVEL 1 FLOOR PLAN

LEVEL 2 FLOOR PLAN :

ELEVATIONS :

EAST:

SECTION VIEW:

6) Using the Rendering settings, Render images of 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 Use the Rendering settings and transfer it to the drawing sheets

PROCEDURE:

Go to view tab > click on rendiering view .

after setting the rendering adjustment

RESULT :

EXTERIOR RENDERING :

Rendering view from
