Creating Architectural and Structural model with 3D rendering using REVIT

Q.1) Select the type of structure you want to build from one of the three below:The open space around the building shall not be less than 4.5m.

a. Multi-Unit Residential Apartment
b. Office Buildings
c. School

A.1) From the above question the type of structure to build a building, i want to select Multi-Unit Residentail Apartment.

Q.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.

A.2) An assumed geographical and location details for my project modelling, based on assumptions of multi-unit residential Apartment. A type of Structure selected identify the modelling requirements from NBC.

1. As above mentioned by the building comes under the residential category and it can be suituated in center of

the city.

2. The project is located in the highway nearest.

3. The road width of this project is 60' Feet.

4. The height, area limitation and safety measure are followed by the NBC.2005.

5. The height of project is 33'.

6. This project height in meter is 10.97m and the road width is 18.2m , the height of the building should not exceed 1.5 times the width of the road.

7. In case of building height is not exceed 24m, so it is suitable for construction.

Procedure:

• Open a new Architectural Template in Revit.
• Go to Manage Tab, select Location option from Project Location Section as shown below.

• Select the location as per your desired location as shown below.

Q.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

A.3) To create the structure by using Foundation, column, beams connected to column, roof framing/truss, floor, floor openings for elevator and staircase for residential multi unit apartment commands used :

• Architectural template.
• Structural template.
• Grids.
• Columns.
• Beams.
• Foundations.
• Stairs.
• Shafts.
• floors.

PROCEDURE:

1). Open a architectural template in revit software and save it as residential building-Architecture drwng.

2). Then draw the grid lines and specify coordinates as 0'0" for both horizontal and verital grids lines.

Click the collaborate and save the project.

4.) Next open a new struture template , save it as residential building structural drwng

5). Repeat step 2 and 3 ,same proces and save the file.

• 
• Go to Manage tool and click on coordinate select point option and click on longitudinal grid
• after selecting grid click on specified shared coordinates tab will apear set north south as 0'0".

• Same for transverse grid and set east and west as 0' 0"

6). Create a new architecturqal template and add the the architectural and structural links using manage the links options.

Select the acquired coordinates and set the links to the current coordinates.

8). Now start drawing the structural components of the project in structural template.

9). Draw the vertical and horizontal grid lines, And also set the levels. foundations, ground floor, first floor to fifth floor and roof levels are created.

10). Select column option from the structural tab and draw the columns at intersection points of the grids.

11). Repeat the same process , draw the structural components foundation, beam, floor, and save the project to central file.

RESULT:

In this project using structural model and save it as a collabrate as central file.

Q.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

A.4) Used architectural model, include the following components based on the type of structure selected above and command are used:

• Architecture.
• walls.
• Components.
• Load family.
• Ceiling.
• Floor.
• Doors.
• Windows.
• Staircase.
• Railings.

PROCEDURE:

1. Now go to the architectural template which has created before in this file.

2. Copy the grids which were created in the previous structure template and copy it.

3. With the help of paste from clipboard option paste the grids in the architectural template.

4. Select the grids and pin it .

5. click the elevation and create the levels required from architectural tab.

6. Click virtual graphics setting and select custom in annotation off the grids.

7. now , start create the exterior wall on grid lines .

8. and then, floor tool add floor to all levels of projects.

9. By the way same doing in walls also,

10. Add stairs to all levels in it.

11. To created the staircase add railing system in it.

12. Add windows, doors to the walls.

13. Then, load the load families in the components required for the project and add them in the drawing them in the load family.

14. set the camera in all rooms to view the pictures in realistics, of building.

15. Save the project and changes will done in the architectural template will be save to be centralised files.

Result:

Q.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.

A.5) To Provide a set of drawings in an architectural and structural model to list the following details with categories and appropriate sheet templates floor plans, elevations, and sections.commands are used in :

• Insert.
• Sheets.
• Load families.
• Edit sheets.
• load image.
• view.

PROCEDURE:

1. open view tab and select sheet tool.

2. Sheet dialog box will appear then, press A1 metric and click ok.

3. rename the sheets by doubl clicking on the name and use appropriate names to the sheet.

4. Go to the insert tab and select on load image option.

5. Then, add image into our sheets and then save it.

6. Repeat the same process and add the structural and architectural models into the sheets.

7. Add the floor plans, elevation plans and sections also with the same steps into the sheets.

Q.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.

A.6) To using the Rendering settings, Render images of the 3D model produced and include the rendered images to the drawing sheets.commands are in used:

• Render.
• Region.
• Style.
• Scheme.
• Sheet.

PROCEDURE:

1). Open 3D view and set the view to take the picture where, we want to render the area.

2). then, click view menu and click render option.

3). Render dialog box are appears.

4). select region option and crop the image in region.

5). Then, we can change the style of render images , schemes, lighting options and finally, click render in it.

6). Then the render image will be appears into more realistics than other and it can used to better presentation of our clients also.

RESULT:

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

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

commands are in used:

• File.
• Print.
• Setup page.
• Select the plotter.
• Print.

PROCEDURE:

1. Click the views and open file menu and click the print.

2. Print dialog box is appear.

3. Then, change the settings of sheets size ,texts styles page setup everything.

4. Then click print and press ok.

RESULT:

Finally, set of drawing sheets created and submit the drawings from the architecture and structure model.
