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
Commands used:-
Collaborate
Architectural
manage
Grids
wall
windows
doors
ceiling
components
Commands used:-
Collaborate
Structural
Grids
manage
Footing
Column
beams
floor
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 space around the building shall not be less then 4.5m
- The type of construction as type 2 construction, the FAR value for the business building shall be taken as1.25.
- The plot size is taken as 44mx40m i.e, 1685m2m2 and individual floor area is 321m2m2 . Hence, FAR value obtained is 2.14 which is within the prescribed limits as per NBC.
- The width of the road abutting the building is taken as 9m (30')
3) Using the structural model, include the following components based on the type of structure selected
a. Foundation – Isolated / Wall/Matt Foundation
Commands used:-
Structural
Grids
footing
columns
beams
floors
b. Columns
c. Beams Connected to Columns
d. Roof Framing/ Truss
command
Architectural tab
Roof
e. Floor / Decks
f. Floor Openings for Elevators and Stairs
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
command RR
h. Place proper topographic components from outside ( Trees, Parking, Plants) to add details to the model
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
command
view tab
sheet
b. Elevations
c. Sections
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
7) Print the set of drawing sheets created and submit the drawings from the architecture and structure model
