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

Ans: I choose office building among the top 3

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

Step 1: Open Revit

Open New REVIT File and save it as Project 2

Step 2:

Go to Manage Tab > Project location Tab

• Click on the location to set the location
• +

Clik OK

• According to my project is a building in a commercial area. roads width should be provided
• Height limits are as per the FAR calculations only.
• Fire safety is aslo provided as per the NBC part iv.

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

ANS:

• Open revit > goto new > structural template

creating grid lines and levels as per dimension

creationg footings columns and beams

• Go to the structural Tab and click on ' Footing Isolated'
• Change the dimensions of footing as per requirement in 'Edit Type' of 'Footing properties' as per requirment.
• Go to the structural Tab and click on 'columns'
• Go to the structural Tab and click on 'beams '
• Change the dimensions of column as per requirement in 'Edit Type' of 'Footing properties' as per requirment.

The height can be adjusted according to properties and requirments

Click on truss select the boundary to create

Creating Floor and openings opening

select floor > floor structural > draw region for floor

select Shaft > Draw the stair and elevatior opening as per requirment.

RESULT:

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.
