Creating Conceptual mass in REVIT and Creation of Sinusoidal curve and a Parametric stadium using Dynamo

1) Using Dynamo create a set of sinusoidal points and create a curve and create a surface out of the curve.

AIM- TO USE DYNAMO TO CREATE A SET OF SINUSOIDAL POINTS AND CREATYE A CURVE AND CREATE A SURFACE OUT OF THE CURVE

PROCEDURE- 

OPEN REVIT  FILE 

OPEN DYNAMO OPTION 

CLICK ON SEARCH BOX IN DYNAMO FILE AND SEARCH POINT BY CO-ORDINATE AND RANGE BY CO-ORDIANATE 

NOW SEARCH CODE BLOCKS AND LOAD THREE COAD BLOCKS KEEO CLICKING ON THE CODE BLOCKS TO COPY THE THREE CODE BLOCKS 

RENAME THE CODE BLOCKS AS START,END AND TYPE

PUT INPUT VALUES AS 10 TO START ,200 TO END AND 1 TO TYPE.

NOW JOIN THOSE 3 CODE BLOCKS TO 3 RESPECTIVE COPONENTS OF RANGE.

NOW LOAD ANOTHER CODE BLOCK AND PREPARE 3 COMPONENTS (START,END ,TYPE)

NOW JOIN THESE 3 TO THE NEW CODE BLOCK 

LOAD ANOTHER CODE BLOCK AND RENAME IT AS NUMBER OF VALUES AND ASSIGN THE VALUE AS 10.

NOW ADD A CODE BLOCK AND ASSIGN 3 COMPONEN TS START END AND NUMBER 

NOIW LOAD SINE FACTOR AND A CODE BLOCK 

RENAME THAT CODE BLOCK AS AMPLIFIER AND FIX THE VALUE PF THAT AS 20.

LOAD THE PRODEUCT FACTOR AND ASSIGN X,Y COMPONENTS TO THAT PRODUCT 

NOW JOIN SINE AND AMPLIFIER TO PRODUCT 

ADD INTERGER SLIDER AND SET THE MINIMUN, MAXIMUN AND STEP VALUE AS 20,50 AND IRESPECTIVELY

LOAD ADD FACTOR AND JOIN THOSE VALUES TO INTERGER SLIDER 

NOW ADD FACTOR AND JOIN THOSE VALUSE TO INTEGER SLIDER 

NOW ADD SURFACE TO THE CURVE.

2) Create a conceptual layout of floor plan in dynamo . Using the tools available in dynamo link the lines to appropriate model elements in Revit by choosing the wall types and wall parameters. Make use of the sliders to slide through the height of the wall and length of the wall.

AIM- TO CREATE CONCEPTUAL LAYOUT OF FLOOR PLAN IN DYNAMO 

PROCEDURE- 

OPEN REVIT  FILE 

OPEN DYNAMO OPTION

SELECT POINTS BY CO-ORDINATDE AND RENAME IT AS (ORIGIN,CONTROLPOINT1.COMTROLPOINT2.CONTROLPOINT3)

USE TYPE SLIDER AND INSERT 2 AND RENAME IT TO X AND Y.

SELECT THE X AND CONNECT TO X IN CONTROLPOINT 1 AND CONTROL POINT 3

SEKLECT THE Y AND CONNECT Y IN CONTROL POINT 2 AND CONTROL POINT 3 

NOW SELECT LINE BY START ENDPONT AND INSERT 4 TIMES BY CLICKING

CONECT THE ORIGIN POINT TO START POINT OF 1ST AND 2ND 

CONNECT THE CONTROL POINT 1 TO END POINT OF 1ST AND 4TH 

CONNECT THE CONTROL POINT 2 TO END POINT OF 2ND AND START POINT TO 3RD 

CONNECT THE CONTROL POINT 2 TO END POINT OF 2ND AND START POINT TO 4TH 

SEARCH FOR LIST AND CREATE LIST AND  CLICK DOWN ARROW MAKE IT AS 4 AND CONNECT ALL THE LINES  TO ITEM 0 TO ITEM 3

SEARCH FOR WALL TYPE BY CURVE AND SELECT IT 

SEARCH FOR WALL TYPE AND INSERT. TYPE LEVEL AND INSERT 

SEARCH FOR SLIDER AND INSERT AND INSERT AND RENAME IT TO HEIGHT OF WALL

CONNECT THE LIST TO CURVE( WALL BY CURVE)

CONNECT WALL TYPE TO WALL TYPE IN WALL BY CURVE AND HEIGHT 

CONNECT LEVEL TO LEVEL IN WALL BY CURVE AND HEIGHT 

CONNECT THE SLIDER HT OF WALL TO HT IN WALL BY CURVE AND HEIGHT

3) Create an array of model elements in Revit. Use dynamo to vary the properties of model elements by using the slider or code block

AIM- TO CREATE AN ARRAY OF MODEL ELEMENTS IN REVIT

PROCEDURE-

OPEN A NEW FAMILY IN REVIT AND SELECT GENERIC MODEL.

CREATE A REFRENCE PLANE AND IN OFFSET TYPE 6 FORNT VIEW

CREATE EXTRUSION AND SELECT CURVE AND DRAW AND THEN SELECT LINE AND DRAW TILL THE MID SELECT ALL THE ELEMENTS AND SELECT MIRROR COMMAND 

ALIGN REFRENCE PLANE. CREATE VOID FORMS USING EXTRUSION WITH OFFSET 2

SELECT THE ANNOTATR AND DO THE WIDTH OF THE EXTRUSION 

SAVE IT AS WALL SHAPE.

SAVE IOT AS WALL SHAPE FAMILY 

OPEN FILE THEN CLICK ON NEW FAMILY SELECT GENERIC MODEL WALL BASED SLECT REF VIEWVAND SELECT INSERRT LOAD INTO PROJECT 

SELECT ARRAY AND CREATE REDF PLANE 8.

TYPE ROATAION AND INSERT IT 

TYPE INTEGER SLIDER AND INSERT IT. SLECT MODEL ELEMENT AND SELECT IN THE REVIT

JOIN THE ELEMENTS TO FAMILY INSTANCES 

JOIN NUMBER SLIDER TO DEGREE

4) Create a conceptual mass in Revit and develop a parametric column by dividing the surfaces and apply the concepts similar to used in parametric walkway modelling. Use triangular bent or square shaped panels to add finish to the parametric column

AIM- TO CREATE CONCEPTUAL MASS IN REVIT AND DEVELOP A PARAMETRIC COLUMN BY DIVIDING THE SURFACE 

PROCEDURE- 

OPEN CONCEPTUAL MASS 

DRAW THE SHAPE 

SETTING PLANE AND SHAPE 

OPEN NEW FAMILY IN REVIT AND SELECT CONCEPTUAL MASS CREATE A LEVEL OF 10 FROM THE BASE LEVELING THUE ELEVATION VIEW AND RENAME IT 

SELECT THE FLORR PLAN VIEW AND SET THE WORKPLANE SELECT THE SPLINE THROUGH POINT SAND DRAW THE WALKWAY

SELECT THE POLYGON AND CHANGE THE SIDES TO 4 AND DRAW 10 RECTANGLE IN THE PLANE IN HORIZONTAL DIRECTION SELECT ALL THE CONTROL POINT AND SET THE PLANE AND DRAW THE RECTANGLE 

SELECT THE PLANE OF SLL THE CONTROL POINTS  AND SELECGT THE LINE AND CLICK ON FOAM SELECT THE  COMPONENTS AND SELECT THE FILTER AND SELECT

FOAM AND SELECT DIVIDE SURFACE

SELECT THE PATTERNAAS TRIANGLE BENT INCREASE THE NUMBER IN THE GRIDS FOR SMOOTH SURFACE 

CLICK O NTHE NEW SELECT FAMILY AND SELECT CERTAIN PANEL PATTERN BASED WALL SELECT THE TRAINGLE BENT PATTERN 

SELECT TH3E FACE AND CHANGE THE PATTERN TO THE TARAINGLR BENT UNDER FAMILY 2 AND APPLY IT ON ALL THE SURFACE WALKWAY IS MADE IN REVIT PROPERTIES 

5) Use Dynamo to work on developing a Parametric Stadium. List your parameters and use the visual programming approach to complete the modelling, You can use the concepts discussed in parametric high rise tower in class for reference.

AIM - TO USE DYNAMO TO WORK ON DEVELOPING A PARAMETRIC STADIUM 

PROCEDURE- 

OPENING A NEW PROJECT 

CREATE POINTS AND CIRCLE

CREATE SET OF CIRCLE AT DIFFRENT LEVELS 

CREATE SURFACE 

AFTER SELECTING DYNAMO IN THE DYNAMO SCREEN TYPE SLIDER AND INSERT 4 SLIDER AND RENAME IT 

TYPE POINTS AND SELECT POINTS BY COORDINATE TO CREATE FLOOE TYPE CODE BLOCK 

JOIN LEVEL AND FLOOR HEIGHT 'TYPR COORDIANTES SYSTEM BY ORIGIN AND JOIN THE CODE BLOCK TO IT IN Z TYPE BLOCM JOIN THE BOTTON ROTATION TIO ROTATION AND NO OF FLOOR RESPECTIVELY

TYPE RECTANGLE BY WIDTH 

TYPE SLIDER AND RENAME IT AS WIDTH/LENGTH OF REC 

JOIN THE CORDIANTE TO CS

AND SLIDER TO WIDTH AND LENGTH 

TYPE ROTATE AND  INSERT GEOMERTY ROTATE
