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

1.

Aim: To create a set of sinusoidal points, create a curve, create a surface

Procedure:

• Open Revit software
• Go to the manage tab and select dynamo

To create sinusoidal curve these are the fallowing procedure:

• For drawing a sinusoidal curve we have have some parameters such as start, end and step of the curve.
• With the help of integer slider option we have to assign start, end and step of the curve.
• To get the point take point by coordinate and connect the range to x
• Then the point will be created in X direction
• Then take a Math.sin to get an angle and connect it to the range
• Next take 2nd point by coordinate to create another points in Z direction
• Take code block and connect it to the Z in point by coordinate
• Connect the range to X and math.sin to Y to point by coordinate
• Take a product and connect it to the code block and 1st point by coordinate
• Then point will be create in a curve shape
• To create a curve take 2 nurbscurve.by control point and 2 point by coordinate
• Take List create and connect it to both nurbscurve, the curve will be created
• To get a surface take surface by loft and coonnect it to list create.

Result:Sinusoidal points, curve and surface out of the curve is created

2.Aim: To create a conceptual layout of floor plan in dynamo

Procedure:

• Open new page in dynamo
• To create 4 point
• Take 2 Integer slider and enter the value
• Take 4 point by coordinate and connect then to integer sliders as shown below

• To draw a line using 4 points
• Take line.by startpointendpoint and connect them to the point by coordinate as shown
• Take list create and connet it to line.by startpointendpoint

• To create the wall
• Take level, integer slider and wall type and then connect it to wall.byCurveandHeight as shown

Result:Conceptual layout of floor plan is created

3.Aim: To create an array of model elements

Procedure :

• Open revit software and create the column as shown

• Go to manage tab and select dynamo, dynamo page will be opened
• Take Select model element, integer slider, familyinstance.set rotation

Result: The array of model element has been created.

4.Aim:To 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.

Procedure:

• Open the revit software
• Go to file new and select conceptual mass and select metric mass in conceptual mass folder and click open
• Go to any elevtion and create another level with an offset of 12'
• Then go to level 1 and create shape using spline

• Set a work plan on each point created and draw a 4side polygon as shown

• Select curve,control points and polygon which has been created, and the create it to solid foam

• Now select everything and select divide form and select the triangle bent patter from the properties.

Result:

5.Aim:To work on developing a Parametric Stadium

Procedure:

• Open dynamo take 2 integer sliders and rename them
• Next type code block and enter the code as (0..#levels..FloorHeight) and connect it as shown

• Take 4 integer sliders and rename it as width, length, bottom floor rotation, top floor rotation
• Then take point by coordinate by origin and connect Z to code block
• Take rectangle. by widthlength and connect it to width, length coordinate
• Then rectangle will be created

• Take code block and enter the code as bottom..top..#levels; and connect it as shown

• Take point origin, vector zaxis, geometry rotation and connect them

• To create the surface type polysurfaceby loft and connect it to the rotation geometry

Result:The parametric stadium is created
