• 
• 

Step 5:

• Type > line
• Take line with start point and end points
• Make 3 more copy of that
• Connects the points of coordinates with the lines start and end points as below
• 

Step 6:

• Type > list
• Click on >+
• Make 4 iems
• Make a connection 

Step 7:

• Type > levels
• Select level 1
• Type > wall type
• Select > generic 12’’
• Type > integer slider
• Put the value as 10
• Make the connection as below

Step 6:

• Go to the Revit screen
• 
• Make it realistic 3D view
• 

Step 7:

• For create floor
• Go to the Dynamo screen
• Type> Floor
• Select> floor by type and level
• Type > type
• Give Generic 12’’ filled
• Make connection as below
•

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

Answer:-

Aim:- To create an Array of model elements in Revit  and vary the properties using Dynamo.

Stepwise procedure:-

Step 1:

• Open the Revit software
• Open a New Architectural template
• Click>ok

Step 2:

• Go to the Architecture tab
• Click on > column
• Select size
• Place the column in required place

Step 3:

• Now Go to the Manage tab
• Click on > Dynamo
• Dynamo window will open
• 
• Click > new
• New dynamo file will be open

Step 4:

• Type > Model element
• Select > Multiple model elements
• Click on > select
• Go to revit screen
• Select all columns
• Press enter
• Elements will be selected for dynamo
• 

Step 5:

• I need to rotate the elements at 45%
• Type> rotation
• Select > Rotation by family instance
• Make the value as 45
• Type > Integer slider

Sep 6:

• Connect element to the family instance
• And Integer slider with degree
• see the view in revit screen with 45 degree rotation
• 

Result:

When u change the value in the integer slider 225 instead of the 45

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

Answer:-

Aim:- To create conceptual mass in Revit and create parametric design by using Dynamo.

Stepwise procedure:-

Step 1:

• Open the Revit software
• Open a New Architectural template
• Click>ok

Step 2:

• Click > file
• Click > New
• Click > Conceptual mass
• 
• Open conceptual mass folder
• Click> mass
• 

Step 3:

• Go to any one of the Elevation
• create the another one levels
• 
• Go to the create tab
• Click > model lines
• Click > Spline
• 
• Place the points
• Press enter.

Step 4:

• Now , Just Go to 3D view
• Set the plane
• Click> set option
• Click> last point
• Click > show
• 
• Simmillarly place it to all points.

Step 5:

• Choose > Polygon
• Click point
• Give the height as 12’
• Press enter
• 
• Simmillarly create for all other points
• 

Step 6:

• Now, Need to spline to form
• Go to create option
• Select the curve
• Click on > create form
• Select > Solid form
• 
• See the view
• 

Step 7:

• Click > filter
• Checkmark on Form only
• Click > ok
• 

Step 8:

• Now , Apply Triangle bent
• Select the spline curve
• Click on > Divide surface
• Select pattern > Triangular bent.
• 
• 
• From the properties browser
• Change the number > 50
• 
• Click > apply
• See the view

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.

Answer:-

Aim:- To use the Dynamo to work on developing a parametric stadium.

Stepwise procedure:-

Step 1:

• Open the Revit software
• Open a New Architectural template
• Click>ok

Step 2:

• Open the Dynamo window (from the manage tab)
• 
• Click on > new

Step 3:

• Type > integer slider
• Make 1 more copy of that
• Assign the name as followings
• 
• Take the value of 1 for 5 and value 10 for the other
• 

Step 4:

• Type > code block
• Call it as follows
• Made the connection as below
• 

Step 5:

• Type > origin (x,y,z)
• Connect code block to z
• Type > integer slider
• Make 3 more copy of integer slider
• Renamed them as follows
• And also assign them with values
• 

Step 6:

• Type > Rectangle
• Select > by width and length
• Make the connection
• Type > Vector
• Select vector z
• Type > Rotate
• Select > Rotate by origin, axis, degree
• 
• 
• see it in the Revit screen 
• 

Step 7:

• Type > polysurface
• Select > By loft
• Make the connection
• 

Result:

When you change the parameter that you want to change later
