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.

 

PROCEDURE -

-OPEN REVIT 

-goto  MANAGE TAB > OPEN DYNAMO 

in visual programming .

-start process inserting 3 integers slider  

-give name start ,end , step.

-

-type  RANGE , AND CLICK  range block 

-and  connect 3 integer to range block .

 

-search ,point by coordinates 

and connect range to point by 

coordinates .

 

-produced sin wave to ponts .

-for sin wave , searching  

MATH.SIN IN  search box.

 

-insert integer slider 

-add point by coordinates .

-add and join  blocks as per requirement  .

-add another point by coordinate and 

connect it axis 

-now this convert to curve 

-it can be done by nurbs curve 

-connect point by 

coordinate block as input nurbs 

curve .

-a line will devloved connecting points .

-now creat list connect both lines 

-add the poly surface by loft .

and connect geometry .

 

RESULT

create a set of sinusoidal points

and create a curve and create a surface out

of 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.

 

PROCEDURE -

 

Go to  MANAGE TOOL > DYNAMO 

in visual programming .

-search integer slider and inserting 2 

integer slider ,

 

-insert point by coordinate , and 

give name as per squre wall .

-now insert 4 lines by start point ,

end point , in search panel .

-input points as lines are connected 

and creat a squre .

-now creat list  , join all 

4 lines to list .

-now inser wall by curve and height .

-and wall type ,and levels .

-connect all4 with wall by curve and 

height .

-up this coding , squre wall is created .

 

-now insert floor  type block 

chosse floor type 

insert floor by outline type and 

levels are outline curve , floor 

type and levels .

 

-parameters of outline type and level

are outline curve 

 

-now floor is created .

 

RESULT -

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.

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

 

PROCEDURE -

Creat 4 column 

-go to manag tab > launch dynamo 

-select

model elements , click select  option .

goto  revit file , select all4 column  .

-we seen in dynamo during selection 

of column , have assign particular 

ID NO.

-now  add rotate 

attach a slider , degree of rotation .

attach both slider 

-select model elements option .

-slider gives degree of rotation .

-in revit file we seen rotate column .

 

 

RESULT-

Created an array of model elements in Revit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

PROCEDURE -

-OPEN   new revit file .

-click file > new > conceptual 

mass file 

- now creat a level if necessary .

-now on level one  creat creat a curve .

-add geometry to all points 

by setting plane  on that points .

-and select all geometry and and 

than select line and than creat solid form .

-now click solid form , add details line.

 

-now select all details lines and 

than change its property to 

triangular form in property 

browser ,.

-use similar way to creat column,.

 

 

RESULT 

Created 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

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.

 

PROCEDURE -

 

Open new revit file .

-manage tab > dynamo 

-in dynamo open new file .

-add 2 no . of integer slider for levels and 

height for building .

-now add code block with code 

0..#levels..heigh;

 

-attch level , height to code block .

-now creat 4 no. of integer slider 

for lenth , width  , top rotation 

and bottom rotation .

 

-creat a reactangle by width and 

lenth and attch width and length .

 

-creat a point by coordinating 

and attaching that with code block .

-

-attch that coordinating by origon.

 

-then attach that that reactangle origon .

- levels of reactangle can be seen .

-now creat code block for rotation .

-than creat   Z AXIS VECTOR AND 

ORIGON POINT .

-Now finally creat loft 

BY THE CROSSSECTION  OF  THE 

GEOMETRY 

-A  twisting shape parametric model 

can we seen .

 

RESULT -

A PARAMETRIC STADIUM WAS 

CREATED BY USING  DYNAMO.
