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

Q.1

AIM - Using Dynamo create a set of sinusoidal points and create a curve and create a surface out of the curve.

PROCEDURE -

To create sinusoidal curves first open Revit then go to the manage tab then click dynamo

Open dynamo and start with new file

First add the integer sliders

Set the sliders and required limits

Then add the range block connect the slider to the range block

Then add points by coordinates conned the range block to the X co ordinate

Then add the math sin. Connect the range block to the math sin

Then create the code block and connect both code block and range block to the product

Then connect the product to the Z coordinate the first curve will be crated

To create the second curve add the 2nd coordinate block and connect the code block to Y coordinate , range block to X and product to Z ordinate the 2nd cure will be created

Then add two blocks of nurbs curve and connect the coordinates of both the curve to the nubs curve

Then make the list of curves

And add the surface by loft

Q.2

AIM - 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 -

To create the wall and floors first open revit then open dynamo

Then create new file

Then add 2 integer sliders and 4 points by coordinates

Then connect the sliders to the co ordinated to create the points as rectangle

Then create the line by start point connect the co ordinates to the line block to create the line

Then create the list of lines

And create the wall by wall by curve and height

For curve connect the list for height add the slider for levels add levels for wall type add wall type

To create the floor use floor by outline type and leveL

For outline connect list for floor type add floor type for levels connect levels

Q.3

AIM - 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 -

First create column array in the revit by using architectural column

Then open the dynamo

Then add select model elements and integer slider and set rotation

Select the columns and set the slider to 45

Then connect slider and model elements to the rotation block

The columns will be rotated at 45 degrees

RESULT -

Q.4

AIM- 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 -

To create the parametric struc. First open the the conceptual mass template

Then create the 4m level

Then create the spline shape

Then create the plane at point

And add the shape to the set plane

Then select the spline and curve and create the mass

Then select the foam and split the plane and give the triangular bent option to the planes

RESULT -

Q.5

AIM - 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 -

To create the parametric building first open REVIT then open the dynamo

Then first add 4 sliders one for no of floors 2nd for floor to floor height 3rd for bottom rotation angle 4th for top rotation angle

Then add code block and write a code for levels and floor height

Then add co ordinate system connect code block to the Z axis

Then add slider for width and length of building

Then add block for rectangle by width and length connect the co ordinate and with and length to the block

Then to rotate the building add rotation block connect the rectangle as geometry connect point origin to origin and vector Z axis to axis and for angle add the code block and connect the top and bottom rotation sliders

Then to add surface to the model use poly surface by loft and connect rotaion geometry to the surface block
