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.

ans:

Using Dynamo creates a set of sinusoidal points and creates a curve and creates a surface out of the curve

• by using Revit as well as a dynamo to open the files.
• choose the respected files and open the new file in dynamo,
• by using the code block, integer slider, curve by co-ordinates, XYZ coordinates, and point by coordinates connecting all these codes properly curve is created.

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.

ans: Created a conceptual layout of the 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.

• open the dynamo file choose the new file,
• choose the integer slider, point by coordinates, rectangle by points, set line by coordinates, wall by coordinates, and floor by coordinates.
• by using the all above commands placed in the proper alignment it should be created the wall with height as well as floor.

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

ans:

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

• choosing the interior slider array is created,
• choose the commands as select model elements, integer slider, family instance set rotation,
• first, open Revit select the columns place the columns appropriately,
• go to dynamo choose the select model elements, choose the select option to select the columns from the Revit,
• connect the elements and integer slider to the set curve option.

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

ans:

• choose the Revit file,
• go to open choose the conceptual mass, choose the file of conceptual mass,
• select it to click ok,
• create another level by using the elevation option,
• choose the spline option to create the structure as seen in the drawing,
• later set the places in spline points, and create the hexagon by using the set plane option.
• later click all spline and set plane hexagons to choose to create a solid click ok.
• later by choosing the foam change the style to triangles also change the numbers as well for better clarity.

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

ans:

Use Dynamo to work on developing a Parametric Stadium. List your parameters and use the visual programming approach to complete the modeling,

• open the Revit file as well as the dynamo file,
• choose the integer slider, point by coordinates,
• rename the integer slider as length, width, depth, top-level rotation, code block, bottom-level rotation, and levels.
• using the set by rotation, Z axis, point origin, and points by coordinates.
• by using all these codes, arranged in the proper way created the parametric stadium as shown in the figure with 10 levels.
