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.

AIM :

To create a set of sinusoidal points and create a curve and create a surface out of the curve.

PROCEDURE :

  • Open “REVIT 2024” software
  • Go to the “NEW PROJECT “
  • Select the “ARCHITECUTE TEMPLATE”
  • U will get one “NEW PAGE”
  • Than Go to the ”MANAGE TAP”
  • There is option called “DYNAMO”
  • Click the “DYNAMO” option
  • Once you clicked u will get dialog box called “AGGREMENT TO COLLECT USABILITY DATA”
  • Click “CONTINUE”
  • Then u will get dynamo dashboard
  • Select “NEW” option
  • Than u will get “NEW WINDOW “
  • Than go to the “search” Option and
  • Type “INTEGEAR SLIDER”
  • Than “copy” and past it two time
  • Than increase the number each “INTEGER SLIDER” as per the answer
  • Than type “RANGE “ option from the search box .
  • Than connect the “INTEGEAR SLIDER” to “RANGE “
  • Like first as “START” , second one as ”END” , third one as “STEP”
  • Go to the “SEARCH” box
  • Type “POINT BY COORDINATES”
  • Then we need to one more “POINT BY COORDINATES” click “CTRL+C” and “CTRL+V” option
  • Than Go to the “SEARCH” box
  • Type “CODE BLOCK”
  • Than Go to the “SEARCH” box
  • Type “MATH.SIN”
  • Than connect the “RANGE “ to “PIONT.BY COORDINATES “
  • than u will get the “POINTS” first
  • provide the “CODE BLOCK” as “50”
  • than connect “RANGE” with “MATH.SIN”
  • we need to connect “RANGE “ with second “POINT.BY COORDINATES”
  • Go to “SEARCH BOX” type “PRODUCT”

  • Than select “ NURBS BY CONTROL POINT”
  • Just “COPY” and “PAST”
  • connect “POINT BY COORDINATE” to “ NURBS BY CONTROL POINT”
  • u will get line in the curve
  • similarly connect another “POINT BY COORDINATE” to “ NURBS BY CONTROL POINT”
  • u will get line in the curve
  • Go to the “LIST” option
  • Click “+” u will get one more “ITEM”
  • Just connect both “ NURBS BY CONTROL POINT” to “ITEM” one and two
