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

Aim: To create sinusoidal points, curve and surface over the curve by using Dynamo in Revit.

Introduction: To create sinusoidal points, curve and surface over the curve by using Dynamo in Revit.

Procedure:

Step1:

To create sinusoidal points

• Open a revit architecture template from the manage tab open the dynamo window
• Now add the three integer slider parameters from the search bar
• Next add point by coordinate and range math.sin and product

• Next give the slider value and cod block value as 50 link the parameters to create the sinusoidal curve points

Step2:

To create line over the point

• Now the add parameters nurb by points and list
• Link the coordinate points with the nurb point and nurb points with the list parameter

Step3:

To add surface the curve

• Now take the surface parameter and link list to surface parameter

Result:

• From the above steps we created the sinusoidal point and join them with the line next assign the surface to it

• assign the surface to it

Aim: To create a conceptual layout of floor plan in dynamo by using appropriate model elements like, wall parameters and sliders to slide height of wall and length.

Introduction: To create a conceptual layout of floor plan in dynamo by using appropriate model elements like, wall parameters and sliders to slide height of wall and length. By using Revit.

Procedure:

Step1:

To create the floor layout points

• Open the dynamo window from revit manage tab
• From the search tool add the parameter two integer slider, and 4 point by coordinates
• Now connect the sliders with points

• The layout points has been created

Step2:

To create the lines over the point

• From the search tool add the 4 parameter of line by coordinate and add list create
• Now connect the points with line and line to list

• the line over the points has been created

Step 3:

To create the walls

• Now add the codes like level, wall type, integer slider, and wall by curve and height
• Next assign the wall type as 12” and level 1 slider value as 10
• Now connect the parameters

• To see the walls cross check in the revit
• The wall has been created

Step 4:

To create the floor

• Now add the floor type and floor by outline and level
• Now connect the floor type and level

• From the revit we can cross check the floor created

Aim: To create a array of model element in Revit. By using to vary the property of model element. Use the slider or code block

Introduction: To create a array of model element in Revit. By using to vary the property of model element. Use the slider or code block

Procedure:

Step1:

• Open the revit softer from the architecture tab select the architecture column and place the 4 architecture column

Step2:

• Open the dynamo from the manage tab and select the new dynamo work place
• From the search bar add three parameters as select model element, rotation, and slider

• Next assign the slider value and select the elements from the revit work space
• Now connect the parameters as shown

• Now open the revit work space for cross check the components are rotated at 45 degree

Result:

Aim: To create a conceptual mass in revit and develop a parametric column and apply the surfaces similar to used in parametric walkway modelling.

Introduction: To create a conceptual mass in revit and develop a parametric column and apply the surfaces similar to used in parametric walkway modelling.

Procedure:

Step1:

• Open Revit work space from the file select the new option from the select the conceptual mass option
• The conceptual mass family workspace will opens

• Now go elevation option and create a new level of 12’

Step 2:

• From the tool bar go create option and select the spline through point

• Now mark the points on work space as shown
  

• Step 3:

  • Select 3D view from the tool bar select the set plan option
  • Select the point and set the plan

• Now from the toolbar select the polygon option to create a polygon keep the cursor at center of point and give height as 12’

Step 4:

• To create a solid surface
• Frist click on the curve and then by selecting the polygon option
• From the toolbar click on the create form option

• A solid surface is will form over the curve as shown

Step 5:

• To create tringle pattern over the surface of the curve
• Select the total solid form from the toolbar click on the divide surface option

• Then select the solid surface option from the property browser select the triangle bent option

• The triangle bent will form the over the solid surface

Aim: To develop the stadium by using the dynamo

Introduction: To develop the stadium by using the dynamo. By using the Revit.

Procedure:

Step1:

• Open a new revit template then from the manage tab open new dynamo workspace
• Next from the search tab add as two sliders and a cod block as shown

• Next assign the level and floor and connect it
• Now add the two parameters points and origin
• Now connect the cod block to it

• The points has been added to z axis in dynamo work space

Step 3:

• Now add the four sliders and name it as width, length, top, and bottom
• Next add the rectangle parameters
• Now connect the width and length to rectangle

• The rectangle are create at dynamo work space

Step 4:

• Now add the new cod block as bottom, top, and level
• Next add origin and z axis
• Next connect it with the cod block

• The block are created at dynamo work space 5 levels with at height of 10 from level.

Step 5:

• Now adding surface to it
• Search the poly surface
• Next connect it with geometry as shown
  
  

• The surface has been create at dynamo work space

Result:

With the above steps we created the parametric stadium by using dynamo.
