Creating Walls, Partition walls and Floors for a residential layout using REVIT
Ans.1.
Use the project file created from Week 2. Use it for this assignment. Based on your layout from week 2, using floor tool under architecture tab and select the floor with appropriate material and thickness using the property browser create a layout in the Ground floor Level. Align the floor plan with grids created from week 2
Aim :- Use the project file created from Week 2. Use it for this assignment. Based on your layout from week 2, using floor tool under architecture tab and select the floor with appropriate material and thickness using the property browser create a layout in the Ground floor Level. Align the floor plan with grids created from week 2

Align the floor plan with grids created from week 2
TOOLS USED
- Floor
- Pick lines
- Properties browser
Procedure :-
- Open REVIT
- Select the floor options from architectural tab and select pick lines from modify

- Now select all the boundaries of wall and click the tick mark

- Now select the material layout and edit type pop up will appear, now select the desrired texture and apply it to the walls

- Now we will gwt the desrired floor with desrired thickness and texture


Result :-
The floor of desired thickness and texture is added.

Ans.2.
Add walls based on the floor layout. Pick lines or use the draw tool to modify the boundary of walls. Use the property browser to select appropriate material and thickness for walls. After creating the walls verify using the property browser to see if the top and bottom of the walls are constrained.
a. Based on your observation, what is beneficial for connecting walls with associated levels rather than being Unconnected
b. Which option is convenient for modeling walls, By Height or By Depth?

b. Which option is convenient for modeling walls, By Height or By Depth?
TOOLS USED
- Walls
- Properties browser
Procedure :-
- The drawing which is already being drawn is taken.
- As the walls have already been done with the help of walls from architectural tab, Select the walls and change the properties browser.

- Now open in 3D view to see the thickness changes

- Now select the walls and check the top constraints and level it

- It is beneficial as walls stay connected to the level and we need not chnage the walls heights
- Find it convienent for modelling wall by height
Result :-
Checking of hright constraints and also changed the thickness of walls.
Ans.3.
Copy the model elements ( wall, floor ) modelled to Ground Floor Level and paste it aligned to First Floor Level Use modify tab to utilize copy and paste options to align
elements to a different level
Aim :- Copy the model elements ( wall, floor ) modelled to Ground Floor Level and paste it aligned to First Floor Level Use modify tab to utilize copy and paste options to align
elements to a different level
Introduction :- Copy the model elements ( wall, floor ) modelled to Ground Floor Level and paste it aligned to First Floor Level Use modify tab to utilize copy and paste options to align
elements to a different level
TOOLS USED
- Modify tab
- Copy to clipboard
Procedure :-
- Select the layout completely from the ground level/ floor

- Now using the modify tab copy the layout to the clipboard

- Now paste the layout using paste from modify option in new level

The above floors are being showned into two different color to easily differentiate
Result :-
The layout is being copy and pasted from first floor to second floor.
Ans.4.
Use interior partition walls to create separate rooms within your residential unit. The model must include the following rooms
a. Living Room/ Drawing Room ( 15’ X 18’)
b. Dining Room (9’ X 11’)
c. Bed Room ( 9’ X 12’ and 15’ X 11’)
d. Rest Room ( 10’ X 12’ )
e. Kitchen (8’ X 10’)
The above are for examples. You can use them or use your measured entities to create your model based on your layout. You may include entry walkway, Patios or Guest
rooms based on your creativity and purpose of modeling. Convert units if you are using metric system
