1 ans:

Aim:

To create a floor plan and need to apply the materials and thickness using the property browser
To Align the floor plan grids created from week 2

Procedure:

Open Revit software
Now open the file we have drawn in week2 as shown

Now select the floor as shown

Now click the edit type from the properties browser as shown below.

Now type properties tab will be visible on the screen, shown below

Now click on duplicate and change the name
Now we change the material type by clicking the edit option as shown below
Now the edit assembly tab appears.
Now we select the material type in the 2nd row as shown below

Now the material browser appears, then select the material type as wood flooring

Finally, the material is applied to the floor as shown

Now keep the plan in 2D
Now draw the grid lines

Result:

2 ans:

Aim:

To create a floor plan and need to apply the materials and thickness using the property browser for walls

Verify using the property browser to see if the top and bottom of the walls are constrained

Need to understand the benefits of connecting walls with the associated levels rather than being Unconnected

Need to know which option is convenient for modeling walls, By Height or by Depth.

Procedure:

Open Revit software
Now open the file we have drawn in week2
Now select the floor as shown

Now click the edit type from the properties browser as shown below.

Now type properties tab will be visible on the screen, shown below

Now click on duplicate and change the name
Now we change the material type by clicking the edit option as shown below
Now the edit assembly tab appears.
Now we select the material type in the 2nd row as shown below

Now the material browser appears, then select the material type as stone

Finally, the material is applied to the floor as shown

a.Based on our observation. What is beneficial for connecting walls with associated levels rather than being Unconnected

Now select the wall as shown

Now in the properties tab, we get wall constraints
Now in-wall constraints go to Top constraints and select level 2 as shown

Now go to elevation view so that we can see that the elevation of the wall is created from a base level 1 to top level 2

If the change the value of level 2 to 50'. we can see that the wall created also moves to a height of 50' as shown

on the other hands If the walls are unconnected. if we are changing the level the walls remain in the height given during drafting

Now select wall as shown

Now in the properties tab, we get wall constraints
Now in-wall constraints go to Top constraints and select Unconnected as shown

Now the initial level is 10'

Now change 10' to 40' we can see the wall remains unmoved

so connecting the wall is convenient as it can be moved with levels

Which option convenient for modeling walls by height or by depth

When we create a wall two options will be available as shown below

Depth: if we are giving depth, it indicates height downwards from the level selected.
Fisrt select wall and while drawing the wall select Depth as shown

Now select the depth and give 20' depth
Now in elevation view, we can observe it

Height: if we are giving Height, it indicates height upwards from the level selected.
First select wall and while drawing the wall select height as shown

Now select the Height and give 20' height
Now in elevation view, we can observe it

Result:

3 ans:

Aim: To use of copy and paste and aligning the plan to other levels

Procedure:

Keep the model in 3d view
Now select the 3d model
Now go to modify bar and click on copy command as shown

Now go to paste and select aligned to selected levels

Now select level 2 and click ok

Delete the top door

Result:

Now the ground plan is copied and paste and aligned to the second level

4 ans:

Aim: To create separate rooms within our residential unit using the interior partition walls

Procedure:

First, select the interior a walls as shown

Now in the property tab change the wall type to partition wall as shown

Now interior partition walls are created

Result:

5 ans:

Aim: To insert the components in appropriate locations to add details to the residential model, based on the week 2 assignment

Procedure:

Now open 3d model
Now go to architecture tab-->Place a component-> load families

Now go to architecture tab-->Place a component-> load families->add furnitures,plumbing fixtures,kitchen appliances,etc
Now go to architecture tab-->Place a component->Now go to properties and add the cabinet

Simillarly add other components from components ->properties
Now go to view-> select camera

Now use camera to take each room photos

Bedroom

Bathroom:

Dining hall:

Kitchen:

Washroom:

Hall:

Total view of 3d model

Result:

The components in appropriate locations are added to the residential model
