Creating Walls, Partition walls and Floors for a residential layout using REVIT
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
ANS:-
AIM:- To create the floor for a previous layout
Procedure:- In architecture tab for the previous plan i created the floor plan.
1. by selecting boundaries by choosing floor in ARCHITECTURE TAB AND BY choosing pick point in architecture tab, i created the floor.
2. by using property browser and edit type option i was choose the suitable material and thickness.
Result:- finally i got to know about how to choose the floor for a plan.
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?
Ans:-
Aim:- To change the properties of wall
Procedure:- go to property browser after selecting the wall and choose the required material type in edit type option and reate the required thickness.
The benifit of associated wall is that if you want to edit the height of floor suddenly then the wall height will also change.
the height opion is convenient for modelling wall because of offsets.
Result:- Finally i got to know about the modification of wall sections by using REVIT.
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:- To create the multilevel building by using revit.
Procedure:- select the over all plan and copy to clip board and select the paste option to required level.
Result:- I got to know about the floor copying by uing revit.
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
Aim:- To create the room names by using annotation
Procedure:-
1. By selecting the room in architecture tab and then apply it to all rooms.

g. The wash/storage room can include washing machines and shelves to store clothes
All the components are available in Revit Library. Use them to place at appropriate locations to add details to your model. Use 3D navigation to check the model and its authenticity on a real time basis to verify the model
Aim:- To fix the interiors required for home
Procedure:-
1.By using inset tab and then go to load families select the required furniture,lightings,plumbing and so on.
