Creating Walls, Partition walls and Floors for a residential layout using REVIT

Ques 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 – 1 AIM – create a floor on design of weel 2.

Procedure – 1. Open the previous model, create grid lines according to previous week.

2. go to architectural tab and select floor, select property of floor apply.

 RESULT – I have created floor for previous model.

QUES 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.

1. 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 create walls with proper material and constraints.

PROCEDURE – 1. Select architectural walls ,create walls around floor boundary.

2. select properties of walls (thickness, material)
3. apply top and bottom constraints to wall.

RESULT – I have created walls with given properties.

A – if walls will be connected to a level we can simply increase height of all walls by just simply changing height of level.

B – both methods have their individual importance but normally using BY HEIGHT is preferred.

 QUES 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.

ANS – AIM- to create same model in level 2 .

PROCEDURE – 1. Copy all model elements (wall floor, door,windows) .

2. paste them to level 2.
3. use modify tab to align elements.

RESULT – I have created my 1^st floor same as ground floor.

QUES 4) Use interior partition walls to create separate rooms within your residential unit. The model must include the following rooms

1. 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’ )
2. 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

ANS -AIM – to create partition walls in the layout.

PROCEDURE – 1. Select walls, category of walls(8” generic)and draw walls according to need.

NOTE – I have taken layout of my home(as instructed in week2) so I have taken dimensions of room as my home.

RESULT – I have creted different rooms in my layout.

QUES 5) Based on week 2 assignment, the components to be included in a residential unit were inserted to the Revit file. Place these components in appropriate locations to add details to your residential model

1. Place Doors and windows in the wall at appropriate locations
   b. The Living Room must include furniture set, couch table and TV desk and shelf cabinets

   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

ANS – AIM – to include different details and elements to model.

PROCEDURE – 1. Select door and draw in layout wherever applicable
