IIshant Kanojiya27 Dec 2021

1. AIM:- Use the project file created from Week 2. Use it for this assignment. Based on your layout from week 2, use the floor tool under the architecture tab and select the floor with appropriate material and thickness using the property browser to create a layout in the Ground floor level. Align the floor plan with grids created from week 2

PROCEDURE:-

open week 2 assignment
select gride > specify gride> left to right as number>go to the top to bottom with alphabet counting
select floor command>select properties >select generic 12" floor>open edit > duplicate>edit thickness 4">specify material >select concrete, Lightweight>pess ok
select pick line> select boundary lines> select finishes edit

RESULT:-

The floor is created 4" thick concrete, lightweight floor.

2. AIM:- 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?

PROCEDURE:-

select wall 12" brick wall>select edit > duplicate >edit thickness 9" >select material>press ok
select wall> select pick line select external walls>select basic brick wall 9"> select pick lines select internal wall >select basic brick wall 4">press ok
height of the wall is 12'
the wall is unconnected is used
A:- Based on my observation unconnected wall is more beneficial because I see my mistake in levels, if the wall is connected, I can't find my mistake at a time.
B:- By height is more convenient for wall modeling.

RESULT:-

The wall is sketched, the height of the wall 12', thickness 9" external, 4" internal, the material is a brick.

3. AIM:- Copy the model elements ( wall, floor ) modeled 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

PROCEDURE:-

Go to modify tab>select copy >select all element on ground floor>go to the first floor>go to paste option>select aligned to selected levels>press enter
all elements of the ground floor are copied into the first floor

4. AIM:- 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 examples. You can use them or use your measured entities to create your model based on your layout. You may include entry walkways, Patios, or Guest
rooms based on your creativity and purpose of modeling. Convert units if you are using the metric system

PROCEDURE:-

SELECT wall >select pick lines >select thickness as 4">brick wall
every area in square feet given in image

RESULT

partition is created on pickles

5. AIM:- Based on the 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

a. Place Doors and windows in the wall at appropriate locations
b. The Living Room must include a furniture set, couch table, and TV desk and shelf cabinets
c. The Dining Room must include a table and chairs serving the purpose of eating
d. Bed Room must include a bed set, shelf, lighting, and individual study desk and chair
e. Restroom should include bathtub and plumbing fixtures discussed in class
f. The kitchen should include countertops, gas stove cabinets, and shelves to store food items
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

PROCEDURE:-

select insert tab >go to load families>select the elements as per requirement >press ok/open
go to families in the project browser>select category >select element>drag the cursor placed where you want
