Introduction to REVIT concepts

1)

Aim: To creat a new project ( Structural, Architectural and Construction template) and name the project appropriately.

tools used:

• file
• new

Procedure:

1:firstly open the Revit software and click on open which is below the model and select architectural template.

2. click on file menu which appers at top left corner ,then click on new and select project.

3.New project dialogue box will apper, click on the template files. You will be seeing differnt template files select architecture template and click on .

Result: The new project file is created and named approximately.

2)

Aim: To save the new project file, closing and opening the project by using the icons of the file toolbar.

TOOLS USED :

• FILE
• saveas
• open
• close
• project

PROCEDURE:

1.Click on the file toolbar, select save as ,

2.click on project , give file name and click on save option.

3. click on file menu and click on close icon,

4. click on file menu , click on oepn icon the dialogue box appers, select the file you want to open and click on open.

RESULT: Anew project file with the name given is saved . The file is closed by using close icon and opend by open icon.

3)

AIM: to create a rectangular layout of wall of about 40'-0'* 35'-0'. From the Architural/structural toolbar familirazie to option to draw a wall.

TOOLBAR USED:

• Architecture
• wall
• placewall
• rectangule

PROCEDURE;

1. After opening the Revite you will be seeing Architectural toolbar, then we fine wall icon, click on it.

2. Draw a rectangle by specified dimension of 40'*35'

RESULT:

The rectangle with dimensions of 40'*35' is created.

4)

AIM: To add dimensions to the layout by using Aligned option from the Annotate toolbar.

TOOLS USED :

• Annotate
• Alligned

PROCEDURE:

1. click on Annotate toolbar and select aligned icon,

2. Select two reference points and click eneter,

then the dimensions are displayed.

RESULT: The rectagle layout with the dimension is diplsyed.

5)

AIM: To switch to different types of walls by using the peoperties browser.

TOOLS USED:

• properties
• Edit type

PROCEDURE:

1. Select any wall of the drawn figureand click on properties,

click on edit type , select wall type and click ok.

RESULT: The wall changed in to the wall type which we select by using properties browser.

6)

AIM: To create a 3D view from the view toolbar and saving the view with aprropriate name.

TOOLS USED;

• View
• properties palatte
• 3D Default view

PROCEDURE:

1. click on view and select 3D view icon and select default 3D view ,

2. then click on properties we will find identity data in that click on view name ,

3. Changed the name.

RESULT : The 3D view is created successfully and the view is changed as 3D _1.

7)

AIM: To navigate through the 3D model using the view cube. orbit / pan though the model layout created.

ROOLS USED

• VIEW
• 3D view
• view cube
• navigation wheel

PROCEDURE:

1. click on viewcube which is at right corner , clik and drag to switch between standard and isometricviews of the model ,

2. click on orbit in the full navigation wheel to view in different angles. and click on the pan and drag to move the model.

RESULT: The 3D model is successfully views in differnt viewpoint by and moved by usig pan.

8)

AIM: To to switch the model to shaded, realistic, hiddenlines option by using the visibility setting option below.

TOOLS USED:

• VIEW
• 3D VIEW
• visual style
• Graphic Display option

PROCEDURE:

1. Select the view toolbar at bottom as cuboid symbol at the bottom , then the graphical display otion apperrs.

select the realistic, shaded, hidenlines.

RESULT:Now we can successfully switch the model in to diffent visuals.

9)

AIM:To turn the sun psth on and off tp view shadings in the layout created.

TOOLS USED:

• manage toolbar
• additional settings

PROCEDURE:

• Select the sun which is at the bottom left and then we can see sunsetting in which we have sunpath on and sunset off.

RESULT:Now successfully we can on and off the sunpath to the model.

10)

AIM:To enter project setting, project name, project issues date by using manage toolbar.

TOOLS USED :

• Manage toolbar
• project informaton

PROCEDURE:

Go to manage toolbar , then select project information icon, a dialague box appears . In that we can see project status , project issues data project settings enetrr them and click okay.

RESULT:The project name , project issues data and project setting are successfully done by usinng project information icon in manage toolbars.

11) What is the analyze toolbar used in Revie ? How it is benificial for design and modeling,

• Analyze toolbar helps us to analyze on our structuralbuilding . It cocnsists of differrent optins like BONDARY COCNDITIONS which help us to define line, point, area condition in the analytical model and verifies the boundary conditions family type are loaded and assigned the strucatural setting menu.
• By using the loads icon we can dd and edit the loads to the analytical and physical modesl for consistency.
• HEAATING AND COOLING LOADS prepare load analytical model.
• Create the energy analytical model and generate desing option and potential performance outcomes with insight.
• specifies the sitable geografic location for the project and examine the warning and makes changes to the model as needed to rectify.

12) What is the links that REVITE SUPPORTS TO BE LINKED TO THE MODEL?

• Link revit: we can link another revite model to the current model.
• Link IFC: It link an IFC File to the current project to refence its information for addition desing works . If we make any changes in the original IfC File reflect in the current project.
• Link CAD: Link AUTOCAD FILE to the current project. later any changes made in CAD file reflect in the curent projects.
• DWF Markup:Linls marked - up DWF file into a revit project so we can see the markup on corresponding sheets.
• Manage Links: we can also limk REvite file and CaD file ti the current project.
• Load Family : It loads a Revit family in to the current file.
• Import CAD : It import data or 3D geometry from other CAD progrms to revite project or family.

13) Why do you need the collabrote tab in REVITE? How it supports modeling and its efficiency.

• Collabrate tab is usd combine the work of different displanes in the same project.
• Revite offers multiple features to different disiplanes of engineering such as architecture, structural, mechanical, plumbing it heps to work independently on each didciplane. To complete the project it is necessary to viwe altpgether so this collabrate is uded to combine all the work to achive progress.
• It enables collabration so team members can work a model simultaniously. You can edit and sync a model in the cloud, on local area network or on a wide area net work.
