AIM-11: What is the Analyze toolbar used in Revit? How it is beneficial for design and modeling

INTRADUCTION:Revit is a building information modeling software used across many professions, including architects, structural engineers, designers, and contractors. As an Autodesk product, Revit makes working with important AutoCAD drawings simple and easy.

DETAILS: 

• analyze tool bar is a stractural tool bar it use for the stractural analyse building 
• it is usefull for apply the loads and adjust loads 
• apply the boundary conditions to building what we design
• analyzing tool bar included the 
• 

1. boundary conditions
2. loads   
3. load cases
4. load combinations 

AIM-12: What are the links that Revit supports to be linked to the model 

INTRADUCTION:Revit is a building information modeling software used across many professions, including architects, structural engineers, designers, and contractors. As an Autodesk product, Revit makes working with important AutoCAD drawings simple and easy.

DETAILS: 

REVIT LINK:

• Link another revit model to the current model.
• you can limk models together to specify the relateive locations of individual buildings on a compus or to co-ordinate efforts across disciline (architectural,stractural, and engineering)

LINK IFC:

• Links an ifc file to the current project to reference its information for additional design work.
• if you later make change to the orginal ifc file and reload the link the project update  to reflect the ifc file changes
• before linking an ifc file use open  ifc options to specify the project template to use and to load a file that maps ifc classes to revit categories.

LINK CAD:

•  links a cad file to the currwet revit project  linking is simkiler to having an xref in autocad when the original linked file file changes these changes are reflected in the file when you reloaded the project.

AIM-13: Why do you need the Collaborate tab in Revit? How it supports modeling and its efficiency

INTRADUCTION:Revit is a building information modeling software used across many professions, including architects, structural engineers, designers, and contractors. As an Autodesk product, Revit makes working with important AutoCAD drawings simple and easy.

DETAILS: 

collaboration tab in revit enables the work shareing. through work sharing uses on same local area network  together in a same revit model . so this is how we need to collaborate option in revit 

COLLABORATE 

• work together 
• cloud sharing 
• work shareing
• central model.
