As an end result we changed the wall type using the property browser in the left.

6) Create a 3D view from the view toolbar and save the view with the appropriate name

Aim:- creating a 3D view of the file and saving the file by giving the name to it.

Introduction:

Procedure:-

First to change the 2D to 3D go to the view in the tool bar then we can see option.

we can see the 3D view option click on that and then click on default 3D view.

after clicking on the default 3D view you can see the change in the view.

To save this view we need to click on the corner of the globle top right of the drawing.

Then click on the save view option and give name to the view.

Result:-

As a end result our 3D view has been named and saved successfully. we can see our saved view in properties.

7) Navigate through the 3D model using the view cube. Orbit/pan through the model layout created

Aim:- Navigate to the 3D model using the view cube by using orbit/pan thought layout created.

Introduction:

Procedure:-

In this first step we are navigating through the 3D which we created. on the right hand sidee of the layout we can see the navigation bar. In that use the first icon which states the navigation tool.

once we click on that we can see this icon appear on the screen.

Then keep the curser on the orbit and select it so we can see the moment in the view while we rotate the curser. here i used orbit tool to see the ground level of the view.

by using the pan too we can move the view to any corner of the layout.

Result:-

As an end result we can use the navigation tool and use all the option as zoom to zoom the view,orbit to rotate the view as we wish to see, pan to move the view, revind to see what we have done previously.

8) Use the visibility settings option below to switch model to shaded, realistic, hidden lines options.

Aim:- To change the model visability style shades, realistic , hidden lines.

Introduction:

Procedure:-

As we got our 3D model before below the we can see the icon in that we can see visual style icon.

where we select that and we can change the type of the view.

As we can see the option above we can select one by one in the view type here i selected first Realistic, Then Hidden, them shaded in an order.

1) realistic

2) Hidden

3) Shaded

Now i changed the name and the issued then then click on ok.

Result:-

As an end result we can see the changes made in the project name date and chages to the project information.

11) What is the Analyze toolbar used in Revit? How it is beneficial for design and modeling.

Aim- To identify how analyze toolbar benificial for design and modelling.

Introduction:

Procedure:-

Analyze toolbar is used for the structural analysis of the building. by using the different tools in the we can identify how it effect the structure.

In this bar we can see icons like boundries, loads,load combination, load cases, analatyical model tools, reports and schedule, energy optimization.

This all tool helps in identify the load conditions and how it effects. how the load is bearing are in the model. space chechings in the model helps in identify the space in the model.

we can use to combine the loads and check the load combinations how it effects.

As per the design we can identify the structural components and there effect and effeciency so that we can design as the the bearing and the efficency.

This tool helps in lot of time saving process and the modelling can be done easily.

12) What are the links that Revit supports to be linked to the model?

Aim:- Identify the links which support the revit model.

Introduction:

Analysis:-

In the revit we can link the suppoting model and model in revit with out any risk.

In the inser toolbar we can identify the what are the supporting.

The support file for the revit are CAD, topography, markup,point cloud files, IFC files.

Result:-

As an result we can attach the file to revit and work on the file from the revit its simple and easy to use. while it is userfriendly and helpful to the modellers.

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

Aim:-The needs of collaberate tab and how it supports modeling and efficiency.

Introduction:

Procedure:-

Collabrate toolbar is used for group task to collabrate with groups.

1) Working togeather.

2) Cloud sharing.

3) Work sharing.

4) Central model.

This tool helps people to work togeather with a single project with out any distrubance and this changes takes palce any model is real time update.

They can share the project file and can upload to the cloud storage. In the work sharing while we share the work with the group it will create a central model which has all the elements and the properties in the project. so, that they can work togeather with the collaboration. there wont be any issues after the becouse the project has same point for every single person working on it so there won't be any issue.

In this way the Collaberate bar help in collabiration and working of the single project at a time from different location. with out any mistakes.
