REVIT_ Plan, 3D View & Structural Drawings_Project 2

1) Select the type of structure you want to build from one of the three below
a. Multi Unit Residential Apartment
b. Office Buildings
c. School

Ans. I want to build a Multi Unit Residential Apartment

2) Assume reasonable assumptions for geographic and location details for your project modeling. Based on assumptions and type of structure selected identify the modeling requirements from NBC

Ans. Details of assumptions for geographic and location details of my project are:

1. It resides in Residential Area
2. It is plain Area
3. width of the road is 30'

Modelling Requirements as per NBC:

1. All the sizes of the room are taken as per NBC
2. The Ventilation for each room is provided sufficiently
3. Hieght of the building is as per NBC

3) Using the structural model, include the following components based on the type of structure selected
a. Foundation – Isolated / Wall/Matt Foundation
b. Columns
c. Beams Connected to Columns
d. Roof Framing/ Truss
e. Floor / Decks
f. Floor Openings for Elevators and Stairs

Aim: To use the structural model and include the components like foundation,coloumns etc. based on the type of structure selected

Commands Used:

1. Grids
2. Levels
3. Columns
4. Isolated Foundations
5. Beams
6. Structural Floor
7. shaft for stairs and lift
8. Synchronise with central

Procedure:

1. Open structural template from week 6
2. Draw the Structural Grids at equal intervals both longitudnal and transverse
3. From elevation draw levels at 12' from each other and name them as ground floor, first floor etc.
4. Select Columns at grids and add coloumns of height 12'
5. Select isolated foundations from structural tab and add to columns at Footing level -4'6'' from ground
6. select the required beam and add along the columns
7. Select structural floor and add by drawing lines to the ground floor
8. Copy the columns,beams and floor to the all the other levels
9. Provide shaft for stairs and lift using Structural shaft.
10. Synchronise the project with central file using synchronise with central

Result: Using the structural model and including the components like foundation,coloumns etc. based on the type of structure selected is done.

4) Using the architectural model, include the following components based on the type of structure selected
a. Wall Layout with appropriate material and finishing
b. Exterior façade with fancy finish
c. Interior partition walls to size rooms
d. Components to add details to room ( Desk, Chair, Lighting, Plumbing fixtures)
e. Add components such as stairs Elevators
f. Have at-least one side of building with curtain walls and glass panels
g. Include interior and exterior lighting fixtures
h. Place proper topographic components from outside ( Trees, Parking, Plants) to add details to the model

Aim: To use architectural model and include the components like wall,stairs,glass panels etc. based on the type of structure selected

Commands Used:

1. Wall
2. Add components
3. Stair
4. Railing
5. Copy
6. Synchronise with central

Procedure:

1. Open Architectural template from week 6
2. We find grids created in structural model
3. Select the copy monitor tool and select copy and select the grids
4. Now, go to the visibility graphics and select custom in annotation, then off the grids
5. Now we see grids of architectural only
6. Select the elevation view and do the same as of grids to the level
7. Select all the grids and pin them
8. Go to Architecture tab and select exterior wall and add to columns from outside in ground floor
9. Add Glass storefront as per plan
10. Add interior partion walls as per plan
11. Add the required components like doors,windows,tables etc. by loading components from insert tab
12. Add stairs in the place of shaft opening using stairs from architecture tab
13. Load and add the required the required lighting fixtures
14. Add railing wherever required as per plan from architecture tab
15. Copy all the required components from ground floor to other floors
16. Add ceiling at top of third floor
17. Then add roof to the top of ceiling
18. Now, synchronise the project with central file using synchronise with central

Result: Using the architectural model and including the components like wall,stairs,glass panels etc. based on the type of structure selected is done.

5) Provide set of drawings in architectural and structural model to list the following details with categories and appropriate sheet templates included
a. Floor Plans with Annotations
b. Elevations
c. Sections

Aim: To create sheet templates with floor plans,elevations and section views

Commands Used:

1. View
2. Sheet
3. Place view

Procedure:

1. Go to view tab
2. Select sheet and load sheet created during project 1
3. Select place view ,choose the required view such as first floor etc. and add to the sheet
4. Change the required details on the sheet
5. Create the required no. of sheets in the same manner

Result: Creating sheet templates with floor plans,elevations and section views is done.

6) Using the Rendering settings, Render images of 3D model produced and include the rendered images to the drawing sheets
a. Rendering from interior rooms
b. Rendering from out showing topographic features
c. Rendering through structural framing

Aim: To Render images of 3D model produced and include the rendered images to the drawing sheets

Commands Used:

1. View
2. Camera
3. Render
4. export/add to project
5. Sheet
6. place view

Procedure:

1. Go to view tab and select camera
2. Place the camera at required position and click on it
3. We see the image from camera
4. Now, click on render in view tab
5. Select the required Options and click on render
6. Now select sheet and load sheet created during project 1
7. Select place view ,choose the required rendered image such as kitchen etc. and add to the sheet
8. Change the required details on the sheet
9. Create the required no. of sheets in the same manner

Result: Rendering images of 3D model produced, and including the rendered images to the drawing sheets is done.
