Ans: My project is on 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: My project is located at residential area, project is modeling as per NBC rules.

3)

AIM: To prepare structural model and add components to it.

TOOLS/COMMANDS USED:

Structural template

Structural tab

Gids

levels

Columns

PROCEDURE:

1: Open a file in structural template and save it with an appropriate name.

2: Select collaborate and do the collaboration and make is as a central file.

12: Specify the coordinates as 0’0” in both the grids.

13: Link the structural tab with the architectural in the manage link.

14: Now both the grids will appear under a single template.

15: Now acquire the coordinates for the linked grid.

16: Open the structural template.

17: Draw the grids at equal interval, say 12’.

18: Select the floor plan as per the drawing and copy it till roof.

19: Select the columns and change its properties of the column like size in properties tab.

20: Select footing and draw the selected footings at the columns.

21: Select the beam and draw beams connected to the columns and select the constraint to first floor as beans are at top of the floors.

22: For lift openings and staircase openings select shafts.

23: Now the structure is ready.

RESULT:

A structural model is successfully created and the components are added successfully.

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
