REVIT_ Scheduling & Estimation_Week 9
1) Use the shortcut keys in Revit discussed in class to complete the following tasks and list them below
a. Using 3D model create a section box
b. To create similar doors and windows in a floor plan layout
c. To reduce the thickness of lines visible in plan views
d. To apply override settings to a floor in the model section view
e. To increase the range of visibility in a plan view
f. To select the previously selected items
g. To add annotations to the model views
h. To bring the model elements in line
i. To rotate the model elements
j. To move an object to another location
k. To copy a model element
l. To mirror an element about an axis
m. To create an array of model elements
a. Using 3D model create a section box = BX
b. To create similar doors and windows in a floor plan layout = CS
c. To reduce the thickness of lines visible in plan views = TL
d. To apply override settings to a floor in the model section view = EOD
e. To increase the range of visibility in a plan view = VR
f. To select the previously selected items = CTRL+<
g. To add annotations to the model view = DI
h. To bring the model elements in line = AL
i. To rotate the model elements = RO
j. To move an object to another location =MV
k. To copy a model element = CO/CC
l. To mirror an element about an axis = MM
m. To create an array of model elements = AR
2) Using Revit and the project used from week 6 to 8 prepare a schedule for the following
a. Walls
b. Doors
c. Windows
d. Material – Concrete/Wood
AIM: To prepare schedule for the following
TOOLS REQUIRED: 1) View 2) schedule 3) schedule quantities.
PROCEDURE:
1) Open the revit file
2) in the view bar select the schedule option and click on schedule quantities.
3) select the walls, columns. doors and select the things which we want to display from the scheduled properties
4) click ok
RESULT:






3) Using Revit Calculate area and volume of each room in the model with appropriate room tags applied to each room. Prepare a schedule report for area and volume of each room.
AIM: To calculate area and volume of each room in the model with appropriate room tags applied to each room and to prepare a schedule report for area and volume of each room.
TOOLS REQUIRED: 1) View 2) schedule
PROCEDURE:
1) Open the revit file
2) select the schedule option in the view tab
3) select the rooms and parameters like area and volume.
4) click on Ok
RESULT:

4) Using the same schedule using the unit cost rate for materials available in the internet, prepare total cost of materials used in the project
a. Total Cost of Materials
b. Individual Material Take off
AIM: To prepare total cost of materials used in the project
TOOLS REQUIRED: 1) View 2) schedule
PROCEDURE:
1) Open the revit file.
2) select the schedule option from the view tab and select material take off.
3) select the required parameter.
4) select the total cost and define the formula for total cost.
RESULT:




5) Using the concept of Visual Programming discussed in class, list a flowchart for the following scenario
a. How to decide framings for a structure using Dynamo ?
b. If there is no water coming from the pipes
c. If request for money from client has been declined for the project
