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

ANS 1)

The shortcut keys for the above mentioned tasks are :

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 + <- ( CONTROL PLUS LEFT ARROW)

g. To add annotations to the model views = 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

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 A SCHEDULE FOR WALLS DOORS WINDOWS MATERIAL ETC FOR THE PROJECT WHICH WAS CREATED LAST WEEK

TOOLS AND COMMANDS:

  • View
  • Schedule
  • Schedule properties
  • Schedule quantities

PROCEDURE:

STEP-1:Open the architectural template which was created in week 6 and week 7 project

STEP-2:Click on view tab and select schedules

STEP-3:

Select schedule quantities from options displayed

STEP-4:Then a dialog box appears then select all require all elements

STEP-5:Seelect components like doors from dialog box and click ok and select the items like height width etc to be diisplay and click ok

step-6:then schedule wiill be dialpyed

STEP-7:Do the same process with walls windows etc

WINDOWS:

WALLS:

Do the same process with materials and if any other required

RESULT: ALL SCHEDULES FOR WALLS DOORS WINDOWS ETC ARE SUCCESFULLY PREPARED FOR PREVIOUSLY CREATED PROJECT FILE

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 AND COMMANDS:

  • View
  • Schedules
  • Schedules/Qunatities
  • area
  • volume

PROCEDURE:

STEP-1:Open the architectural template which was created in week 6 and week 7 project

STEP-2:Click on view tab and select schedules

STEP-3:

Select schedule quantities from options displayed

STEP-4:Then a dialog box appears and select room from that click ok

STEP-5:Select area and volume name count

STEP-6:then area schedule is displyed

STEP-7:to calculate volume select calculate tab from tab

STEP-8: A dialog box appears then fill the details like entering formula

STEP-9:Click ok

RESULT:A SCHEDULLE OF AREA AND VOLUME OF EACH ROOM IS SUCCESFFULLY PREPARED AND AREA AND VOLUME EACH ROOM IS CALUCULATED BY ROOM TAG

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 AND INDIVUDUAL MATERIALS TAKE OFF SCHEDULE

TOOLS AND COMMANDS:

  • View
  • Schedules
  • Schedules/Qunatities
  • area
  • volume
  • Total cost materials

PROCEDURE:

STEP-1:Open the architectural template which was created in week 6 and week 7 project

STEP-2:Click on view tab and select schedules

STEP-3:

Select schedule quantities from options displayed

STEP-4:Then a dialog box appears and select material option from that click ok

STEP-5:Select require elements to prepare schedule

STEP-6:Click ok

STEP-8:To caluculate total cost select calculations tab

STEP-9:A dialog box apperas then fill the require details

STEP-10:Click ok

STEP-11: wall material total cost schedule is prepared

STEP-12:Now select the view tab and choose materials take off

STEP-13:Adialog box appears select required materials LIKE DOORS and click ok

STEP-14:Then material take off schedule will be displayed

STEP-15: Do the same process with other material take off

WALL TAKE OFF SCHEDULE:

Furniture materials take off sxhedule:

RESULT:ALL INDIVUDUAL MATERIAL TAKE OFF AND TOTAL COST OF MAYTERIALS SCHEDULE IS SUCCESSFULLY PREPARED
