REVIT_USAGE OF COLLABORATE TOOL_WEEK 6 :
- N.KEERTHANA
AIM: To learn the use of collaborate tool in revit and learn about work-sharing(enabling simultaneous working on the model) and working in a cloud.
INTRODUCTION: In this week of course, we learn how to use the collaborate tool and the advantages of using the collaborate tool and also the process of work-sharing, which enables us work simultaneously on the model i.e, it allows different disciplines to work on a project simultaneously to increase the efficiency of the project and reduce the time.
In the collaborate tab we have various tools such as collaborate, synchronize with central, relinquish all mine, copy monitor, etc., with which the Revit software allows us to work on a project simultaneously on various works.
In this challenge we learn how to work simultaneously on the works related to Architectural and Structural disciplines, in a project (model), by using manage links tool and linking the projects by shared coordinates and making a central model.
1) Open an architectural template. Using the Manage tab set project base point and project shared coordinates for the project
2) Open another new file but with a structural template. Using the manage tab set project parameters the same as the architectural model. Copy the parameters from the architectural model to the structural template or enter the parameters manually into the structural model
3) Re-open the architectural model. Using the tools under the Collaborate tab make the architectural model a central model (enabling simultaneous working on the model)
4) Create the Grids Longitudinal and Transverse pattern for the project similar to the task done in Week 2
5) Synchronize the changes from the local copy to the central file of the architectural model.
6) Open the structural model and use the collaborate tools to save the model as a central file.
7) Under the Collaborate tab, select the grids and levels from the architectural model, and using Copy Monitor try to copy the grids to the structural model. See what happens when the copy monitored grid is moved around in the structural model
8) Create another new file with a construction template. Save the new file as a central model. This file will include both architectural and structural model. Under the manage tab, Click manage links to link both architectural and structural files. Save the file and close all the files.
9) Are the grids from structural and architectural model matching in the construction template created? If yes the model is set up for project 2. If not work on the shared parameters and linking options under Manage links
( Hint: origin to origin, by shared coordinates or by project base point to base point ) to link the models in an appropriate manner)
10) List a flow chart of a project tree set up in terms of Construction model, Architecture & Structure model, in this exercise and understand how many people can work on the same project using Revit simultaneously
Construction model - Includes Architectural model and Structural model
