Usage of Collaborate tool in REVIT

1 Ans:

Aim: To set the base point of the project using the manage tab and project shared coordinates for the project.

Procedure:

  • First, open the Revit
  • Now select the Architectural Template

  • Now Workspace opens
  • Now in architectural tab->In datum->select grid

  • Now draw the grid lines as shown
  • Now select horizontal grid line and change the name to A and select vertical grid line and name it as 1

  • Now you get grid lines with naming 1 and A as shown

  • Now go to manage tab->in project location->click on coordinates and select specify coordinates at the point as shown

  • Now select horizontal line and give 0'0" as shown

  • Now select vertical line and give 0'0" as shown

  • Now save the project as shown

Result:

We have done with setting base point of the project using the manage tab and project shared coordinates for the project.

2 ans:

Aim: To set the parameters of a new structural template same as the architectural model

Procedure:

  • First, open the Revit
  • Now select the structural Template

  • Now Workspace opens
  • Now in architectural tab->In datum->select grid

  • Now draw the grid lines as shown

  • Now select horizontal grid line and change the name to A and select vertical grid line and name it as 1

  • Now you get grid lines with naming 1 and A as shown

  • Now go to manage tab->in project location->click on coordinates and select specify coordinates at the point as shown

  • Now select horizontal line and give 0'0" as shown

  • Now select vertical line and give 0'0" as shown

  • Now save the project as shown

Result:

We have done with setting the base point of the project using the manage tab and project shared coordinates for the project.

3 ans:

Aim: To collaborate the architectural model as a central model

Procedure:

  • Open the architectural template which is created in 1st question
  • Now in collaborate, tab->select collaborate as shown

  • Now a new window opens
  • Now select collaborate within your network and click ok

  • Now click on save

Result:

Now we have collaborated the architectural model as a central model

4 ans:

Aim: To create a longitudinal and transverse pattern for the project similar to the task done in week 2

Procedure:

  • Open the Revit software
  • now select the architecture template
  • Now we get workspace
  • Now in architectural tab ->in datum->select grid

  • Now draw vertical grid with spacing of 20' each as shown

  • Change the names as shown

  • Now draw a horizontal grid with a spacing of 20' each as shown

Result:

  • Hence the grid is created

5 ans:

Aim: To synchronize the changes from the local copy to the central file of an architectural model.

Procedure:

  • Open the architectural template which is collaborated
  • Now go to collaborate tab->in synchronizing -> select synchronize with central and select synchronize and modify settings as shown

  • Now a synchronize with central dialogue box opens as shown

Result:

Now we have done with synchronize

6 ans:

Aim: To collaborate the structural model as a central model

Procedure:

  • Open the structure which is created in 2nd question
  • Now in collaborate, tab->select collaborate as shown

  • Now a new window opens
  • Now select collaborate within your network and click ok

  • Now click on save

Result:

  • Now we have collaborated the structural model as a central model

7 ans:

Aim: 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.

Procedure:

  • Now open the architectural tab and go to collaborate->in cordinate-> click on cop/monitor->select select link

  • Now copy option and select multiple and select the grid lines

  • Now select finsih
  • Now open structral template and we could see the same grids again

Result:Task has been completed successfully

8 ans:

Aim: To create a construction template and save it as a central model and link both architectural and structural files

Procedure

  • Open Revit software
  • Now select a new project as a construction template

  • Now we get a new workspace
  • Now go manage tab->in manage project ->select manage links

  • Now manage links tab opens as shown

  • Now click on add
  • Now load the architectural file as shown

  • Now load the structural file as shown

  • Now click ok

9 ans:

Aim: To match the grids of the architectural and structural template if not matched using shared coordinates and linking options under manage links

Procedure:

  • Open the file that which has been created in 8 ans

  • Now go to manage->In project location->click on a position and select relocate the project

  • Now match the grids of the architectural and structural template as shown

Result: we have done with matching both grid lines
