Usage of Collaborate tool in REVIT

1.)

Aim

• To Open an architectural template. Using the Manage tab set project base point and project shared coordinates for the project

Procedure

• To create project shared coordinates
• Open arch tab
• Open manage tab
• Click on project coordinate and then specific shared coordinates
• In north/south type 0'0"
• In east/west 0'0"

Result

• The project base and shared coordinates are created

2.)

AIM

• To 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.

Procedure

• OPen a new file
• Click on structural template
• Go to manage tab>project coordinates>shared coordinates
• In north/south type 0'0"
• In east/west type 0'0"

Result

• The project parameters are created in structural trmplate

3.)

Aim

• To 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)

Procedure

• Open the architectural template file in revit
• Select the collabrate tab and select collabrate
• Two otion will appear on the screen
• Select the option within the network and press

Result

• The coordinate model central model using collabrate tool.

4.)

Aim

• To Create the Grids Longitudinal and Transverse pattern for the project similar to the task done in Week 2

Procedure

• Open the architectural template file in revit.
• Go to architectural tab>datu tab>grids
• Draw the grids in transverse an longitudinal direction accordingly to the plan of the project.
• Rename the grids as per standards

Result

• The grids are drawn.

5.)

Aim

• To Synchronize the changes from the local copy to the central file of the architectural model.

Procedure

• Open the file in revit
• Select the mange tab and synchronose tab and click ok
• The drawingf will be synchronised with thew central file

Result

• The synchronise is done.

6.

Aim

• ToOpen the structural model and use the collaborate tools to save the model as a central file.

Procedure

• Open the structural template in the revit.
• Select the collabrate tab and select collabrate
• Open the structural model and using the collabrate tools to save the model as a central file
• select the collabrate tab and select collabrate
• Select the collabrate with i9n trhe network

Result

• The model is synchronised

7.)

Aim

• To 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.

Procedure

• Open the arch template tab and select collabrate tab select copy monitor and select link so my structural drawing is linked.
• Select the grids and levels and select multiple and select copy
• Select the finish commend
• open the structural template file and coloumns will be found in structural template

Result

8.)

Aim

• To 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.

Procedure

• Open the new file and save it as construction template
• slect the collabratetab and collabrate file as central file
• Select the manage tab and slect manage link
• Select both architectural and structural template and press ok
• Both the file will be opned in the combined one.

9.)

Aim

• To create 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.

Procedure

• Open the architectural template and manage tab
• In the manage tab slect the manage links and select the structural template drawing both the grids will appear in the aech template and it is not conincing
• Select the arch grid and select acquire coordinated and select the arch template grid.
• Select the position icon and click relocate position
• Selectr the eintersection point of the grid
• The grids will be positioned

10.)

Aim

To 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
