5)

AIM:To synchronizing the changes from the local copy to the central file of architecturl model

TOOLS USED:

PROCEDURE:

• click collobarate tool under collobarate tab
• select within your network option and click ok
• After setting the collobarate click workset
• check workset tool is it visible or not
• click synchronizine with central tool under manage tab
• click save as and choose the destination folder
• click ok

6)

AIM:open the structural model and using collobarate tools save the model as central file

TOOLS USED:

• template
• collobarate
• synchronize

PROCEDURE:

• click to open the structural model which is already created
• After setting the collobarate click workset
• choose within a network option
• click ok

• click synchronizing with central tool under manage tab
• click save as and choose the destination folder

7)

AIM:To copy the grids and levels from architectural to structural model using copy monitor tool

TOOLS USED:

1. template
2. collobarate
3. copy monitor

PROCEDURE:

• open the architectural model which we created as a central model file

• click link under manage tab
• add the structural model into the current project using link option
• click copy monitor tool under collobarate tab and choose selcet link

• selcet copy option
• tick the multiple option so that we can copy all the object in a single click
• selcet the object which we want to copy

• click the tick mark and complete the copy monitor process
• hence the objects from architectural to structure model completed successfully

IN STRUCTURAL MODE:

IN ARCHITECTURAL MODE:

8)

AIM:To creating a new file and link both architectural and structural template

TOOLS USED:

• template
• colbarate
• synchronize
• link

PROCEDURE:

1. open revit application
2. selcet new and choose construction template

1. click collobarate tool under collabarare tab
2. selcet within your network option and click ok
3. after setting the collobarate click workset
4. check workset tool is visible or not
5. click synchronize with central tool under manage tab
6. click save as and choose the destination folder
7. click ok

1. after creating the collobaration and click save as
2. choose destination folder and rename it
3. click link under manage tab
4. add the structural and architectural model into the current project using link option
5. click ok
6. click save as and save it

RESULT:

STRUCTURAL STRUCTURE:

ARCHITECTURAL AND STRUCTURAL COMBINED STRUCTURE:

9)

YES,my structural and architectural model are matching in the construction template created. Therefore my week 6 challege is set up for project 2.

FOR CONSTRUCTION MODEL:

• site access
• logistics and storage
• quality control
• outstanding contract details
• outstanding design -related challenges
• health and safety

FOR ARCHITECTURAL MODEL:

• schematic design
• design development
• construction document
• bidding
• construction administration

FOR STRUCTURAL MODEL:

The primary objective of structural analysis and design is to produce a structure capable of resisting all applied loads without failure during its intended life .if improperly designed .elements of a structure would fail causing serious consequenses such as large expense or ultimately losses in lives which cannot be compared with any cost.

once the architectural engineer sets the function and layout of the structure,the role of the structural engineer begins which can be summarized in the following steps to develop a safe ,functional and economic structures.
