Creating Architectural and Structural model with 3D rendering using REVIT

1) Select the type of structure you want to build from one of the three below:
        a. Multi-Unit Residential Apartment
        b. Office Buildings
        c. School

A) I am decided to design Multi-Unit Residential Apartment in the above three options.

    A multi-unit residential apartment, also known as a multi-family dwelling or apartment building, is a type of housing structure that consists of multiple individual living units or apartments within a single building or complex. These units are designed to accommodate multiple households or families.

Multi-unit residential apartments can vary in size and configuration, ranging from small buildings with just a few units to large high-rise complexes with dozens or even hundreds of units. The apartments can be arranged in various layouts, such as studio apartments, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, or even larger configurations.

In most cases, each unit within a multi-unit residential apartment has its own separate entrance, kitchen, bathroom, and living space. However, certain amenities and facilities, such as laundry rooms, parking areas, and common areas like lobbies or recreational spaces, may be shared among the residents.

 

2) Assume reasonable assumptions for geographic and location details for your project modeling. Based on assumptions and type of structure selected identify the modeling requirements from NBC

 A)The geographical and location details for my project modeling, based on assumptions of multi-unit residential Apartments.

selected to identify the modeling requirements from NBC.

1. As above mentioned the building comes under the residential category and it can be situated in the center of

the city.

2. The project is located on the highway nearest.

3. The road width of this project is 35 Feet.

4. The height, area limitation, and safety measures are followed by the NBC.2005.

5. The height of the project is 42'.

6. This project's height in meters is 12.8 m and the road width is 10.6 m, the height of the building should not exceed 1.5 times the width of the road.

7. In the case of building height is not exceeded, so it is suitable for construction.

8. As per the NBC, the height limit will be given in NBC part V-1, (National building code).
The size of the rooms is also given in the NBC part V-1.

 

3) Using the structural model, include the following components based on the type of structure selected
        a. Foundation – Isolated / Wall/Matt Foundation
        b. Columns
        c. Beams Connected to Columns
        d. Roof Framing/ Truss
        e. Floor / Decks
        f. Floor Openings for Elevators and Stairs

AIM:- To include the following components based on the type of structure selected using the structural model.

INTRODUCTION:-

Beams and columns are two important types of structural elements that play a key role in creating a safe load path to transfer the weight and forces on a structure to the foundations and into the ground.
Beams and columns could be built using the same shapes and materials but each serves a different function and is designed differently.
A foundation is the lowest part of the building structure.
It is the engineering field of study devoted to the design of those structures which support other structures, most typically buildings, bridges, or transportation infrastructure.
It is at the periphery of the Civil, Structural, and Geotechnical Engineering disciplines and has a distinct focus on soil-structure interaction.

PROCEDURE:-

Step:-1

First, we draw the vertical and horizontal grids as shown below.
Next, we need to add the columns with the size of 450m x 450mm, as shown in the below2 figure.

Step:-2

Next, we need to add the foundations with the size of 4' x 4', as shown below.

Step:-3

Next, we turn the foundations and columns to the 3D view, as shown below.

Step:-4

Next, we need to add the beams to the layout, as shown in the below figure.

Step:-5

Next, we turn the layout to the 3D view, as shown below.
Again add the beams and columns up to the fourth-floor level, as shown below.

Step:-6

Next, we add the floors up to the fourth floor as shown in the below figure.

Step:-7

Next, we turn the 3D model to the side views, as shown in the below figure.

RESULT:-

The given components are successfully included based on the type of structure using the structural model.

 

4) Using the architectural model, include the following components based on the type of structure selected
        a. Wall Layout with appropriate material and finishing
        b. Exterior façade with fancy finish
        c. Interior partition walls to size rooms
        d. Components to add details to a room ( Desk, Chair, Lighting, Plumbing fixtures)
        e. Add components such as stairs Elevators
        f. Have at least one side of the building with curtain walls and glass panels
        g. Include interior and exterior lighting fixtures
        h. Place proper topographic components from outside ( Trees, Parking, Plants) to add details to the model

AIM:- To include the given components based on the type of structure selected using the architectural model.

INTRODUCTION:-

Partition walls are a significant component of a building design. Without partition walls, a building's plan cannot be decorative or structured.
Lighting fixtures come in a wide variety of styles for various functions.
The most important functions are as a holder for the light source, to provide directed light, and to avoid visual glare.
Some are very plain and functional, while some are pieces of art in themselves.
Nearly any material can be used, so long as it can tolerate the excess heat and is in keeping with safety codes.

PROCEDURE:-

Step:-1

We add the different materials to the wall and the finishing has been done, as shown below.

Step:-2

Next, we add the interior partition walls, as shown in the below figure.

Step:- 3

 The Components to add details to a room ( Desk, Chair, Lighting, Plumbing fixtures)

Step:- 4
  Add components such as stairs Elevators

The elevation of the stairs is shown below.

Step:- 5
  Have at least one side of the building with curtain walls and glass panels

So we provide the glass panels to the wall which connection wall of stairs.

 Step:- 6
  Place proper topographic components from outside ( Trees, Parking, Plants) to add details to the model

 

RESULT:-

The given components are successfully included based on the type of structure using the architectural model.

 

5) Provide a set of drawings in an architectural and structural model to list the following details with categories and appropriate sheet templates included
        a. Floor Plans with Annotations
        b. Elevations
        c. Sections

AIM:- To provide a set of drawings in an architectural and structural model to list the given details with categories and appropriate sheet templates included.

INTRODUCTION:-

Floor plans are the most critical element of your house plans. Drawn to scale and shown from above, floor plans illustrate how rooms, spaces, and physical features work in relation to each other within the home.
They’re the key documents that show how people will move through the space and interact with their homes.
Floor plans show the extent to which space will work for its intended purpose.
An elevation is a view of a building seen from one side, a flat representation of one view.
This is the most common view used to describe the external appearance of a building.
Each elevation is labeled in relation to the compass direction it faces, e.g. looking toward the north you would be seeing the southern elevation of the building.
Sectional views reveal hidden details in a mechanical drawing.
These views assume that a cutting plane has removed portions of the object represented by the drawing, displaying the appropriate section of the interior.
Sectional views are used in engineering and architectural drawings.
They help civil engineers, architects, and airplane designers communicate their ideas to their peers.

PROCEDURE:-

Step:-1

First, we add the ground floor plan to the sheet, as shown below.

we leave the ground floor for parking.

Step:-2

Next, we add the first-floor plan to the sheet, as shown below.

Step:-3
