How to create walls, columns, windows, ventilators in Revit

 Well in the last blog I had discussed about my starting day of Revit Architecture. But here I am going to discussed about creating of walls, Columns, Windows, Ventilators etc. about these. There are also many more others that can be created on Revit Architecture. 

Okk, after bringing the AutoCAD plan to Revit you can start by all of these. Bring the AutoCAD floor plan to the plinth level and start working from there. As you can see in the picture.


After that you can see menu bar, Architecture tab and all those templates. Whatever plan you create see that the floor area matches with the ground area. Well whatever be, in the architecture tab you can see that wall, Door, Window, Component, column, roof and all those other required elements used for house designing are available there. You click on the wall arrow-down button and click on the wall architecture tab. 

Download this image on your computer or laptop screen so that you can view it clearly. After clicking on wall architecture tab, in the properties pallet you can see that many wall options are available. But to get those wall options you should have to click the wall drop-down button. Select the 200mm wall or you can select it according to your requirement. Ans give correct measurements in the wall height box, wall width, also some other requirements also. Create your walls on the wall area and after that click it on the house button above the tab to get the 3D view. 

You can also create columns, windows, ventilators, curtain walls and also many other things available in the architecture tab. But every element have different heights and measurements. You should have to give the offset of your own. 

For column also same thing have to be followed, but while selecting on the column tab select the structural column. After that make it duplicate on the edit button in the properties template and give it any name as you want. So that the required height, width, length you can take of your own. 


By creating all these select the 3D view available on the view tab button and check it out. You can see the actual 3d house you have created. Remember for creating anything you should have to duplicate it first, after that you make it on the plan as you want. And by all these you are ready to complete your house.

Thank you and you can follow me on

How to edit grid systems in Etabs

 Okk in the last blog I had discussed about Etabs for beginners. You have got at least some ideas about it. If you have not seen it then click here . But here I am going to discuss how you will edit Grids/Columns in Etabs. As I had said by clicking on "Modify/Show Grid Systems" option a new dialog box appears, their you can edit anything. But you can also do it by different way. On the left side in grid dimensions (plan) you can see that two options are available. One is "Uniform Grid Spacing" and the other is "Custom Grid Spacing". Click on the "Custom Grid Spacing" and you see that Edit Grid Data option is available. Just click on that, and you can edit it as you want by giving the required dimensions in X-axis and Y-axis only. Ok whatever be lets come to the topic. If you have done it like as I have shown earlier then follow those steps. And the one who were new to this blog this is just for that. That's why I underlined with BLUE line an...

MACHINES USED AT CONSTRUCTION SITES

 The most commonly used machine at any construction site is JCB where it's technical name is Backhoe. It is the most common and widely used machine in any construction project whether its big or small project. It becomes easier and makes the work faster for the companies at any time of interval.    All other machines such as Transit Mixer, Concrete Mixer, Roller etc are also used in any kind of road project or building project. Transit Mixer is used for large large building projects, bridge projects, some kind of road projects etc. whereas concrete mixer is for small building projects. Roller is used for road project and bridge project for its elevation.  For any building project the most commonly used machines are concrete mixer, transit mixer, concrete pump, bar bending machine, needle vibrator, water pump and many more. All these machinery works make the work easier and faster. Otherwise if the work is done with labourers it will take more time and less efficient ...

Importing AutoCAD into Revit

So today in this blog I am going to explain how I made an AutoCAD 2D plan and then imported it into Revit software. So you read this blog from starting to end, then only you'll understand clearly.  This is all basic and not any crisscross idea or ruthless situation. It's very simple. First you do all the basic steps in AutoCAD, and you know what is that. Going to Format, set up the units and bla, bla, bla. After that making all these set-up you start with the drawing plan. You yourself have created a idea "how my drawing plan will look like" or "how will I make it?" But before going into complex, first you make a simple drawing plan, like this    First you make the lines and after that create the room size and area of your own. You are exclusively expert in that. This is the first and foremost drawing plan you have to make. And the rest you know how to make it. All boundary lines, room shape and size, passage, staircase etc. you know it very well.  Now you g...
