Retaining wall families. Special Site Designer families for retaining walls define the
wall width, height, and material; the depth of its base and sub-base; whether the wall
projects cut-and-fill tie slopes from the backside of the wall into the proposed top
surface; and additional slope-related parameters. See Load Families for Site Designer.
Host lines. Before creating a retaining wall, use the Model Line or Detail Line tool to
create wall host lines. The host line represents the centreline of a wall.
Create walls. To create a retaining wall, use the Locate Retaining Wall tool, and follow
the general workflow in Create Site Elements.
When Site Designer creates the wall, it updates the top surface and places a mass form
to represent the wall.
Pick side for grade. If the selected Retaining Wall type defines slope projection
parameters, then after selecting the wall's host line, click on one side of the line to
indicate that the slope will occur on that side of the wall.
Free-standing walls. To create a landscaping wall that follows the terrain, use a
Retaining Wall type whose Slope Projection parameter is set to No.
Quantities. Use the Site Designer Report tool to obtain base and sub-base materials
quantities, as well as the gross surface area and gross volume of retaining walls. Use
Revit schedules to obtain the total cut and fill for the proposed site.
When creating a retaining wall, Site Designer does the following:
Type:
A catalog item where the properties for that item are the same for all occurrences of
that asset
Instance:
An item from a catalog that is installed in your facility where the properties for that
asset are unique to its installation
View-specific elements display only in the views in which they are placed. They help to
describe or document the model. For example, dimensions are view-specific elements. It is divided
into annotation elements and details.
1) Open an elevation or section view where we can access the wall that will host the
opening.
2) Click (Wall Opening).
a) Architecture tab Opening panel (Wall Opening)
b) Structure tab Opening panel (Wall Opening)
3) Select the wall that will host the opening.
4) Sketch a rectangular opening.
After we specify the final point of the opening, the opening displays.
1. In the Family Editor, click Create tab Family Editor panel (Load into Project). The
family will remain open.
If only one project is currently open, the family is loaded into that project, and the project
displays in the drawing area.
Optionally, we can click Create tab Family Editor panel (Load into Project and
Close). we will be prompted to save the family which will close after it loads into the
selected project.
2. If multiple projects are open, the Load into Projects dialog displays. Select the open
projects to receive the family, and click OK.
Temporary dimensions snap to the nearest perpendicular element and adjust by a defined
value. we can define the snap increment. If we define the snap increment to 6 cm, the
dimension increases or decreases in values of 6 cm as we move the element to place it.
while working on Revit we all come across the temporary dimensions when clicking
on any of the element, once I thought that why these dimensions look very small
than I found out the way to make them bigger to be visible properly.
The process of making them bigger
Go to the option in the application menu
then click on the Graphics tab
II. Go to the plan floor plan of the wall and draw a curtain wall in it.
III. By using cut option in the geometry panel, cut the edges of the curtain wall which
removes the host wall above the curtain wall.
VII. Finally,
2. A. Create a dome in Revit and explain the procedure for the same.
VI. Go to set, dialogue box opens, select the pick a plane option.
VII. Click on the reference plane and go to south elevation.
VIII. Select the revolve tool and go to the line option and draw the central axis for the
dome.
IX. By using arc option, draw the arc between base and top of axis.
X. Make offset for the arc. And select the axis line option.
XI. Click the green tick to get the full dome.
XII. Finally,
B. Create a dormer roof in Revit and explain the procedure for the same.
II. Select to the dormer option and go to the floor plan level 2 and draw the walls on it.
III. Draw the required sloped roof for newly drawn wall.
