Zoom videos were posted yesterday (link)

You should be working on your case study research and producing your first revit file for your project.

Group Work:

  • Focus on the guidelines provided by the case study powerpoint template.
  • Divide up the research and for Thursday make sure you have put the initials of who is working on which sections of the PowerPoint.
  • Remember as you work to keep tracks of your sources and citations
  • Put all your research in the MIRO board so all team members can access it.
  • MOST IMPORTANT
    • Locate a plan that you use to identify all the structural column grids and proper dimensions (see individual work)

Individual work:

  • Create a new Revit File – Name it “Firstname.LastName SteelCaseStudy FA23.rvt“
  • Bring in the image of the plan and scale it as I did in my videos – there are two good vidoes from the morning and afternoon classes for reference
  • Create 2 grid lines at the proper distance and use these as a guide to scale the image of the plan
  • Add all of the grid lines.  Remember they will be nice round numbers, like 20′ or 20’6, or 31’10” – no fractions.
    • Cleanup the plan and move the elevation symbols
    • Use 1/8″ scale
    • Add steel columns at intersections from Level 1 to Level 2
  • Add levels as needed for your building
    • Cleanup the elevation views – to make sure that the grids are visible on all the levels
  • Create a sheet (start with 22 x 34)
    • Place the plan on the sheet.  If it does not fit – try a bigger sheet.
    • Extra work is to also layout the exterior elevations
    • Customize the titleblock with your name and photo
