• Due for next class on Miro:
  • Complete Modeling Rainscreen Backup Wall & Subframing Components to a good pausing point. We will pause rainscreens and focus on glazing starting on the next class.
    • See rainscreen subframing examples from this folder.
    • Focus on modeling detailed elements where it makes the most sense in your details and diagrams.
      • One wall or a strip of the wall is fine.
    • The subframing and backup wall do not need to be a parametric model! Simply model the L-angles or Z-girts or hat channels as generic models!

    • If your manufacturer does not include these details, look at your classmates’ research for examples or simply look online (Google) for examples of rainscreen cladding attachments. There are many manufacturers (ex. KnightWall, EcoCladding, Cascadia Clip, GreenGirt)

• Catchup from previous classes (Refer to prior OpenLab posts)
  • Finalize panelization for rainscreen and glazing with dimensions
  • Model typical rainscreen panel (parametric as demonstrated in class so it’ll be easier to adjust to your various sizes) and placing them into your model according to your panelization layout.
  • Model vision and spandrel panels within glazing system based on your mullion layouts and design

• Grading is based on students oral presentation and drawings
  • All drawings should have notes/leaders and dimensions.
  • Graphics, neatness are also part of the grade. 
  • Balance how much time you spend modeling versus paying drawings on a sheet. Show the class how much hard work you did!
  • Those drawings in bold below are your priority and a higher percentage of your grade.

• SC-04, SC-05, etc. (Details Sheet) ******
  • Start details in groups of 4 using 1-1/2″ scale
  • Larger details as required at 3″ or 6″ etc.
  • Always add notes & dimensions
  • Keep things consistent across your drawings.
  • Details: 
    • Footing detail to column
      • Remember the 4 views! (Plan, elevation, section, 3D axon – all line up)
      • When cutting the section detail through footing, show the void for the bolts and use the detail regions to show shims and grout fill.

FINAL PRESENTATION FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT IS TUESDAY, MARCH 11TH! NO CLASS ON THURSDAY, MARCH 6TH.

Due for next class on Miro:

• SC-01 – Basic Sheet updated
  • Add annotations and overall dimensions
  • Notched beam and plates should be added now
• SC-02 – Exploded Isometric updated
  • start adding annotations and overall dimension
  • Notched beam and plates should be added now
• SC-03 – Kit of Parts 
  • Recommend using created families in a new project file to do this so that you do not have to keep hiding them in your main file. If you used families to make your objects, this should be relatively simple.
  • Separate all the elements, if they would not arrive together on site, they should not be shown together (ex. no base plate shown on concrete footing)
  • No annotations or dimensions needed here, make your titles clear.
• SC-04 – First Details Sheet –
  • Footing detail to column
    • Remember the 4 views! (Plan, elevation, section, 3D axon – all line up)
    • When cutting the section detail through footing, show the void for the bolts and use the detail regions to show shims and grout fill.
  • Beam to columns connections
  • Column to column connection at splice
  • Beam to notched beam connection with fin plate
  • Start with a scale around 1 1/2″ to see if things work. 
• If you need more detail sheets continue to SC-05, SC-06 etc. as we prepare for the final presentation

Work to complete the following in your Revit Model:

• Conical Holes in footing
• Splice plate (column to column)
• Fin plate (column to beam & beam to beam)
• Wide-Flange Notched beam
  • Locate this mid-span of your structural grid
  • Use the member size that you selected in class in your groups! (#5)

Additional Revit Modeling I did not yet demonstrate – This will be demonstrated in the next class or follow the PowerPoint tutorials if you would like to keep going

• • Diagonal bracing
  • Floor slab

    • Threaded Rod
    • Washer
    • Nut

Due for next class on Miro:

• SC-01 – Basic Sheet updated (required)

• SC-02 – Exploded Isometric updated (required)
  • start adding annotations and overall dimensions
• SC-03 – Kit of Parts (required) 
  • Recommend using created families in a new project file to do this so that you do not have to keep hiding them in your main file. If you used families to make your objects, this should be relatively simple.
• SC-04 – First Details Sheet (optional)
  • Footing detail to column
  • Beam to columns connections
  • Column to column connection at splice
  • Start with a scale like 1 1/2″ to see if things work.  If you need more sheets continue to SC-05, SC-06 etc.

Push ahead as far as you can – work to complete the following in your Revit Model. Remember to model your own things, do not just download families or use pre-existing elements from the structural library. You will receive 0 credit if you do this!

A fresh new Miro board as we move on to the next assignment, there is information within that we will be referencing throughout today’s demonstrations:

MODELING

• Model at minimum – 6 columns (2 wide flange, 2 square, 2 round) – 4 beams (all wide flange). The dimensions are in the respective tables on Miro that you used to choose your section sizes.
