1 11/30/2005-5:00 pm - 6:30 pm Room:N. Hemispheres (Salon E2) (Dolphin) Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort Orlando, Florida Nicolas Mangon - Autodesk SD35-1 This year, Autodesk is introducing the first application for structural engineers and designers which offers concurrent modeling for analysis, coordination, and documentation. This presentation will demonstrate how Revit Structure is using building information modeling to help structural engineers be more productive. About the Speaker: Nicolas joined Autodesk in 2003 as the product manager for Autodesk Revit Structure. As acting product manager, he focuses on the market requirements for the development of Revit Structure. For the past 15 years, Nicolas has designed software for structural engineers in Europe and North America. He has worked on a wide variety of products, including structural analysis, structural modeling, and detailing for steel and concrete structures. Nicolas received a Master of Science degree in Structural Engineering from the Ecole Superieure des Travaux Public in Paris, France. nicolas.mangon@autodesk.com

3 Workflow of the industry Problems we are trying to solve with Revit Structure Same information is created multiple times for different tasks Lack of tool for coordination between drafters and engineers Lack of tool for coordination between architects and engineers Lack of standard software modeling platform How Revit Structure addresses the problems 2

4 Differences between Revit Structure and Revit Building - General User interface o Command organization o Category filtering - Functionalities o (+) ADT interoperability o (+) Rebar modeling o (+) Coping of beams o (+) Analytical model generation and adjustment API link to analysis Load modeling o (+) Composite metal deck o (+) Graphical column schedule o (+) Engineering view direction (For Canada) o (+) o (-) Reflected ceiling plans o (-) Room related functionalities (analysis, tag, etc...) o (-) Model text - Content My first project in Revit Structure Using templates Create your own template with company standards for different type of buildings - Steel - Concrete - Wood - Precast concrete Import architectural design 1) Import plan view - Select plan view level 2 3

5 - Import dwg file from the architect o Select link instead of import so you can update the dwg when you get a revision from the architect o Select current view only 2) Import elevation - Select the elevation - Import elevation using [Link] and [Current view only] - Create levels o Set up the right options: [Make plan view] creates a plan view otherwise it will be a an intermediate level used to reference a specific elevation [Offset] allows to define the top of steel or top of beam based on architectural levels [Lock] will help the coordination if the architect changes the elevation of the building then when the dwg is reloaded, the Revit level is updated. (only if the architect uses the same AutoCAD line) o Use pick tool o Use draw tool o If levels are irregular, adjust level after all members are created 3) Create additional grid lines 4

6 There are different ways to create a grid line: - Pick tool - Draw tool Datum extent allows to display or not grid lines in different views. Turn on or off the extent option by clicking the graphical icon 3D / 2D located near the grid line bubble. If the icon is 2D then the changes of the grid line will not affect the other views. Use right click Reset to 3D extent to go back to previous situation Use right click hide annotation in view to turn off a grid line in a specific view 4) Array - Linear - Radial - If Second is selected, then the distance specified by the user will define the distance between the 2 first elements of the array. If Last is selected, then the distance specified by the user will define the distance the first and the last element of the array. All the intermediate elements will be distributed uniformly in between. - Constrain locks move direction parallel and perpendicular to the object that is being arrayed 5) Create walls - Wall are created top down as engineers design a floor system - Trace on top of dwg - Use pick tool - Use draw tool - Opening 6) Create columns - Load columns families - One by one using typical creation tools - At grid intersection o Select multiple grid lines that have at least one intersection o Use CTRL + select or shift + select to add grid lines in the selection o Press the space bar as many times as needed to orient the columns perpendicular to grid lines o Press finish button 7) Create beams 5

7 - Load beam families - Structural usage can be selected or set to automatic mode. If set to automatic mode then Revit Structure will define the structural usage property of the beams based on their supports. If a beam is supported by 2 columns it is a girder. If a beam is supported by 2 girders it is a joist. The graphical representation of beams depends on their structural usage and can be controlled in the object style dialog box. - Beams can be created one by one using typical creation tools. o If Chain mode is selected then just click the end point of the beam and the start point will be the end point of the previous - Beams can be created based on grids: o Select multiple grid lines that have at least one intersection o Use CTRL + select or shift + select to add grid lines in the selection o Press finish button o Beams will be created between all the supports that intersect the selected grid lines (columns, structural walls and crossing beams). 8) Create beam systems Beam systems can be created using different layout rules. The main ones are: - Fixed distance - Fixed number These rules can be overridden by unpinning the beams: Span direction can be defined arbitrarily by drawing a specific line: 6

8 9) Create slab - Slab thickness is entered under the type properties by selecting edit Structure: - Cantilevers - Span direction o The span direction is created automatically but in case it is deleted, it can be recreated using the span direction command under the drafting tab. 7

9 o Representation can be edited using the family editor o Span direction can be moved or rotated using the move and rotate command 10) Create openings Openings can be created in several ways: - Opening object - Floor sketch - Shaft opening - 11) Duplicate floors - Open 3D view and display wireframe - Select all - Copy and paste aligned - Current view - Same Place This is useful for pasting elements between worksets or design options. - Pick Level Graphics - Select level by name 12) Create braces - Plan view o First point defines the bottom of the brace - Create brace elevation based on grid line. Regular elevation will not work unless the workplane is set correctly - open brace elevation - Draw the braces. The brace members are justified center-center and the beams are justified top-center. 13) Create foundations - isolated footing are created manually one by one 8

10 - Continuous footings are created by picking existing walls. Step footings are addressed in the Advanced modeling class 14) Create family - create column with drop cap - Select new template and use structural column template - Select solid form and solid extrusion - Draw a centered circle and add a type parameter to define the radius and call it Column radius - Open front view and draw a horizontal reference plane below the upper level - Add a dimension from the upper level to the new reference plane and add an instance parameter called Drop cap height - Stretch the top of the cylinder up to the new reference plane and lock it by clicking the lock symbol - Go back to the plan view and select a solid form solid blend - Draw a circle and add link the radius to the existing property column radius - Select Edit top button and create a new circle larger than the previous, add an instance parameter called Drop cap top radius - Press finish sketch and open the front view - Use the shape handles to move the drop cap between the new reference plane and the upper reference plane and lock it. 9

11 15) Generate views and placement on drawings Typical view generation and placement on drawings will be presented for the following: 17) Generate loads - Load cases and load combinations can be defined from the structural settings dialog box: - Loads can be created o Independently of the geometry (first 3 icons from the left) o Based on the geometry (first 2 icons from the right) and attached to it with Line load with host and area load with host. In that case if the geometry changes then the geometry of the load is updated 10

12 - Loads can be created in a local coordinate system: In that case Z is perpendicular to the workplane: - Or global coordinate system In that case Z is vertical 18) Calculate building Use 3 rd party application Etabs from Computer and Structures 11
