Description

Transform your Revit skills from beginner to expert by designing a complete 15-story residential building. This comprehensive course covers every stage, from initial setup to detailed reinforcement drawings and bill of quantities (BOQ). Learn to model all structural elements – columns, beams, slabs, shear walls, stairs, and foundations – with precision. Master advanced techniques in creating detailed reinforcement drawings for each element. You’ll also become proficient in generating professional structural sheets ready for presentation and learn to produce a detailed BOQ. This course is packed with practical, step-by-step instructions and real-world examples, ensuring you can confidently apply these skills to your own projects. Finally, learn how to seamlessly export your Revit model to Robot structural analysis software for further analysis. This course offers unparalleled value, equipping you with in-demand skills for a successful career in structural engineering.

Curriculum

Revit Software Fundamentals & Structural Modeling

This section lays the groundwork for your Revit journey. Begin by defining units and levels (4:55) and establishing accurate grids and dimensions (4:29). Then, dive into creating the structural elements of your 15-story building. You'll learn to model shear walls (9:42), columns (1:50), retaining walls (3:03), beams (7:26), slabs and stairs (5:43), and foundations – including isolated, strip (1:13), and mat foundations (3:41). This comprehensive approach ensures a solid foundation for subsequent modeling tasks.

Reinforcement Detailing & Sheet Creation

Master the art of reinforcement detailing with two different methods for column reinforcement (8:55 & 2:38). Learn to meticulously detail the reinforcement for walls (3:04), beams (4:31), foundations (3:26), and slabs (3:56). You'll then transition to creating professional structural sheets within Revit, learning to export these drawings to AutoCAD for seamless integration (19:20). Finally, create detailed and organized BOQ tables in Revit (4:25).

Exporting to Robot Structural Analysis

This section shows you how to prepare and export your completed Revit model to Robot Structural Analysis software (1:02). Learn the export process and ensure data integrity for efficient analysis (1:49). This crucial step will allow you to seamlessly move from design to analysis.
