Once you have selected User Interface you will presented will a tick list of all the possible Menu tabs. All you need to do is place a tick against the ones you would like displayed on the main menu. Click here to watch the YouTube Video Tutorial Introduction In the opening Module of this course we talked a little about how Revit uses parameters for everything it creates. In this Unit we going to revisit that topic and look at parameters in more detail.

Everything is driven by parameters One model, one database Change it once and it changes everywhere! You decide where to change it Everything is driven by parameters All elements within Revit are controlled using parameters and associated values. If we select the doors selected elements are always highlighted in blue by default we can see its parameters and associated values displayed in the properties palette see below.

Four example we have a parameter called Frame Material and its associated value is Metal. We can click on the values the ones within the green box and change them directly within the Properties Palette. In addition to those listed by default, we can create custom parameters to our elements, to store a variety of di erent information.

For example in the image above, I have selected a section of external wall. I can see all the properties of that section of wall in the properties palette number 4 in the above image. This goes a long way to keeping our model coordinated and accurate. Our plans will always match our elevations and sections, etc. The properties for the window are displayed in the Properties Palette.

If I wish to change the window type, I can either pick a di erent type from the drop-down selector in the properties palette see number 1 in the above image or I can pick a di erent type from the cell in the window schedule.

All elements in Revit are controlled by parameters which have a name and an associated value. No matter where you make your changes to an element or asset, that change will permeate back to the database and update all other associated views that show the relevant element. As the views of your model are generated from a single database, coordination issues in Revit are almost non-existent. Normally when you are modelling a Roof in Revit, you will have a Level setup to control its height- this may by a Level that is also controlling the top of your external walls.

Make sure the Floor Plan View you choose to work in is associated with the Level at which you want to create your Roof at. In other words. Revit has worked out that I may not want to create a Roof down at the Ground Floor…..

Also notice the Options Bar- see the image below. So now we are ready to start sketching the boundary of our at roof. The Boundary Lines are the pink ones in the image below….. If we switch to a 3D View we can clearly see our new Roof…. What about pitched or sloped Roofs? Easy, we just use the same tool, in the same way- with one important di erence. This is because I want the edge of our pitched roof to overhang the external walls by mm…..

So again, we go around the external walls of our building, clicking on each wall element. Notice how Revit add the Boundary Lines with an O set of mm away from the walls 2. You can see in the image below the completed Roof. If we switch to a 3D View we can better see the nal geometry of our new pitched roof….. First of all select the Roof we have just created. Consequently you now have access to the Boundary Lines.

Go ahead and select one of the Boundary Lines segments that corresponds with where you would like to create your Gable End….. IN the image below you can see that the roof now has a Gable End.

We can also see that there is triangular gap left in the gable wall……. Please refer to the image below when reading these instructions. In the image below you can see I have created a Section Line through the building…..

Once again select the Wall rst 1. Revit then makes the wall meet the underside of the roof correctly…. This tool allows us to sketch a 2D pro le in an Elevation or Section View and then create a horizontally-extruded view from it.

The rst step in this process is to choose a plane on which we are going to sketch the 2D pro le of our Roof. This will then get Revit to detect the various planes it nds as you move you cursor around in the active view….. So in a 3D View I can hover my cursor above the model and Revit highlights the various planes that it nds.

I am going to use the end of the building as the plane on which I will sketch the 2D Roof Pro le. As soon as you do this Revit then brings up another panel…. This panel is allows you to choose the Level that you want you Roof referenced to. It also allows you to apply any o set to the height of the Level. So referring to the above image: Choose a tool from the draw palette 1 and then sketch the Roof Pro le in the active view 2.

You do NOT create a closed loop. You do NOT sketch around what will be the perimeter of your roof in section. When you are happy with your Pro le sketch, go ahead and hit the Green Cross.

This will instruct Revit to proceed and create the 3D geometry for your roof form….. You can change the Roof Type at any point- but the upper surface of your Roof Type will always be coincident with the Sketch Pro le. In the above image we can see our Roof Form in 3D. So far, so good. But if we take a look at our roof in plan….. This is because it is a simple extruded form. To cut away at our Roof form in plan, rst select it. You will now see some Editing tools on the Ribbon.

I am going to use the Rectangle tool 1, in the image above. Then sketch the areas that you want to cut out of your roof. It does NOT matter that these rectangles overhang the original roof form in plan. Go ahead and hit the Green Tick to get Revit to create these Vertical Openings you can also think of them as void forms. Here is the resultant roof form in plan….. If we switch to a 3D view we can see that the walls under our roof do not yet meet its underside…..

And nally select the element you want to attach to- the Roof in this case 3. You will now see that this wall neatly meets the underside of the curved Roof…. Notice how this only worked for the single wall that we selected. Note in the above image that the adjacent wall does not yet meet the roof.

So you have to perform the above process for all the walls that are situated beneath the roof form. Now you can attach ALL you walls to the curved roof in one go. In order to demonstrate the Rotate tool we need some things to rotate!

In the image below you can see that we have a very simple model- 3 wall instances, 3 window instances and 1 desk. Select the desk. I want you to note 2 things with reference to the image above :- 1.

The Pivot point or centre of rotation : This will be the point at the centre of rotation, regardless of the angle you rotate it by. The default location for the pivot point is the centre of the element that is to be rotated. You can almost think of this as a big handle by which you rotate the object, by pulling it around. With reference to the image below: First of all click in the active window to set the start angle 1. Note how the angle between the start and nish Angular Reference Lines is always displayed 3, below …..

Set it by: Just move your cursor clockwise or anticlockwise in the active view and click your mouse but to set the angle and rotate the object accordingly. Use other objects to snap to- for both the start and end angles. Enter the exact angle of rotation by simply typing it on your keyboard AFTER you have rst clicked to set the start angle.

That was a very simple rotation. A well designed template will ensure office standards are maintained and will reduce repetitive work. This lesson is intended to provide you with a blueprint of how to create your structural template.

It is mostly conceptual and is designed as a road map with options for your consideration. The lesson begins with choosing the right base template and progresses through many of the most common modifications that you would consider in order to make a template unique to your situation.

Choosing the Base Template In this exercise, you select the starting point for your structural template. Whenever you create a new project or template, a group of settings are used to specify the project environment. For example, when you create a new project, you can select an existing template or begin the project with no template. Even if you choose not to base that project on a template, certain baseline settings are still assigned to the new project.

When you create a new template based on an existing template, the same rules apply. Depending on your needs, choose the option that will help you develop the best template with the least amount of work. Notice there are a number of different templates to choose from. The template selection may vary depending on your installation.

Other than the default template, each is modified in a way to make it useful to a particular industry, such as structural or construction. The first step in creating your structural template is deciding which template to use as your starting point. If your work requires a variety of templates, you can modify one template and use Transfer Project Standards to copy the changes to other templates. Notice that there are more predefined levels than you normally see in the default template.

Notice that the structural analysis template is more complex than the default template. Other templates, such as the structural template, are simple in respect to the predefined views and schedules, but the view properties have been modified to maximize the use of the structural tools.

If you have additional projects open, close them. TIP This template is the starting point for your new template. If you want to use a template other than the default, you can select it now. Modifying Project Settings In this exercise, you modify the project settings for your new template.

These settings control the appearance of components and their subcomponents within a project. In order to maintain office standards and reduce rework, you can establish the settings that are common to most projects.

For example, you can create the materials commonly used in most projects. When you create the material, you can dictate its appearance in all views and renderings. The specifics regarding each of these are addressed at the end of this exercise.

During this exercise, specific modifications are not dictated. You are merely pointed to each area where you can adapt the template to your needs. Observe the materials that are already defined. You may want to rename or modify some of the existing materials. If there are materials that are commonly used within your office or industry, create and modify them as needed.

If you create or modify new materials, you may want to specify their appearance when rendered. You can do this by setting the AccuRender Texture. If there are custom AccuRender materials that you want to add to the template, you can do so by going to the Material menu and selecting New. Choose the appropriate option, and create the AccuRender material. When you save a new AccuRender material designed to be used in an office template, be aware that access to the original material library may be necessary at some point.

You may want to save the material to a library located on a network path. TIP When the material of a component is set to by category, it adopts the material assigned to its object styles category. The Line Weights command controls the display of line widths for each scale of a view. You can add and delete view scales. In the dialog, there are 3 tabs: one for model component line styles, one for perspective model line styles, and one for annotation symbol line styles.

The Model Line Weights tab controls the line width of structural components, such as beams and columns in orthographic views. The widths are dependent on the scale of the design. You can define the widths of 16 different pens for 6 different drawing scales. The Perspective Line Weights tab controls the line width of objects in perspective views. The Annotation Line Weights tab controls the line width of annotation symbols, such as section lines and dimension lines.

Annotation line widths are independent of the view scale. The arrowheads configured within this dialog can be applied to text notes, tags, and dimensions.

To see the details of a particular style, select it from this list. Linear, angular, and radial dimensions are modified separately. The tag assignments in this dialog dictate the default tag for each category. For example, when you add a structural framing tag with the tag option selected, the beam is tagged using the tag assigned to the structural framing category in this dialog.

You can override tag assignment using the Type Selector. Notice many categories do not have loaded tags. You can have multiple tags loaded for any category. When more than one tag has been loaded for a category, the last loaded tag becomes the default tag. In the Tags dialog, you can override the assignment by selecting a different tag from the drop-down list. TIP In the drawing area, you can modify the location of temporary dimension witness lines.

When you create a new view, the detail level of that view is automatically assigned using this table. The detail level is based on view scale. You can override the detail level at any time by specifying the Detail Level parameter in the View Properties command.

View scales are organized under the detail level headings Coarse, Medium, or Fine. Using the arrows between the columns, you can move view scales from one detail level to another. NOTE You cannot select specific scales in this dialog. To move the view scales, click the arrows between columns.

The view scales move from the lower-left to the upper-right and vice-versa. In a typical project, you often produce multiple packages of related drawings. In certain projects, engineers view plans using different orientations in different countries. This parameter makes it possible for you to select a different view direction. For example, you can view the project from the slab looking up up direction , or from the roof looking down down direction.

Additional project settings 78 On the Settings menu, there are several additional commands that control the project environment.

Although these settings can be saved within a template, you should consider each carefully before applying changes to a template. For example, you can save rendered scene settings to a template.

However, you may only want to add generically named settings that would be applicable to most projects. In such a case, you must decide if the time investment is offset later by the reduction in repetitive work.

Each of these areas is covered later in this lesson or in other tutorials. Use the table below as a checklist, and make modifications in each area as necessary. Links to associated tutorials are provided. You can find additional information in Help. Each command is available on the Settings menu. Settings Menu Associated Tutorial Considerations Command Project Parameters This command is covered in an exercise If necessary, you can add project and shared later in this lesson.

View Templates This command is covered in an exercise Create and modify the view templates to control the later in this lesson. If you have not completed the previous exercise, do so before starting this exercise.

Depending on the intended use of this template, you may want to load families into the template to save time later or ensure consistency throughout the office. You can load any family or group into a template. Obviously, you should only load components that tend to be used in every project and are not likely to change.

For example, you could load detail components, titleblocks, and beams. You may want to modify slab types to add a more diverse selection within the template. Although the options are endless, there are some important thoughts to consider. It is important to understand that you should not load every conceivable family into a template file.

Although this is possible, it is not recommended because it would increase the file size significantly before the first component was added to the project. In addition, each component loaded will add to the length of the relative Type Selector list. For example, if you loaded every beam type you could find, you would have to scroll through a lengthy list of beams every time you changed a beam within a project.

This would be cumbersome and counterproductive. You should think very carefully about what families or groups to load and modify within a template. Load and modify families 1 Use the project started in the previous exercise, and on the Modelling tab of the Design Bar, click Beam. If this selection is satisfactory, you can move onto the next component type. However, you may want to delete, modify, or add to this selection. You can do this in several ways: select a component type and click Properties to modify or add a new type, or use the Project Browser to delete an existing type.

In the steps that follow, you do both. Use the instructions in the table below to perform these steps. Navigate to the directory containing the beam type, select it, and click Open. Make modifications, and click OK. Click Duplicate, enter a name, and click OK. Modify type properties, and click OK.

You may want to open other Design Bar tabs and make modifications to components not available on this tab. You can also load families and groups from the File menu. Notice that you have the option to Load Family or Load Group. Loading from the library is quickest when you know exactly what families you want to load. Press ESC twice to return to the template.

You can use the Project Browser to modify family types. Notice that there is a titleblock symbol loaded. The titleblock name may vary depending on the template you started with.

This titleblock is currently part of the template. Notice it has Revit in the upper-right corner. You may want to load a titleblock applicable to your office and then delete this titleblock. To do so, right-click the component, and click Delete. Modifying Views and View Templates At the beginning of this lesson, you created new projects using different templates, and you noticed that each template had a unique set of predefined views.

In this exercise, you create the views required for your template. In addition, you create and apply the underlying view templates that control the initial appearance of the views. View templates help standardize the look of all views by providing the initial settings for a view. You can also apply a template to an existing view at any time using the Apply View Template command.

The view inherits view properties such as View Scale, View Range, Discipline, Detail Level, and the visibility settings of categories and subcategories. In this exercise, you will first modify view templates, and then create new views that will automatically use those templates.

These settings are applied when you create a new plan view by adding a new level. At any time, you can apply a view template to any view. These values represent the starting point for each plan view. By modifying the view templates according to your specific needs, you save time and increase consistency. Keep in mind that these settings are the default settings for this view type.

Applying a view template to a view is a one-time action. When the view template is applied the view properties of the target view are instantly reset to match those of the template. After the template is applied, the view is not linked to the template in any way.

Subsequent modifications to the view template do not affect any current views unless you reapply the view template. There is no limit to the number of times you can apply a view template to a view, nor is there a limit to the number of view templates that you can apply. TIP To apply the template to multiple views, select the view in the Project Browser, and press Ctrl while selecting additional views. Then right-click and select Apply View Template.

This option means that every time a new plan view is created, this view template will be used to set the initial view properties. Black levels have no associated views. You can rename this view, if desired. You can also duplicate or delete the view. Rename, duplicate, or delete them as needed. Make sure you are still in the Level 2 view. The associated floor plan will use the Structural Plan view template to set its initial view properties.

Create 3D views 25 To add 3D views to the template, click on the View toolbar. If necessary, you may want to modify the view properties of any new views.

You can use this tool, Dynamically Modify View, to orient and save the view. You may want to consider adding the schedules that you use most often, and modify their properties accordingly. This can save time and ensure office standards are maintained. You are prompted to select a titleblock. If you have already loaded your titleblocks into the template, select one, and click OK. TIP You can add sheets to the template and delete the titleblock. To do so, select the default titleblock, and click OK.

After the sheet is created, select the titleblock and delete it. You can still add views to the sheet. Subsequent sheets are numbered consecutively based on the previous sheet. Modifying Structural Settings You can create custom cutback distances for braces, beams, and columns. You can also create custom brace symbols for use in plan views and for parallel line offset distances.

You may want to add symbolic settings to a template. You may want to consider adding the settings that you use most often, and modify their properties accordingly. The Export Layers command maps Revit Structure categories and subcategories to specific layer names that are available after exporting to other CAD programs. The layer names are stored in a text file exportlayers. The layer mapping files reside in the Data folder of the Revit Structure program installation directory.

The layer names are stored in a text file exportlayersdgn. When you save these mappings to a text file, they become the set mappings for the project. These settings are retained within the project template; therefore, you do not need to worry about where the text file is saved. Set as many pen-line weight mappings as desired. Setting up Shared and Project Parameters In this exercise, you refine the template further by setting up shared parameters, project parameters, and related multi-category tags and schedules.

Using shared parameters, you can define additional parameters that are not included in either the pre-defined instance and type parameters within family components or within the project template. You can add these shared parameters to any family regardless of category. Their definitions are stored in an external file ensuring consistency across families and projects.

Their values may also be aggregated and reported using multi-category schedules. For example, you could use shared parameters to add specific parameters to an existing family component for scheduling and tagging when those parameters are not initially present by default.

Project parameters are those parameters either instance or type that are used within a single project for the purposes of scheduling information specific to that project. They cannot be shared with other projects, and unlike shared parameters, they cannot be used to tag objects. Multi-Category Tags employ shared parameters to permit tagging of any family component regardless of category. When scheduling, you normally schedule a single category: rooms, doors, windows, and so on.

When you create a multi-category schedule, it lists components regardless of category by using an external parameter as a filter. In this exercise, detailed instructions are not supplied because each office has a unique set of needs. If you do not need to make changes to shared or project parameters, you can skip this exercise and move on to the last exercise of this lesson, Creating Named Print Settings.

If a file already exists, you can browse to that file and modify it as needed. This allows you to name the external parameter file. If this template will be used by multiple people within an office, you may want to save the file to a network location.

After the file is named, you can begin creating parameter groups. For each parameter group, you can create a list of parameters. Create and load multi-category tags 29 Create required multi-category tags in the Family Editor. For information on creating multi-category tags, see the tutorial referenced in the introduction of this exercise, or consult the Help documentation.

The tag is now part of the template. Notice that the shared parameters created in previous steps are included under Available fields. Creating Named Print Settings In this exercise, you create named print settings, and add them to your default template file. This can be beneficial if you have numerous printers in a large networked office. For each printer, you can set options such as sheet sizes, paper placement, and the percent of actual size. You can also create named settings for printing to a DWF writer.

By creating named settings within the template, you need only select a setting, make minor modifications if necessary, and print. Your template is complete. The only remaining task is to save it.

If you need to share this file with others, you should save it to a network path. The changes you made to the template are now the starting point for this project. You can also set this template as your default template. TIP Another way to create a template is to delete all model geometries from an existing project, and save it as a template file. This can provide a good starting point for a template. In addition, you can use the Transfer Project Standards tool to move standards from one project to another.

In this lesson, you modified settings, loaded components, and saved them to a template. By investing the time to individualize your template, you help ensure the office standards are maintained and reduce repetitive work that would be done by each employee for each project.

The imported file is used as a background template for creating the structural elements of the model. NOTE For training purposes, some structural columns were added to the model at off-grid locations in conjunction with architectural columns. Notice that Level 2 is bold. This is the active view that displays in the drawing area. The file becomes view specific and will behave like an annotation. Selecting Link instead of import allows you to view, drag, copy, paste, and rotate the view as one object.

However, you cannot select individual elements in the linked model. The halftone of the imported drawing is used as a background for placing columns. You can save the open file if you wish.

Exterior facade outlines, stairs, and elevator opening symbols, and a few basic interior walls and doors display in the view. Notice the column adjusts to the change.

You can save the open file if desired. Linking a Revit Building File In this exercise, you learn how to link to a 3-dimensional 3D drawing created in Revit Building for use as a background. You can copy grids, levels, columns, walls, and floors from the original design and monitor any changes made to those elements.

Exterior facade outlines, stairs and elevator opening symbols, and a few basic interior walls and doors display in the view. This is the keyboard shortcut for Zoom to Fit. Elements available for monitoring are separated into 5 categories Levels, Grids, Columns, Walls, and Floors. On each tab the Original Type column identifies the type for the Revit Building file, and the New Type for the corresponding element available in the template selected.

Each tab provides various parameters that can be set for that specific element. Also, you can exclude element types you do not want to copy. NOTE Architectural columns typically extend through multiple layers of a model.

A column may span from level 1 to level 10 of a structure and may present a problem when the analytical model is generated. Therefore, columns need to be split at each level. To select more than one grid, click Multiple on the Options toolbar, press Ctrl, while making selections.

After you select the grid, an eyeball symbol is displayed to indicate a relationship with the original element. NOTE A warning message may indicate that the loaded type has been renamed. The warning can be ignored. To select more than one level, click Multiple on the Options toolbar, press Ctrl, and select each level. NOTE If you are prompted that the element type already exists in the project, and that the type from the new project will be used, click OK.

To select more than one element, click Multiple on the Options toolbar, press Ctrl, and select each element. After selecting each element, an eyeball symbol is displayed to indicate a relationship with the original element. NOTE All copied elements are monitored for possible changes.

The coordination monitor function provides notification that updates have occurred. In the next tutorial, a new dataset is supplied. You begin by adding columns from Ground Level to Level 2. You copy columns and use the paste-align command to add structure to other levels. You also learn how to splice the columns.

After you copy columns, you add horizontal framing to an area of Level 2, and then copy this framing to other levels. Completed model Adding Grid Lines to the Imported Drawing In this exercise, the imported drawing is a halftone, that you use as a background drawing for placing columns. Notice the grid line is highlighted with a blue value within the grid head. As you select subsequent grid lines, they are labelled in alphabetical sequence.

Notice it is labeled B. Zoom in and out as needed. The last vertical grid is K. Notice it is grid L. Notice that the sequencing has adjusted from alphabetical to numeric. The bottom grid should be grid 5. Adding Structural Columns In this exercise, you load a new column type from the Revit Structure Library and add columns at each grid intersection.

These columns extend from an elevation to a splice elevation just above Level 2. This is the shortcut key for Zoom to Fit. NOTE When you use the Grid Intersection tool to place columns, Revit Structure places the tops of the columns at the current level, and the bases of the columns at the level below.

Notice that columns are placed at each grid intersection. In addition, there are a few extraneous columns on grid line intersections that are exterior to the structure.

TIP You may have to zoom into the grid intersection to right-click one of the columns. A welded connection graphically adds a splice symbol to the columns. In a coarse detail view, the welded connection is visible as 2 vertical lines at the splice location.

NOTE If necessary, you can adjust the height by clicking the temporary dimension and modifying the level elevation. Level 3 should be mm above Level 2. Notice the new level is named Level 3. A new structural plan view by the same name is also created and listed within the Project Browser.

Level 4 should be mm above Level 3 with an elevation of mm. Adjust location of the grid 18 Select grid head A. All of the structural columns in the model remain selected. Add Horizontal Framing to the Levels In this exercise, you frame 4 bays of Level 2 by adding horizontal members and a steel deck.

Add girders 4 On the View Toolbar, click , and draw a zoom box around the east area of the structure as shown. TIP Place the cursor over a grid and the tooltip displays the grid name.

Copy the girders to levels above 17 On the Edit menu, click Copy to Clipboard. NOTE If necessary, you can select the crop region and drag the extents to adjust the extents of the view. Notice the copied beams on levels 3 and 4. Then select the 3 girders that surround the upper-left bay as shown. The longitudinal axis of the beam system members will be placed parallel to these lines.

In the next step you edit the beam direction. NOTE In the image above and all subsequent images, the framing tag visibility has been turned off for training purposes. In your dataset, the framing tags display. Copy the beam systems to levels above 47 Hold the cursor over grid line H of the lower-left beam system, and press TAB until the beam system highlights.

NOTE A beam system displays with dashed lines as shown. Be sure that you have selected a beam system not just a beam when copying elements to other levels. You will need to cycle through some of the elements in your model by pressing TAB as explained above. Beam system displays with dashed lines 48 Right-click on the beam system, and click Select All Instances. Notice the copied beam systems. Revit Structure provides a deck span direction symbol when the deck is placed.

The filled half-arrows of this symbol represent the span of the deck. Rotate the span direction 62 Select the span direction symbol. The span direction arrows are parallel and just beneath grid line 3. Notice the span direction arrows have rotated 90 degrees and are now vertical. Copy the slab to other levels 65 Select the slab.

Add Bracing In this exercise, you add vertical bracing to a bay. Use the Status Bar to see the snap point. TIP After sketching the walls, you can select a wall and use the arrow keys on your keyboard to nudge the wall to a particular location. Adding Isolated Foundations In this exercise, you add isolated foundations to column locations.

NOTE In the following image, the curtain wall visibility was altered for training purposes. In your dataset, the imported DWG file does not display in this view. By default, the footing is placed at Ground Level. Completing the Structural Model In previous lessons, you have added columns and horizontal framing to your model.

In the exercises that follow, you complete the structural model, adding horizontal framing, bracing, openings, foundation, and concrete wall framing. Complete the Steel Framing of Level 2 In this exercise, you complete the horizontal framing of Level 2 by adding girders and beam systems, as well as cantilevers and outriggers.

NOTE Although you previously added girders to the structural model, using the grid tool does not duplicate girders at these locations. Manually add additional beams 8 Zoom around the bay in the upper-left corner of the model. Notice that framing tags no longer display within this view. Specify the top of steel 13 Zoom around the bay in the upper-left corner of the model. TIP Use the Trim tool to clean up gaps in the loop or overlapping intersections.

NOTE Make sure the beam direction is horizontal. Use the Beam Direction tool to make adjustments. TIP Use the Trim tool to trim the lower beam and properly place the beam direction. If a warning appears indicating that pinned objects were deleted, ignore it. NOTE You can save the open file if you wish.

Rather than add beam systems to the dozens of bays within this model, a new dataset is provided in the next step with the beam systems added as shown. In this new dataset, beam systems have been added to all bays. The visibility of structural framing tags has been turned off in the Level 2 plan view. In addition, the structural framing on levels 3 and 4 that you built in the first lesson of this tutorial have been deleted for training purposes.

Lastly, the base offset of the structural columns on the lower level has been set to zero so they will attach to the footings. Add cantilevers at columns 33 Select column A1 as the beam start point. Add intermediate cantilevers 37 Sketch intermediate beams between the outrigger and the beam between A1 and A2 as shown.

In the next exercise, a new dataset is supplied. Adding a Steel Deck In this exercise, you add a steel deck to the model. In this dataset, additional cantilever beams and outriggers were added to the model. In addition, the following new levels were added: 5, 6, 7, Roof, Garage Level-1, and Foundation. The pre-existing columns were paste-aligned to the roof level.

When sketching this deck, you can use a combination of lines including; sketched, picked, straight, and arced. TIP To sketch lines along the lower arced wall, select Chain on the Options Bar, and sketch a chain of continuous line segments. This is the keyboard shortcut for Shading with Edges. Adding Shafts In this exercise, you add elevator and stair openings to Level 2.

If it is not, use the View Control Bar to make the change. This is the keyboard shortcut for wireframe. The Design Bar changes to Sketch mode. TIP When sketching the shafts, use the Lines tool in combination with the pick option and select the external face of the walls imported with the DWG file.

Use the Trim tool to clean up gaps and intersections. Duplicating Framing In this exercise, you copy Level 2 framing to other levels. Copied levels with stair and elevator openings Modify roof and framing 9 In the Project Browser, under Structural Plans, double-click Roof.
