Beach House

Now that I had a basic grip on Revit, I wanted to do a simple porject but it make more percise than the church. I wanted to have a house by the lake or ocean and involved different lighting styles and architectual concepts I haven't done before.

Looking out the back

 

The back of the house

Independent Study

This church was my first project ever on Revit Architecture. I am a christian and thought a church with all the different things you can do with it would be a challenging project to undertake.I tried to expand my knowledge about Revit with things I have never done before. I found a church online that I took some concepts from, but otherwise this will all made from scratch from my own head.

This is the floor plan drawn onto Revit. Most of the dimensions are done, and the basic drawing of the floor plan is complete. The next steps include a windows and door schedules, and the more complicated step, making the floor plan into a 3-d view of the house.

Rough Draft Church Blue Print

Independent Study

First few weeks-
              Started the design of the church. Based most on my own church and what I liked and disliked about it. Talked to pastor at church and asked what he felt would make a good church design. Drew on paper first so as to get a generally idea of project. Looked online for modern churches to get a basic idea of what the church will look like as far as structure on the outside. Found different floor plans and pictures that I based my church off of, again adding things I liked and not adding those things I didn't like. Next step.. Put drawn paper onto the computer using Revit, a progam I will teach myself how to do.

Descriptive Geometry (Addaline)

Descriptive Geometry is rotating surfaces in order to find....

• True Size/Shape/Lenth/ and Angle
• Intersection points
• Distances

True Length Lines

If a line is parallel to a fold line in one view, it is true length in the next view

Point View

1. Find a true length line
2. Create a fold line perpendicular to the True Length line

True Size Surfaces

1. You must find true length of a line
2. Find point view of a line
3. Create a fold line parallel to edge view

-Addaline-

1. From a point, draw a line parallel to the fold line that intersects a surface of the same view
2. Once there is an intersection on the edge view of a surface, extend that line up into then next view so it intersect the same edge view in the other view
3. From that point in the second view, extend the line to the point in the second view from the point that started the line in the first view
4. That line that connects a point to an edge view in the second view is True Length, you can now make TSS and point view from there
