3D Architectural Design and Modeling with Revit

Overview

“In this lesson we will see the basic concepts to understand what the family categories are and the modification of their type and instance parameters. For this, and as a first approach, we will model a wall element and insert a door reviewing its characteristics.”

In this video lesson Arturo Bustíos Casanova addresses the topic: Concept of families, types and instances, which is part of the Domestika online course: 3D Architectural Design and Modeling with Revit. Create an orthogonal plan of a home step by step using BIM (Building Information Modelling) methodology.

“Families, Types and Instances In this lesson, I'll show you Family components and their possible modifications. On my screen, I have a 5 m by 5 m square. What I'll show you now is the big difference between the Project and the Family components. See the difference between instances and types. I have a Thin Line at the moment, this one. However, if I select another line within the rectangle, and I modify it so that it's a Medium line, you don't see any difference. Let's do the same selecting this line, with a Wide line. You can't see the difference, but if I go the View tab, and select this ...”
