When a Man Loves Revit

Few years ago, the world famous singer, Michael Boltton visited Korea to have his concert. 'When a Man Loves Woman' is one of his great hits.


I love Revit. But, sometimes I almost forget it while I struggle with technical issues in busy projects.  So, I do some useless works when ever I realize it.

What do you imagine when you think about LOVE? There can be a lot of candidates, But nobody can deny that flowers should be one of the strong ones. Especially ROSES.

So, I decided to give a rose to Revit to prove my love for her. (Please don't tell my wife)

Dynamo List Usage Examples

It's been more than three years after my old post about Dynamo List Actions.

It was based on v0.8, now we are using v2.0.

I know there are plenty of web pages which shows almost the same now. But I'm posting mine for someone visits my blog and the old links as well.

You can see the page through the button at left looks like bottom.

It will be updated if there comes anything new.

You can get all of them at a glace as usual.

Enjoy :)

Location of Slope's Section Line

When a symbolic line has to overlapped on a model section line, Revit gives us snap to find exact location of the line except below case.

Of course it's not very important. We can just draw a line at nearest location.
But, I just don't like it. WE ARE ENGINEERS!!!

Movable Annotations In A Symbol Family

There are some families which include annotations. And some of them can be more convenient to use if locations of texts are parametric.

 

Above are common level symbol we are using. What do you think is the best way to express those at documents using Revit?

Physics in Revit

In my opinion, one of the wonderful things in using Dynamo is that it makes you to be able to simulate any physical behaviors of real world in Revit.

A tablecloth makes dynamic shape which depends on shapes of tables and the shape of itself. And we all know that it's all about physics(including gravity).

Railing on Topography

Have you ever experienced to create a railing at a topography in Revit?

Regular Polyhedrons

It's not surprising that most of regular polyhedrons can't be created easily in Revit. Just few of 3d software have a feature which can create regular polyhedrons instantly.(eg. 3ds-max)

It is well known that there are only 5 regular polyhedrons.

And it's quite easy to make them with paper works.
But it's not that simple to create them as 3D computational model. You have to deal with a bit complicated angles to create one.
