Introduction1:02
Extract elements from cat files and convert them into information for automation with construction methods, while refining export workflows for cat products to stay up to date with possibilities.
Introduction to CAD Analysis and Clean Up3:03

Resource Files
Cleaning up an Autocad File8:00
Standardize the Autocad file by unifying the coordinate system and units, turning on all layers, aligning elements to a common origin, and exploding blocks for clean export to Revit.
Data Extraction4:11
Export model data using the extraction tool with millimeter units, select objects, and export key properties (X, Y, Z) to Excel, then save a function library for extraction methods.
Exporting as File8:22
Blocks Managment7:30
Extraction of Those Elements5:51
CAD Extraction

Importing Data Extraction with Properties8:04
Creating Sprinklers Network9:41
Creating Patterns of Connections10:52
Reading other file data for sizes6:10
Pull size data from external files and use existing intersections to locate elements. Extract location points, filter by percentage values, and create geometry with a defined radius for matching measurements.
Creation of Pipes by valules displayed7:13

Requirements

Need to know how to model in Autodesk Revit
Need to know how to manage a CAD File
Need to know Dynamo Modeling Basics for Geometry Analysis and Player

Description

This course its designed to help you extract from CAD files elements that are already created and transform them into information that is useful for dynamo so Revit Elements can be created with proper construction methods.

Its an incredible opportunity to try and explore information workflows and modify things on CAD files so that they can be useful for automation processes.

It can literally change the custom workflows of exporting cad to redraw all elements with the exact same precision, and it can apply to any type of project in which people are just using CAD projects but the required ended scope must be an Accurate and Managed BIM Model

This Course is distributed as it is.

We will work with two cad files to be exported read the information of them and recreate its location patterns and intersection, it holds quizzes on each module so that key concepts be refreshed and it holds two assignments for doing activities that would improve the learning process.

Join to a selective group that its looking for possibilities rather than restrictions, and be UpToDate for all the amazing possibilities that in any time can transform your way of working, to change it forever.

Who this course is for:

Structural Engineers that want to transfer CAD practices to Revit BIM Models
Structural Engineers that what to solve or model elements by Dynamo use
