Requirements

Good knowledge of Revit structure

Description

In this course, we will start learning Dynamo for Revit, we will start from zero knowledge in Dynamo to reach an intermediate level, you don’t have to get any previous Dynamo or programming experience, just good knowledge for Revit.

This course for Revit structure users or any Revit users helps them to develop their working techniques to finish their daily repetitive tasks in a short time with minimum effort, the course focus on structural examples.

The course will cover the following topics: -

1. Define visual programming

2. Define nodes

3. Read inputs

4. Read outputs

5. Connecting nodes

6. Dynamo geometries

7. Define and work with (points, curves, surfaces, solids, vectors, and planes)

8. Create Revit elements

9. Edit Revit elements parameters

10. Convert data from Excel file to Revit

Our role as engineers is to work smart not hard, to save time and effort for ourselves and our team, after this course, you will be able to make your own Dynamo scripts where we will work with different ideas, some of these ideas mentioned below

1. Element’s ids

2. Calculate volumes

3. Create drop panels above columns

4. Divide slabs with structural framings

5. Calculate insulation area

6. Adjust RC footings offset

7. Place Tags

8. Place spot elevations

9. Create sheets

10. Duplicate views

11. Set parameters

12. Read Excel

13. Read DWGs files

14. Columns Reinforcement

15. Set rebars as solid

16. Join all Revit elements
