Professional Massmodeling –Rendering Video Tutorial
Instructor HandoutCreated by: Marvi Basha, Klaus Hyden und Philipp Müller Autodesk® Student Experts TU Graz September 2010
Introduction:In this Tutorial you will learn important methods for sketching easy and complicated free forms with Autodesk Revit Architecture. To be able to present effectively architectural drafts, we will deal in this Tutorial also with the architecture visualization.
„ Professional Massmodeling “ is the third Tutorial of a series of three Tutorials for Autodesk Revit Architecture in 2011. This Tutorial is based on "Getting started" and "Advanced Detailing".
Information:The files were optimized for demonstration purposes, we recommend to use the matching file to every video.
We recommend to use the latest version of Autodesk Revit Architecture for this training.
You can find more learning documents and useful information on the Autodesk® Education Community.
The videos were optimized for Microsoft® Windows Media player. We recommend watching the videos in full screen mode.
The complete building is available. (RAC_2011_ENU_Tutorial_1.rvt). To comprehend the steps individually use the Revit Architecture files (step_xx.rvt) for each video.
1
Step 01Extrusion mass, work plane, void
Extrusion‐ Create in‐place mass
Draw linesPlacement place: level 1
‐ Create form‐ Extrude surfaceUnlock the extruded mass
Edit mass‐ Move surface, edge and point
Use temporary dimensions
‐ Scale surface
‐ Rotate surface
Work plane‐ Select surface‐ Show work plane‐ Work plane viewer
Void‐ Draw lines‐ Create void‐ Change the coordinate systemObject and project related coordinate systemedit void
2
Step 02Conceptual mass, blend mass, edit mass profiles
Conceptual mass‐ Create a conceptual massCopy levelsLevel 2: height 20mLevel 3: height 100mChange units: Meter & Centimeter
Blend‐ Draw different profiles in 3 levelsCopy lines to clipboardChange the work planePaste lines in other levelsEdit Lines
‐ Create form
Edit profiles‐ X‐RayMove surface, edge and profile
‐ Add Profile‐ Add Edge (create a polygonal model)‐ Select and edit profileDraw a new profile
Load mass into project‐ Load into project‐ Place on work plane
3
Step 03Reference line, freeform surface, revolve mass
Reference line‐ Draw reference line in level 1‐ Set work planeSelect the vertical work plane of the reference line
‐ Draw and then copy a spline
Freeform surface‐ Select all lines and create formX‐RayEdit splineRotate surface in the right viewHost: not associated
Revolve‐ Draw reference line‐ Set vertical work planeDraw a vertical line as axisDraw profile
‐ RevolveEdit massCopy mass
‐ Join geometry
4
Step 04Swept blend mass, dissolve mass, spline through points
Create sweep‐ Draw a path through lines, spline or arch‐ Add reference point‐ Select reference point and draw profile‐ create sweep
Dissolve mass‐ Edit profileChange path
‐ Add profileRotate profile
‐ Dissolve massChange profilesCreate swept blend mass
Spline through points‐ Create 3D splineCreate a 3D path around an existing building using the 3d snappingSelect reference pointDraw triangle
‐ Create void
5
Step 05Divide surface, surface patterns, adaptive elements
Divide and cut surface‐ Select the freeform surface and edit massModify > Edit in place
‐ Select and divide surface Modify > divide surface
Edit gridU grid: distance 2mV grid: distance 5mRotate grid lines with 10°Deactivate v grid lines
Intersects‐ Draw grid lineDraw lines
‐ Divide the surface using the drawn linesModify > IntersectsMake lines unvisible
‐ Change patternElement properties > typeType: Rectangle Panel ‐MPK
‐ Edit elementElement properties > border tile: empty
Add edge panel‐ Curtain wall panelAdditional files > Rectangle panel ‐MPKAdd the panel with drag and drop in the drawing area
6
Step 06Curtain panel by pattern (part I), type parameter
Curtain panel by pattern‐ Open Family > Curtain PanelMetric Library > Curtain Panel by Pattern > M_Rectangle Surface
Add type parameter‐ Draw reference line‐ Place reference points‐ Set dimension‐ Add dimension parameter
Create curtain element by pattern‐ Draw spline through points‐ Create surface
Test the panel‐ Load into project‐ Divide mass surface‐ Change patternType: M_Rectangle Surface (solid)
‐ Edit typeHeight: 0.5m
7
Step 07 Curtain panel by pattern (part II), instance parameter
Curtain panel by pattern‐ Edit familySelect curtain elementEdit family
Add instance parameter‐ Add material parameterSelect surfaceElement properties > material > add parameterSelect family type material
‐ Add yes/no parameterSelect surfaceElement properties > visible > add parameterInstance parameter > yes/no parameter
‐ Model the second panelAdd visibility parameterSave family
Test curtain wall element‐ Load curtain element into the project‐ Overwrite existing version and ist parametersSelect curtain panel
‐ Change materialEdit type > material: metal ‐ aluminium
‐ Change panelSelect curtain elementElement properties > graphics > select the window panel

Step 08Mass floors, floor area and volume calculations, place floor, wall, curtain system and roof by face
Copy levels‐ Copy levelsNumber: 30Distance: 3.5m
‐ Create floor plansSelect all copied levels
Mass floors‐ Create mass floorsSelect massSelect levels
Floor area calculation‐ Open mass floors schedule
Floor, wall, curtain system and roof by faceCurtain system by faceWall by faceRoof by faceFloor by face
‐ Update to faceSelect related hostsUpdate to face
Step 09Walkthrough
Walkthrough‐ Create walkthroughDraw pathSet variable heights
Edit walkthrough‐ Edit view propertiesWalkthrough – open and activate viewEdit view rangeChange the view directionChange visual style: shaded with adges & ambient occlusion
‐ Edit pathChange height
‐ Change acceleration
9
Step 10Render materials, exterior daylight render, background image
Render material‐ Material propertiesChange render appearanceChange image: „Panel_MPK.png“Scale: 1,5m Add bump: Panel_MPK_bump.pngScale 1,5m
Split face‐ Split element faceSketch split line
‐ Apply material
Concrete sand
Day rendering (exterior)‐ Quality: MediumResolution: printer 150 DPILighting scheme: exterior: sun onlyBackground: few cloudsRegion
‐ Custom quality settingsQuality properties: customImage precision: 6Soft shadow precision: 3Background : City Park Graz.jpgProperties: strech, offset height: 31mm

Step 11Night render, render without textures,adjust exposure
Save to Project as Image‐ Save view to project as an image‐ Select view in the project browser > right mouse button > save to project as imageSet 2000 pixel
Ceiling‐ Create ceilingOpen ceiling plan: level 1Automatic ceilingSketch ceilingAlign the grid
Night RenderingQuality: mediumResolution: printer 150 DPILighting scheme: exterior: artificial only
Render without textures‐ Change phase filterView properties > phase filter: without materials
‐ Render settings:Quality: mediumResolution: Printer 150 DPILighting Scheme: Exterior: Sun only
‐ Change Sun settingChange time: 01:00
Adjust exposure‐ Adjust exposureExposure value: 3White point: 8000
‐ Export image as.png 11
