Like the columns, there are different types of walls that are able to be used in Revit, Architectural, structural or walls by face. Architectural walls are the most common to use and are what I used to construct the model for assignment 3. Structural walls give more detail on the structure of walls and are mainly used by structural engineers. Walls by face allows you to place a wall against a line, which is useful when the wall is an irregular shape. Like I said for the model as part of Assignment 3 i chose to use architectural walls because this allowed me to create walls with materials inside. For example, I was allocated the brick veneer exterior walls for my model, so I needed to make sure that the materials inside consisted of plasterboard, a stud frame, a thermal barrier, an air cavity and then the bricks. For the interior walls, it allowed me to do a basic wall that had a 100mm depth as per the plans given to me. The handy thing about drawing walls in Revit is that you don't need to manually join them all up. They chain together. This means that if you were to draw walls one after the other in the type of wall then they will automatically join. This is useful particularly when it comes to corners.The other thing that can be done to corners is to fillet and apply a radius to them so that they have a slight curve to them. | Materials that make up the brick veneer wall Section View of the brick veneer wall which ends at the first floor |
