In this post, you'll learn how to use Structural Analysis to design load-bearing structures. In doing so, you'll need to examine various properties of a building as well as understand the requirements for various materials and loads that the structure might have. You will also learn how to prepare a preliminary weight estimate and will perform a static analysis. You'll then learn how to perform a dynamic analysis of the structure based on the previously performed static analysis. Step 1: Start up Revit, create a new project, and call your project "Structural Analysis Project." To begin this exercise, you'll need to define some drawings. Open any floor plan in Revit and set up building elements on the floor plan. This will be your starting point for design of the load-bearing structure (located at Figure 1). Then select "Drawings" in the Special tab of the ribbon bar (on the left). A new dialog box will open, as shown in Figure 2. This dialog box allows you to define a collection of drawings for each level of the structure. In this exercise, all the floor plan views, as well as any roof or wall planes that comprise the maximum size of the maximum story or AOV (Area of View), will be set up as a drawing associated with each level. What this means is that each floor plan view, each roof plane and wall plane will be set up as a drawing associated with the level at which it intersects. This ensures that only the appropriate amount of material will need to be placed in the model. Select all building elements on the floor plan, and select "Place" from the Design tab of the ribbon bar (on the left). This procedure places building elements and imported properties on a current view without copying them to a separate drawing. The procedure also copies any attached modeling objects such as lights, doors and windows into the project. This preserves their original state for later reuse during dynamic analysis. You can change properties of these objects with reference to their original state using the Change Properties tool (Ctrl+F11).For this exercise, you'll be creating a design for a structural frame. You can create a frame by selecting any wall or floor plane in the project and then selecting "Create Structure" from the Design tab of the ribbon bar. You can also create a frame from an existing drawing, such as a floor plan view or 3D structural model by selecting the drawing, opening it in Revit and then using "Create Structure" from the Design tab of the ribbon bar. In this part of your exercise, you'll create a structure for a framed deck. The deck is attached to two walls and consists of a floor with no wall elements attached to the floor. You'll use this design as a starting point for building other frames later on. You can find more information about framing in Part 1. eccc085e13
