Design Integration Using Autodesk Revit 2021

Design Integration Using Autodesk Revit 2021

Designed to provide a well-rounded knowledge of Autodesk Revit tools and techniques all three disciplines of the Revit platform are introduced in this textbook. This approach gives you a broad overview of the Building Information Modeling (BIM) process. The topics cover the design integration of most of the building disciplines: Architectural Interior Design Structural Mechanical Plumbing and Electrical. Civil is not covered but adding topography to your model is. Each book also includes access to nearly 100 video tutorials designed to further help you master Autodesk Revit. Throughout the book you develop a two story law office. The drawings start with the floor plans and develop all the way to photo-realistic renderings similar to the one on the cover of this book. Along the way the building’s structure ductwork plumbing and electrical (power and lighting) are modeled. By the end you will have a thorough knowledge of many of the Revit basics needed to be productive in a classroom or office environment. Even if you will only be working with one component of Revit in your chosen profession this book will give you important knowledge on how the other disciplines will be doing their work and valuable insight into the overall process. The first four chapters cover many of the Revit basics needed to successfully and efficiently work with the software. Once the fundamentals are covered the remaining chapters walk you through a building project which is started from scratch so nothing is taken for granted by you or the author. | Design Integration Using Autodesk Revit 2021

Engineers working with SOLIDWORKS are often faced with tedious repetitive work that can consume a lot of time but it doesn’t have to be this way. One of the most exciting aspects of SOLIDWORKS is its robust programming interface or API. The SOLIDWORKS API allows you to write code that can perform almost any series of actions for you. SOLIDWORKS was built from the ground up to automate and in this book you will learn how to take advantage of these powerful tools to speed up your work. Automating SOLIDWORKS 2021 Using Macros is designed as a tutorial to help beginner to intermediate programmers develop macros for SOLIDWORKS. Experience with programming isn’t required. The book starts with a new chapter on the fundamentals of Visual Basic. NET and the SOLIDWORKS API to make the learning process easier for beginners. The rest of the book introduces you to developing macros using the SOLIDWORKS API. The book concludes with a chapter dedicated to some of the author’s favorite source code for you to use as the basis for typical automation procedures. The focus of this book is primarily on the Visual Studio Tools for Applications (VSTA) macro interface. It covers many of the major API functions through practical use cases. It will teach you the fundamentals of Visual Basic. NET as well as SOLIDWORKS SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional SOLIDWORKS Document Manager and Excel API functions. Author Mike Spens has been professionally developing macros for SOLIDWORKS for more than a decade. He has helped numerous companies develop their own programs and streamline their workflows. If you want to learn how to develop your own macros for SOLIDWORKS following best practices and using well written code then this is the perfect book for you. | Automating SOLIDWORKS 2021 Using Macros A guide to creating VSTA macros using the Visual Basic.

Finite Element Simulations with ANSYS Workbench 2022 is a comprehensive and easy to understand workbook. Printed in full color it utilizes rich graphics and step-by-step instructions to guide you through learning how to perform finite element simulations using ANSYS Workbench. Twenty seven real world case studies are used throughout the book. Many of these case studies are industrial or research projects that you build from scratch. Prebuilt project files are available for download should you run into any problems. Companion videos that demonstrate exactly how to perform each tutorial are also available. Relevant background knowledge is reviewed whenever necessary. To be efficient the review is conceptual rather than mathematical. Key concepts are inserted whenever appropriate and summarized at the end of each chapter. Additional exercises or extension research problems are provided as homework at the end of each chapter. A learning approach emphasizing hands-on experiences is utilized though this entire book. A typical chapter consists of six sections. The first two provide two step-by-step examples. The third section tries to complement the exercises by providing a more systematic view of the chapter subject. The following two sections provide more exercises. The final section provides review problems. Who this book is for This book is designed to be used mainly as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students. It will work well in: a finite element simulation course taken before any theory-intensive courses an auxiliary tool used as a tutorial in parallel during a Finite Element Methods course an advanced application oriented course taken after a Finite Element Methods course | Finite Element Simulations with ANSYS Workbench 2022 Theory Applications Case Studies

Autodesk Revit 2018 Architectural Command Reference

Autodesk Revit 2018 Architectural Command Reference

This book provides you with an easy to use reference for all of Autodesk Revit’s Architectural Commands. This command reference can be used as you are working in the software to help you understand what each command does and how it may be used in your overall workflow. Also included with this book are nearly 100 video tutorials which will further help you master Autodesk Revit. The book is organized in the same way the Revit user interface is presented. Each tab of the Ribbon is represented as a chapter in the book. Within the chapter each button is represented in the book as it appears on the Ribbon from left to right. Organizing the book in this way makes it easy to locate each command in the book and understand its use. For each command entry you will see a brief description of what the tool will do how it is used and the options you will be given as you use the tool. In some cases the author’s suggestions or tips about the use of the tool will also be presented. As you learn the tools in Revit you may not need to read the full entry on the tool. To help facilitate this many of the tools include a “Quick Steps” section to explain the tools and options in outline form. This book will help facilitate your learning of the Revit interface and all of the commands. For more experienced users the command reference may introduce you to commands you have not used before or help you with commands you use less frequently. Whatever level of user you are this command reference becomes a valuable resource to you as you work with Revit. | Autodesk Revit 2018 Architectural Command Reference

AutoCAD 2024 for the Interior Designer

AutoCAD 2024 for the Interior Designer

Focused around a hotel suite project AutoCAD 2024 for the Interior Designer provides the Interior Design student with a non-intimidating tutorial based approach to learning the AutoCAD program. It accomplishes this by taking students that have no computer design experience from simple commands to complete projects in this single-semester sized text. This well organized and progressive approach to learning AutoCAD sets this text apart from others. To support all users this book covers AutoCAD for both Macs and PCs. The emphasis of this book is on easy to understand descriptions and instructions allowing the non-technical artistic visual learning Interior Design student to quickly get past the fear of using the computer to produce drawings. The focus is entirely on the use of AutoCAD for the Interior Design field and not simply architectural drawings. Chapters alternate between command descriptions which are organized by a command set category and tutorials. This allows students to easily refer back to command descriptions without hunting through a tutorial that introduces commands as it progresses. The emphasis is on the practical use of commands using the AutoCAD ribbon workspace rather than the multiple (and seldom used) command options. Multiple tutorials of the hotel suite which include floor plan elevation views dimensioning and plotting provide a practical application of the commands learned in the preceding chapters. Completely dimensioned drawings are provided at the beginning of each tutorial so that the advanced student or an instructor led class can complete them without going through the step-by-step process. This textbook is classroom proven and relevant interior design homework problems are provided. After completing this book the student will be able to create all their 2-D Interior Design work using AutoCAD.
