kindly help, when i do the automation, i find my analytical members especially beams below the nalytical floor panel, yet i see yours seem to align at the same elevation, how do you get to set that .? thank you
Sorry for the late reply, to align your beams with the analytical floor panel, you can follow these steps: Select the beams that are below the analytical floor panel, then go to the Properties panel and look for the "Base Level" parameter Set the Base Level parameter to match the level of your analytical floor panel, Once you set the Base Level parameter correctly, your beams should align with the analytical floor panel. and ofc let me know if you need further assistance!
Why I am not able to see an analytical model in the Revit structure 2023 version? That was visible in the 2022 version. Is the analytical model visible in the 2024 version?
If you created it in Revit 2023 or 2024, you'll be able to see it But since the model is in Revit 2022 I suggest you don't migrate to a newer Revit version unless you wanna automatically generate a new analytical model
You can check if nodes are connected by enabling the analytical model in the Visibility/Graphics tab: Go to Visibility/Graphics (VG) and check “Analytical Model.” Use the Check Connections tool in the Analyze tab. This will help you see if the nodes are properly connected.
Thanks for the great video. However, I followed the exact same steps you did, but the different elements of the analytical model are not connected with each other as they are in yours, and that creat a problem when I try to send the model to Robot. Can you suggest what my problem might be? Thanks in advance.
You're welcome ! Check for : Improper Joins and use Join Geometry to connect elements. Ensure ur elements are set for the analytical model Look for overlaps or gaps that prevent connections. Use Check Connections to identify and fix issues. And ensure all elements are structural types
Can we automate floor items with dynamo? For example i have brick walls layout on first floor and the second floor is also having the same layout. When i do changes to layout of walls on first floor then the same changes replicate on the second floor as well.
Hi, yes that's possible, you can follow the script below and let me know if you have more questions: 1. Get All Walls on First Floor: Select Model Elements node: Select walls on the first floor. Element.Type node: Get the type of the selected walls. 2.Filter Wall Types: List.FilterByBoolMask node: Use a boolean mask to filter only the walls of interest. 3.Create Walls on the Second Floor: Element.Geometry node: Extract the geometry of the filtered walls. Element.Curves node: Extract curves from the wall geometry. Translate node: Translate the curves to the second floor level. Wall.ByCurve node: Create walls on the second floor using the translated curves. 4.Parameterize for Future Changes: Element.GetParameterByName node: Get relevant parameters (e.g., wall height, thickness). Element.SetParameterByName node: Set the parameters for the walls on the second floor based on the first-floor parameters. Now, whenever you make changes to the layout of walls on the first floor, you can rerun the Dynamo script, and it will automatically replicate those changes to the second floor. I hope that was helpful
Thanks for the video. It is very helpful. Is your model a structural model or an architectural model? If I start with an architectural model, do I need to build the structural model first? In addition, could I do this with Dyanmo and control the boundary condition, floor/beam/column/foundation size, and load with Excel?
Thank you for your comment! I'm glad you found the video helpful. My model is primarily a structural Revit model, but you can definitely achieve similar results starting with an architectural model. By setting your elements as structural elements. I've included two videos below that can guide you in getting started with modelling the structure with Dynamo. As for controlling more complex aspects like boundary conditions, I can start working on a script for that and will share it with you once it's ready. ruclips.net/video/XYgJ1LKSRUU/видео.html ruclips.net/video/pfdXu2phKc0/видео.html
Thank you very much! You make very good videos. I found adding boundary conditions to the bottom of columns and walls takes lots of time. Is it possible to add the boundary conditions with Dynamo?@@HowToBIM
Expecting more about structural, subscribed ✌️

@@HowToBIMinfortunately its not working in revit 2025
I had to move all my beam up to fix it

@@HowToBIM Thank you dear.
Anytime !
hi , can we can correct the analytical model with dynamo ?
Correct it ? How exactly ? It shouldn't have any errors if you've generated it from a revit's structural elements
U are amazing❤❤❤❤
Awww thanks
I'm happy my content was helpful ❤️❤️
can you share the family part
The boundary conditions?
