Hi Balkan, your tutorial was so impressive, clear and easy to understand. I prefer to watch and learn all the things that I do not know about Revit. Do you offer course online? How do I access, what qualification do you offer after completing and how much is the online fee?

[@lily2011uk]

Hello Balkan architect, Great video. You are an amazing teacher. With these massing model, can we draw construction walls?
Thanks in advance

[@gemmapromano]

Thanks be to God..

[@glenn3646]

Cool

[@ahmedezzel-deen4295]

Thanks a lot for all your help .. Also I have a question I created a complicated surface but when I upload it into the project, this error appears "mass contains only mesh geometry which can't be used to compute mass floors, volume, or surface area" .. So I can't create a roof out of it .. I searched for the solution a lot and it seems that I have to convert it to 3D solid geometry so how can I convert it or how can I solve this problem with any other methods

[@mindbender3379]

My Mind is blown - thank you for showing the basics of shapes!! I can't do this in my CAD program - well I can but the objects when created are difficult to manipulate on the fly. The software just isn't programmed in that way. I have a few questions. Please pardon me, I'm a total novice at Revit - looking at new CAD & modelling software platforms. Questions are:
1. Do you use the typically "recommended" hardware setup from Revit AutoCad or go beyond it?
2. Do you recommend 2 GPU cards or just one?
3. How does Revit compare to 3D Blender? (A program I'm looking into using)
4. are there as many textures as used in Blender?
5. Can you export Models to Blender, if so, do they translate as a 3D Model or as a 2D object?
Thank you in advance for your input - I'll keep watching!!!

[@jagz_erywer4077]

Great video! I am trying to make a Javier Senosiain style, organicly shaped, house, and I am using the "organic sheet" method you show in this video to achieve that. Is it possible to do void forms or to cut out a window or skylight in that kind of mass?

[@jiwonshin1660]

Thanks always for awesome tutorials! How can we add material such as wire or glass on top of those form?

[@panda5324]

HI Balkan I have a question
I have created the sphere but after I created the mas I don’t get the green, blue and red arrows to extrude it and I selected the half of the sphere using tab as just clicking on it select it all any one know what’s the problem ?

[@agnieszkasojka4379]

@Balkan Architect I need help. I love your short tutorials and thinking about subscribing you but I would like to find out first if there is a solution to this conundrum. Question refers to 3D sweep. I created 3D path, used picked edges (pick path), added profile...and all looks good apart from the part that the profile is rotated around the path. It means that at the and of the sweep it is in different position with reference to the path (rotated around). I think I checked everything on the internet and nope...no solution so far. HELP ! :D

[@LoveNeonHitch]

Hey Good Tutorial ! I have a question: do you know this is also possible in the LT Version? I need a answer asap please

[@sanjaypatil5302]

Nice, can you show us how to make stone (pebbles )in revit?

[@anastasijaceliseva3155]

Hi! Thank you for your lessons. I tried to create the last object that is shown in your video (spline with profiles on it), I selected all the elements that tI draw, but all the time appeared a mistake "Unable to create form element". What could be the problem? Thanks in advance.

[@onlinesharath8357]

frist you should draw the vertical profile properly after you got better result

Any idea how to make a curved mass with my specific dimensions?? I want to model a ship but the bottom of the ship it's curved..

[@ranafattahi7122]

I have a problem with covering mass surfaces with wall. When short surfaces meet eachother with an angle, after covering them with walls the corners of the walls pass through eachother and can't merge together. I need a tool like trim or join them but it doesn't work. please help me

[@civilengineeringwitharas4776]

Is Massing useful for Creating Advanced structural elements like irregular plates or something like this, or massing is completely architectural ?

Hi Balkan, I created a mass, draw a reference plane, I click finish by error, now I can not go back to the original mass window, how can I go back without creating a new mass?

[@onyedikachukwundimako4399]

Thanks Balkan Architect. Please how do I download your videos without having errors while playing them.

[@174ANH]

Hi :-) Do you know whether it is possible to check the volume in m3 of the mass you are building?
I’m working with some soil mass turning it into some landscape shapes and I need to know the volume of the soil mass I’m working with. Thanks

Hi everyone, please help me design a kind of dome (the base is an ellipse and flat, and I want to set manually the height of the dome). The revolution tool doesn't allow me to do that.

Great illustration of massing! I've just created a quick video making the mass of a famous building design by SOM. Let me know your opinion.

Great. Many thanks for that.
I am learning on Revit MEP 2019 (having used AutoCAD MEP 2019), and I can create a cube and once created, I can resize the length, width, and height of the cube, but I cannot as yet put any values on it. For example, if my cube was 1,000mm × 1,000mm × 1,000mm, how do I reshape my cube so that it now has the dimensions of, say, 2,000mm × 750mm × 250mm?
Many thanks.

It wont be a cube.

Hi Balkan, can you explain wherever the 15$ tier includes the 5$ tier (Revit files), and so on does the 30$ tier offer the 15$ tier ? That's no so clear for me. Best regards.

[@balkanarchitect]

If you get the 30$ tier you get access to everything, if you get the 15$ tier you get the 15$ + 5$ tier (advanced courses and project files) 🙂

[@mrbenson63]

@@balkanarchitect thanks for the precisions. Can I first take the 15$ tier and switch to the 30$ tier after ?

[@balkanarchitect]

Yeah sure, you can switch at any time!
