Aims
The objective of this block is to learn how to use Revit and Cype Architecture to build BIM Architectural and MEP models. An overview of object – based parametric modelling concepts are also addressed. In addition, an introduction how to learn the principles of BIM using new teaching methodologies, such as gamification, is also presented.
Learning Outcomes
The student gets acquainted with object – based parametric modelling which represents objects by parameters and rules that determine the geometry as well as some non – geometric properties and features
The student gets acquainted with the use of gaming software to stimulate the BIM learning experience
Learning about REVIT software to develop Terrain, Architectural and MEP Models
Learning about Cype Architecture software to develop BIM Models
Evaluation Criteria
Ability to develop a BIM Architectural Models, using REVIT and Cype Architectutre
Ability to develop a Terrain Model, using Revit software
Ability to create 3D views and rendering using Revit software
Ability to develop a BIM MEP model, specifically the plumbing systems, to create isometric views and sheets using Revit software
