Hello everyone. In this lecture, I'm talking about using the Revit template file, creating your project file. Now, you probably get started next creating the Revit project. Let's find out Revit projects are contained in a single project file that are content file that is often based on templates. Now, there are simple templates comes to software. And this might be vary depending on country and what option you install.

So I'm show you just example, are working with a default in a variation of Revit models installed both empirical and a metric template. As a beginner or when you start your work. It is very important that you choose the right template in Revit application menu, you got that various option if you want to work in architecture time or construction or structure template, you can choose according to use that I talked about previous videos also. Now, in this lecture in this lecture, it goes into the deep and we see the Matic and empirical template and what are the differences and why that is very important to use this template in this project. So let's start when you go to the application rabbit application menu, you can see that if you want the new project, there is one option at the left corner of the site that is new.

When you click this option new the template file. In this template file, you get we get some option of construction template architecture template is structure template and mechanical template. Before that, I want to review about that, that I'm right now using Revit 2020. If you are using Revit 2019 the process are almost same, but there are little difference in the displays are shown graphics here in this 2020 that graphics are more clear, and it is the latest version. So it will be modified a little bit and give more features. Now, let's back to our topic that is template in Revit how we'll choose the template in Revit software.

So here you can see that conception architecture structural mechanical template as shown. If you want to use more of the templates gravich Revit have lots of template, you have to just download that template from Autodesk and then you can use it also. And Revit also have some templates that I showed here, how you use the metric or empirical templates here. So when you start this, go to the new then after New you can see some template and then at rights is one option that is browser scripted browser option. When you go to the browser option, go to the preview option. This preview, I have two templates that is generic in generic f sub samples of the Revit.

Software templates, go to the back option. And in India, we are using this mix of templates. There are more templates of us. It's according to the country that I told you before. That it's software that are used according to country also. Now, let's start with India.

I'm going to India and start the simplest of simplest template that is default metric template. That is the basic template that we have used as a beginner you have to I suggest you you can use this template. So let's click open this, go to the project and press OK now He can see that this Autodesk Revit 2020 version, this template of default metric that are open, you can see the elevation these are the simplest elevation that are shown in which we can work okay, we go to the Properties panel, that is very important thing, the change you find here that there is some difference in the default metric template or other construction or structure template or architectural template that you go for the variations according to this. I will see we'll see that difference later. Okay, so let's start here. This is a float now certain float.

Just if it's not visible to you, this you can type this plus sign this, click it. When you click it, you can see that here you find the float now, that is of level one level two site. After that, you can see the ceiling plan, level one level two, then you find the elevation East, North, south and west. Here. Below this, you can find legends, schedules, shirts, families, groups, and private links. This is the very smallest properties or the easiest properties that are shown here.

If you want to create a wall here, we'll go later for the wall. But I'll show you just one time when you press this wall command or you can type w A for shortcuts or you create a wall so you can find this one escape very easily. I will show you later how it's it will be modify how the wall is going to use and how the thickness and all the edits change edits in walls can be done later. So let's start this is a wall This is simplest wall so you can see I can create this wall I I was creating this wall and the level one. And when we go to the level two, and this is the sidebar, so you can see. Okay, so you can see that this wall is created fine.

Now, back, I'm going to modify painter. Okay, so this is the default metric panel. This is simplest and a basic template that I show here. Let's do one thing. Let's go to the another template and see the difference. What are the difference to the another template, the specific the specified template that he used, I'm going to the Revit application file there.

And then I go to the project, find the same option. It's open, go to the browser and then I want the Indian thing in this India. I want to use that construction default metrics. Go open it Okay, this okay. You'll find that the construction default metric is open here, fine, you can see that here the Properties panel are totally change, you can see the floor plan that is level one, level two. And then when we go to the site plan, this is the site plan, these two are three options are same, but after that, below this, there are some new options that are added right now.

That is that is front wall footing and slab fine. And you go to the below this you can see ceiling level one level two, and then after the you go to the elevation you find is now Southwest data same but when you go to the sheduled panel, when you click the plus button, you can see that there are lots of options that are created right now either showed you casework confidence. ceiling quantities door quantities, this is more specific as a construction work. So, you can see that you can go anywhere or you can just use that I will show you how this go to the wall Come on. Right, go to the floor plan and you just go to the world command and create a wall this rectangle and I want to place a door right now, just go for the architecture tab and choose this option what sorry do this though, we can use it.

You can use three dots here and do those here. Fine, just go to the Modify option because the command is in active mode right now I want to go to to stop this or escape. You can press escape two times or you can Go to the Modify option click it fine okay. So here I can create a wall. One thing I want to add up right now, if you if you take this, choose this door option and you can see without the wall the dough command is not operating. So if you want to use this dough, the fall isn't very necessary without what it's not it is not working fine.

So, the door is only working when you can create a one fine. So escape two times fine. So we are out of the command. Now, we go to the scheduled panel is the schedule quantities all and you see that though quantities go to the door quantities and you find that there are five doors dose distribution that is m single Festo and this is the type and the measurement that is 915 and 2134 mm, very good the width is 915 height and thickness the the shadows that are come here and you go there and you can see these are the door quantities that are already shown here. So, this is the very important features when you go when you do such types of work professionally and it's gives you the perfect working method to do that. Okay, so we'll change a little bit right now, this, this go to the this, use the controls to minimize this, okay, or you go to the architecture tab, or you go you just do one thing go to the floorplan and just click level one to come here.

Again, fine. Want to say that there are five those when you click it, you can see that this is door number one harriton here when you go there, so here when you go to the mark panel, so in the mark panel, the all the DOS remarks that are shown here, that is door number two, this is door number three. This is door number four and here I did because I press composer Okay, if you want this door so press the redo button. So you can find out this also you can see Mark five okay 1234 and five. This is the five dos where we have created. Here it's written don't one in every situation that is because this is this shows the types of the dough is the dough types.

Suppose we use the different or different or have different size to this The difference and how you can easily use this as a work. So we'll so we discussed so here I want to discuss more about the elevation or the. So if you go to the another panel that is the default default metric. So this open the new project, okay and go to the default metric again when you go to the elevation and then you find that when you go to the east, so there are only two levels that is level one and level two, fine. These are only two levels that is level one and level two. But when you go to the constant default map Okay, so when you go back, so there are two option to go back here you can see one, one icon here hear that is the switch window so you can switch that window so you can switch it From this and this suppose just click this arrow button and you go want to go to this sheduled or quantities.

So, you can come to this panel that is construction default template Okay. Now, I find when you go to the east panel sorry East elevation, so you can see that there are certain numbers of levels that are already created because this is a concession template. So, here it's already created you can find it the footing this lab orders are created here. Fine, okay. So these are the difference that you find here in the construction default metric template or a default metric template. Fine.

There you go to this South elevation, you can find is the South elevation when you go to the west elevation This is the West elevation. So, here you can easily find all the elevation with the more levels or more details. So, you can find it very easy to create any model or or or giving some details to the any model. So, let's discuss one more thing here, just even go to the new file and this one, this architecture construction just go to the structure template and just okay. So, you see hidden structure template, you find a temporary attribute chain and you find there is a few changes that you that is very important here. So these are the different types of this.

Templates like structure, architecture, and our and you can go to there, the construction template, the magic and impractical templates. There are lots of templates where you want to work, you have to choose that fine so At last I will just want to discuss about what is uses of this template is very important when you choose the work which type of work you have to know that which type of template is suitable for this work and the team is giving up useful information with the template you can easily convey or you can easily convey the information to your clients on the site or in the sites. So, it will be very helpful to use templates can solve all the set of costs task, there has always be some setup they have already do. Later in this chapter, we can discuss a brand new project. However you start with a template, we can constant here, the starting template, it is highly recommended recommendation in rabbit to the bigness, I don't already have highly recommended for the bigness So, these are all about templates.

Thanks for watching this
