Revit can now link a large number of file formats stored in BIM 360 via a linked Coordination Model.

Energy analysis model created based on the current view. Note that the “current view” must be a 3D view.įigure 2. The visibility of elements within the view may be controlled by a section box, view filters, visibility/graphic overrides, etc.

For example, there needs to be an option to define some wall(s) as adiabatic when using this new workflow option. This new workflow is still not perfect, but a step in the right direction. Small non-conditioned out buildings on a property, such as a barn, garage, pool equipment building, etc.Unless the entire building below was set to non-room bounding, it would be included in the energy model. A penthouse remodel within a high-rise building.Previously, Revit could only create one large EAM that included the warehouse and would also calculate its energy loads. A large existing warehouse-type facility with an attached, much smaller two-story office addition.Why is this helpful? Here are just a couple of examples I have encountered: Previously the EAM was created from everything in the model with the only filtering options being phase or room bounding, which would be considered destructive in most cases to required modeling and documentation workflows. Generate Energy Model by Viewįor those who use Revit’s energy modeling workflow, as we do at Lake|Flato, you will like the new ability to create an energy analysis model (EAM) by view. I want to start with my personal top three favorite features in Revit 2024. Please keep in mind that I am a registered architect (WI) and work at Lake|Flato, which is a top-ranked architecture firm, so this article mainly focuses on the platform and architectural features.
