Areas can contain several rooms.. an area can be a whole company which has rooms like (conference room, kitchen, waiting room, etc) but it's all one area
Have really enjoyed watching your videos, very clear to understand. I am an Interior documenter and work on commercial projects, will look at few of your courses, basically helping me with documentation. any specific ones would you suggest? thank you
Hi Balkan, can you explain how one would add the areas to the Legend as totals. for example in your legend above totaling up all the office space. Not having to use a schedule, but just as a legend with the total area values?
Check out some series on Navisworks - great tool for coordination. Rich has a good series that covers the fundamentals: ua-cam.com/video/fykn9Ww1wc8/v-deo.html
I dont know why autodesk took away GIA as an area type. All the types included dont seem to take away the area of internal walls from area plans now, so its impossible to calculate the actual floor space
Need to know how to sum up all the areas in a schedule, with total footage. There has to be a way to do it automatically and not by hand in the schedule.
thank you for the clip! really helpful! but one question, the area plans(rentable) should show up in the project browser like your clip but mine didn't show up. only didn't show up the project browser list. where can I find that?
Use actual area plans if you want to do this - the technique shown here is not best practice. You can add new area schemes under: Architecture ribbon tab Room&Area tab > dropdown > Area and Volume Computations >Area Schemes tab This allows you to define multiple area plan types such as GBA, GFA, NLA etc. Note that areas work differently to rooms - you draw the boundary as opposed to walls bounding the area. Hope that helps!
its annoying everything including this simple tag also has to be a 'family' very unfortunate my revit not equipped with that 'area tag.rfa'. Where can i find it online? Tq
Hello, I am a new Revit 2019 user (technically installed it about a year back but never used it). I am yet to solve the issue of families libraries and all that; I get the error "No structural columns (or any member) family is loaded in the project. Would you like to load one now?" and clicking yes lands you in an empty folder. I have tried downloading libraries online but they won't load even if placed in the default folders. Are you able to make a video on how to fix this issue? Thanks.
@@aatifawan781 in the floor plan's view properties there should be a field called view range. If you click on the grey edit button, it will have a height for the cut level. If you do not want to raise the level this high in the entire floor plan, use a plan region, which can be found under the view tab, in the floor plan drop down.

@@AussieBIMGuru thanks gor the reply sir.. But I intergrated using DB link.. But we cant integrate multiple project in single server.. Becoz they got overlaped annd not showing separate data.

@@AussieBIMGuru For example.. A and B building is there.. If we make query in SQL server we should get A building 1st floor living room 1000 sq. ft and B Building 1floor Living room. 250sq.ft.

Hi Balkan Architects, what's the difference between a 'Room' and an 'Area'? In what situation would you use these?
Areas can contain several rooms.. an area can be a whole company which has rooms like (conference room, kitchen, waiting room, etc) but it's all one area
Also rooms are used in facilities management
Have really enjoyed watching your videos, very clear to understand. I am an Interior documenter and work on commercial projects, will look at few of your courses, basically helping me with documentation. any specific ones would you suggest? thank you
why calculation was not from the faces of walls ?
Wonderful, Thanks.
Can you make a tutorial explaining difference between room & area & space & zones
Hi Balkan, can you explain how one would add the areas to the Legend as totals. for example in your legend above totaling up all the office space. Not having to use a schedule, but just as a legend with the total area values?
How to change that ugly purple lines with unfinished and irregular edges? Many thanks for the tutorial.
How do you change the names of the Areas if you have to in the legend

How do you add an area for open plan? If you wanted to break it into sections
Hi! I Love your tutorials!!!

Thanks a million.

You would probably need to install the libraries again.
Can this be done with just dwg files?
I have one question about window or ventilator sill height when its up to 5 feet then its now showing into 2d plan why?
Raise your view range

This isn't a Revit area plan... technically it's a GA plan with colour scheme.
What is the difference?
