Autodesk Releases Revit Extension 2014

Revit Extension 2014
A few packages of Revit Extension 2014 have been released on the Autodesk Exchange App Store. These tools are Subscriber Benefit Apps.

Civil Structures for Autodesk Revit 2014

Using these Bridge Modeling Revit Extensions, you can generate bridges based on user-defined criteria.

Users can define basic parameters of the geometry of a bridge including: a road profile, a deck, abutments, piers and railings.

The road profile may also be imported from a LandXML format file.

The bridge is generated based on user-defined families that are provided with these Revit Extensions.

Frame Generator for Autodesk Revit 2014

The Frame generator extension is used for quick defining of simple 3D models of one-bay or multi-bay halls.

It includes the load definition, carrying out calculations, designing steel bars and generating documentation for the calculated structure.

SDNF Import/Export for Autodesk Revit 2014

The SDNF - Import/Export extension gives the ability to export and import a steel structure Revit model to SDNF file format and generate a structure model in Revit Structure.

Composite Design for Autodesk Revit 2014

This application helps perform basic structural analysis and design calculations of composite steel beams in a Revit Structure model.

Using this application, you can more quickly design / check the behavior of composite beams or you can design an entire composite floor system on a floor by floor basis within a single Revit Structure model.

The feature works for general composite steel beam design, but will also function for non-composite design.

All design is based on AISC 360-05.

Full bidirectional integration with the Revit Structure model is achieved using this application.

Excel Based Model Generation for Revit 2014

Using the Excel® Based Model Generation extension, you can generate Revit model based on the data defined in a Microsoft Excel sheet.

The environment of the Microsoft Excel sheet enables automating the process of structure definition.

The extension offers 2 methods of defining / modifying a structure model:
  • Entering parameters directly in the Microsoft Excel sheet
  • Manual definition in the dialogs used for defining parameters of individual structure objects.

Timber Framing for Autodesk Revit 2014

Using the Timber Framing tool you can generate timber structure for walls and roofs in Autodesk Revit software application.

Timber Framing tool is composed of three extensions: Wall Framing, Rafter Framing and Roof Trusses.

Wall Framing
This extension allows framing selected walls.

The extension imports walls, recognizes openings and presents them in a 2D/3D viewer. Walls can be individually framed with available framing parameters, such as: Connections, Studs, Plates, Blocking, Cripple studs, Headers, Sills.

Rafter Framing
This extension enables the definition and generation of various types of “A” frame roof models.

Roof Trusses
This extension enables the definition of truss system for roof models.

You can define parameters for the following roof structural elements: Wall Plates, Ridge Trusses and Roof Ends.

Grids Generator for Autodesk Revit 2014

The extension enables the definition and generation of axes grids and levels in Revit projects.

This extension allows generate columns, beams, walls, and footings at grid intersections.

This extension provides the ability to:
  • Specify the home position of the generated grid
  • When generating radial grids, define an internal radius between the center of the circle and the first grid in which lines may not be drawn
  • Exclude some specific characters from the grid numbering
The following grid types are available in the Extension: Cartesian and Cylindrical.

CIS/2 Import/Export for Autodesk Revit 2014

The CIS/2 Import/Export extension gives the ability to transfer a steel Revit model to CIS/2 file format, compliant with the ISO-10303-21 standard.

Files with a structure description in a CIS/2 format have the *.stp extension.

A CIS/2 data file may contain 3 levels of information, depending on the type of application:
  • Structural analysis - analytical model
  • Structure element design - drawing model
  • Structure detailing - detailing model

Compare Models for Autodesk Revit 2014

When the application starts, it recognizes the number of opened projects created in Revit.

If more than two projects are opened, a dialog displays where you can select two projects to be compared.

Comparing models that were created as a result of copying elements (for example, through the Clipboard) may not lead to good quality results.

Original element identifiers (ID) may be changed in the application, which makes element identification and correct comparison of models impossible.

After selection of two Revit models, the main dialog of the application, used for comparing models, displays.

The detailed comparison can be reviewed by the user and can also be presented in the form of a report.
