Hi,
At the moment I am busy with a project of a building with 15 levels. And I want to know if the building can handle its own weight. I have sent the project file from Revit Structure 2014 to Autodesk Robot 2014 with only the dead loads of the floors. But after the calculation I can not get a good image of the dead loads on the building with the ''maps'' tool (Results > Maps).
Can you explain to me what I am doing wrong? And how I put the other loads on the construction in this model?

Results/ maps is used to see the forces/moments results for Panels(slabs , walls)
To see which loads are applied for a load case ,use View/Display.../Loads

In addition to Rafacascudo suggestion for checking the distribution of loads to columns and walls you can use the forces table for prior and the reduced results for panels table for later.

Ok, the dead loads of the concrete floors are visible now.
But the dead loads of the walls are still not visible. I have put the dead loads on the walls with (load definition > bar > uniform load) of the construction. I already looked at the settings by View > Display > Bars and Loads, but nothing became visible.
Can you please help me how I get those weights visible?
Is it " dead loads" due to the wall weight applied on beams(bars) , or is it the wall self weight??
- Self Weight of all modelled elements can be generated automatically by the program.
- Wall "Dead load" like wall finishing can be applied to a structural wall ( panel ) on Load Definition/Surface/uniform planar load
- if it is a brick wall(non structural) ,it can be aplied to bars or slabs(panels) as linear loads
