Create a Flat Information Matrix

Hi all,

 

I am trying to create a Flat Information Matrix. By this I mean a type of accommodation schedule for our flats, but in greater detail to include the following headers:

 

  1. Flat Number
  2. Flat Type
  3. Occupation
  4. Tenure
  5. Area (m²)
  6. Area (ft²)
  7. Part M category (i.e. visitable, wheelchair etc.)
  8. Duplex
  9. Kitchen Type
  10. Bathroom Type (this could be a bathroom and an en-suite and a WC)
  11. Wardrobe Type
  12. You get the gist.....

So, I was thinking "aha, I can do a multi-category schedule", but in reality, that is very restrictive in terms of the categories that you can include. E.g. I need Rooms, Furniture, Plumbing Fixtures to compile the above.

 

Then I thought that I could create 3 separate schedules for Rooms, Furniture & Plumbing and just place them side by side on a sheet. At least they would update automatically.

 

But, I am now having problems getting the bathrooms (plumbing) schedule to work. I have created plumbing fixture families for all bathrooms, en-suites and WC. But I need to show all this on one row:

 

Flat Number       Bathroom Type     En Suite Type     WC

A.101                    TYPE B1                   TYPE S1               

A.102                    TYPE B1                                                TYPE W1

A.103                    TYPE B1                   TYPE S1               TYPE W1

 

Problem is that Revit puts the information on separate rows, so:

 

A.101                    TYPE B1                   

A.101                                                     TYPE S1   

A.102                    TYPE B1                  

A.102                                                                                  TYPE W1

A.103                    TYPE B1    

A.103                                                     TYPE S1           

A.103                                                                                  TYPE W1

 

So, I have 2 massive headaches, one is not being able to combine it all into one schedule and the other is not even getting separate schedules to work.

 

This might take a while to resolve. Can anyone point in the right direction or experienced this for their work ?? Would appreciate a fresh view at this, because I need to clear my brain :zwinkerndes_Gesicht:

 

Thanks.

have you looked into Embedded schedules? from what you explain, i would try a Space schedule, add the parameters that are specific to the space (number, type, occupation, areas, etc...). spaces are typicaly a MEP catagoyr, but there is no reason you cant use the functionality in an Arch model. Then pick the Embedded tab and add the fixtures.

Is it not possible to do it with an Area schedule and assign project parameters to populate the matrix?

hmunsell - looked into the Embedded schedule, but this was based upon spaces rather than rooms. It does look like you can do it for rooms as well, but I need to sort out the issue with the families in the rooms first.

 

TimELZ49 - It is possible as you say. We do this for the items 1 to 8 in the list above, all room parameters (rather than area as you say). This works perfectly for our standard Accommodation Schedule. However, I wanted the bathrooms, kitchens & wardrobes to be pulling the information from the families to avoid mistakes.

 

ToanDN - The Dynamo method looks like hard work. What I need is to be able to schedule the families to know what room they are placed in. Not only that, I need to be able to say a wardrobe is part of bedroom 1 or bedroom 2, even though I only have one room for the whole flat.

ADDITIONAL:

 

I tried a similar thing with the Wardrobes (Furniture Schedule), essentially the same problem.

 

I have wardrobes in Bed 1, Bed 2 and Bed 3. When I create the schedule, I still get the information on separate rows.....see image below.

 

I even tried a calculated parameter: if(Bedroom 1, GHL Wardrobe Type, ""), which is hte last 3 columns.
