Creating a subdivision for an architectural drafting class

Hi, I teach a high school drafting class and I would love to have students design houses that are all part of a subdivision. My goal is to create one large plot, which I could divide into about 25 individual plots for students' houses to be placed. It would be so cool to see each house on this larger plot, as if walking through a neighborhood. Do you know of any how-to video or step by step instructions I could follow in order to do this with my class? Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.

 

Interesting exercise. There are 2 ways to do it, depending on your resources:

 

Method 1) All students contribute simultaneously to the same file. For this you need to teach the topic of worksharing, worksets, central files, local files.

 

Method 2) Each student works on his or her own model, and then you create a site plan model where you need to link all the models of the students and place them on the site. This offers the opportunity to teach the topic of shared coordinates and/or origin to origin, methods of placement. For this method, you don't necessarily need to teach the same topics that I mentioned above.

 

Method 2 is what usually happens in architectural offices. Multiple models are linked into a site. Each model contains worksets for other models and for the site as well.

I think, that second method is the best one!

Agreed,

That is what we do at the office.

Method 2 is the best.

 

Be careful to link models as overlay though, in order to avoid circular references.

 

Cheers,

François

Thank you for the excellent ideas, Alfredo! Do you know where I could find out how to make a site plan and link the student houses to the plan? Thanks!

The site plan is just a classic project, into which you model the site, and you position it (with geolocalisation).

You then link the revit files independently into it!

Search youtube.com for "revit shared coordinates" an you will find plenty of examples of how to do this.
