Creating Solid Form by Using 2 Planes

Anonymous

I have a complex form for my Auditorium Design. I have both attached my autocad section and the plan for this process. once i attach the plan to the X plane and the section to the Y plane I need to know whether i can combine both the surfaces at the same time to create the form. because when i create a form using the section sketch it does not coinside with the plan form. I want to know how can i modify the sectional form that i created inrespect to the plan so that i can create the form i need. I hope i explained this as simply as possible as i could. thank you. A rough sketch of the form i need is attached as an autocad file as well.

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE

There a several ways to create this in Revit.

 

1. Create a Mass ( Conceptual Massing tools. ) Then create Walls/Roofs by Face. This will take quite a bit of practice to get good at if you have never used Massing tools in Revit. But you can get the results you are after.

 

2. Create Floors, Walls and Roofs and/or Ceilings.

Create a form based on the section profile, then add 2 voids on plan to cut both sides of the form at an angle based on the floor plan profile.

See Toan's more detailed reply--which is exactly the method I described.

Thank you so much. i have been trying to do this by creating the section mass and locking all the sides to different planes. and then edit the 2 sides in plan form to coincide with the angled walls. and that results in breaking the section form by dismantling the locked parameters.

thank you for your time on my issue. this solved the issue. thank you so so much. you saved my day.
