[@jheka05]

I'm currently re-learning revit and for every question I have you always have a video solution! Thank you you are a life saver!!

[@Daniel_Mumba]

Your videos are literally the definition of tutorial

[@rahmanrahmani2896]

[@marthaadeyanju5286]

Thank you balkan for all the tutorials, really helpful. I've learnt a lot from them all. You are blessed.

[@srdan4418]

Svaka ti cast. Vrlo si nadaren I dobro si naucio koristiti Revit :). Zbog tebe sam, nakon 16 godina koristenja AutoCada odlucio nauciti kako crtati u Revitu. I imas definitivno najbolje tutoriale. Hvala ti I samo naprijed ;)

[@mosholombi]

Nice Video tutorias Balkan....so helpful Isaac watching from South Africa

[@leeroyjenkins7475]

Amazing tutorial. As a structure engineer i was looking to learn structural analysis and design using revit but clicked on this cuz it looked cool. and boi was it cool :D

[@shankarraparthi6281]

Hey Balkan you are a genious,always i learn a new technique from you guy. thanks

Such an amazing and clear explanation. Really appreciate it. Thank you.

[@raymondogilvyrijo6373]

What about if i have the same apartment in diferent levels but with small changes like a diferent wall or entrance? How can adapt the change without disconnecting to the group?

Thank you sir for all the tutorials, really helpful for me.

[@davidslattery2703]

Very basic tutorial, would of liking to see the additional features while modify a certain groups with the prompts "Fix Group / create new Group" and why this happens that would of being interesting and useful.

great job balkan!!! you are my teacher!

[@talorkollie4162]

great job you are the best balkan

[@revittube9700]

Nice one, Balkan. You could also array the levels which would be faster than copying. And linking might be an alternative option to keep the file a little lighter in big / complex projects.

[@RubbinRobbin]

RevitTube how can you array floors with respect to level constraints?

[@MRTIJUANAPS3]

What does linking do?

very useful video...... Thank you

[@syedatiqabbas5036]

Really really great sir u make easy to multi story building i love you sir , really i love u

[@tulisanes]

linking is the best option you use group for furnitures or non essential elements

[@matthewl9907]

Can u ungroup the building then? Incase you wanted the levels to be mixed used and not the same internally ?

[@Ghada_-nb6sh]

You are perfect 👌🏻✨

[@jossievillalta8703]

hello. it is very amazing but were the a stair?

[@abhisheksen325]

sir I am requesting you to please make a complete video about G+10 Multistory Building in Revit Architecture,Structure,MEP. Thank You

[@neharawat6037]

I have a doubt, what if we create unit in link file and wanna put unit numbering in main file at the same time we need room name for the units?

[@canadianconsultant]

Group vertical array says it's constrained while we're pretty sure we made no constraints , therefor we used the copy and paste aligned option.. So two more questions for the experts (Balkan the expert).. Does an array use less computer resources than the copy and paste aligned option. Second question, How to show all contraints at one, cause the "reveal constraints" doesn't seem to show anything, cause we actually made none. Your tips for which Revit should be the smoothest to run on PCs are highly appreciated too, if there are differences between them 2023, 2021, 2017 and their usage of cpu and computer resources.

[@canadianconsultant]

Additional information related to that issue, after removing elevators, Groups are no longer constrained and could be 'array-ed' vertically. Simply-Complicated revit, Maybe there're contraints within the elevators family.

[@mosholombi]

Hi Balkan....what's the different between Cope And Notch in Revit?...found under modify tab. Please help

[@ulysseslee9541]

I think we need to separate the top & the level 1 group as 2 individual group for modify that top floor have its ceiling/roof and the level 1 wall covered the floor. Or do another way: just have a roof off-set at the top floor and the wall off-set over the ground at the ground floor?

[@smailpour]

this is a great tutorial. Thanks. I want to know here you bring this kind of chair.

[@chrisnguyen2335]

Hi, may I ask how did you do to make the building present as the thumbnail picture? Thank you so much for your video.

[@rashidsawant]

insert of offsetting floor inside why cant we off the floor slab in visibility graphic.....???/

[@mojeebsadat6117]

Very useful thanx

[@nyarkoaugustine425]

Hello Balkan architect you are the best I like you tutor very much and I want help me tutor about building documentation

[@thenmolimuniandy8333]

Hai can you help me how to do electrical for multiple floors

[@gershmann147]

why does the assembly scatters when i rotate a group?

[@talb5627]

Thank you for the great tutorial! As you left it, there are lines separating the groups which make up the building. Is there a way to get the walls to "connect" in the view, while still retaining the groups?

[@user-li6rt3xz6j]

Please i have one simple question! How you made the floors that was separated, i mean look your thamnail, i want such like that how you made that. Because i am student i want to prepare a presentation.

[@elnourcec2198]

Thank you, Is it possible to use array instead of copying group?

[@FourthAxis_1010]

not showing offset level in dotted line when offset value put

[@rachelhamilton398]

How do make the stackable "exploded" axon of the group?

[@ghassanjenainaty4212]

please can you show me how the floor plans were designed from scratches?

[@ramadanrashad4223]

very good..but please how tiles added when you copied how you get that thickness

[@arunbiswas2375]

Where will u put your columns and beams in this building

[@EugenevanWyk]

while groups are fine for "creating" your buillding,... you will need to move away from them, (elements in the group will take on the workset, the group was created in,...... in short,.... worksets and groups don't mix) as for editing group / sketched elements,.... DBL click on element to edit, (no need for going to ribbon),...... but easy to forget this DBL click function,.... I do all the time

[@abrarsaad942]

Omg I love you!! you saved my life hahahaha

[@Aryan-ow5jd]

Balkan, why don't you do a video on companies that use BIM in Europe. What is BIM and what are the other softwares of BIM and how do they function.

[@luketoms6110]

I wonder if this will work for piping systems just the same as multiple floors of service in a corridor and riser's would it still keep the system connected.

[@linguoo]

How do i get rid of those lines in each levels? I mean all those seams you can see on exterior wall facades

[@manauarjamalrizvirizvi1246]

Hello Sir, i am an architecture student not a 3d model maker. So, please tell me how to get rid of these glitches but in an authentic way bcs editing the floor will hamper the scheduling. I am waiting for your reply.

[@manauarjamalrizvirizvi1246]

and you can also get rid of glitches just by assigning wall height offset as same as the thickness of the slab ( which is controlled by the property bar )

[@rossbateup4709]

how do you delete multi groups

[@nizarnouili2186]

Hello Balkan Architect, I really like your tutorial because it is simple and usefull in the daily practis. I have 3 questions: can I use groups for electrical installation? I mean in a building like a hotel with similar rooms or can I use groups for one installation type like the installation in bathrooms of a multi-Storey building? Last question: if in one level you have a small difference, how can you adjust it without changing all other levels? thanks a lot body in advance!

[@dilafrozakarim9461]

Hello Sir, Can you kindly tell me how to only save the reinforcement profile of a multistory building in revit?

how can i rename level 2.80 please give me answer urgently

[@aleenathammasorn9007]

Thank you for the tutorial! by the way I have a question : Does Revit has any command like 'make unique' in Sketchup? (basically, it makes some copied group(s) unique and when you change them it doesn't affect the rest of the copied groups)

[@krisrutherford3975]

did you find an answer to this query? This is exactly what I am looking for

[@aleenathammasorn9007]

Kris Rutherford yeah, kind of i guess? 😂 you can edit type of the group in type properties just like any other elements in Revit

[@cathychoi6959]

@@krisrutherford3975 you make a new nest group on top the old group name the way, revit wont recognize it anymore

[@aly5908]

I would appreciate if you could provide a DEMO on a multi different levels, not identical levels.

[@rikijean4115]

DAMNNN

[@dineshbasnet7288]

Sir make the video to copy multistory building with column- beam and cantilever slab. Slab has certain thickness but floor has no thickness so why we forget to make slab

[@TravisThompson10]

cutting the floors to the interior face of a wall isn't modelling a building accurately though. If you want a "3D" view to not show the floor bands, its wise to use filters.

[@thorrunarsen5652]

But what if u want to change one wall different from the rest in a group but it will also change all rest of floor levels. Is there way to make exception somehow for one group?

[@cathychoi6959]

you make a new nest group on top the old group name the way, revit wont recognize it anymore

[@shazamshabir6788]

Hello Balkan Architect. How can I 'orbit' my project on Revit without clicking and sliding that 'cube' (perno) with mouse? Is there any solution?

[@hungthuynh402]

Hi Balkan. Great tutorial as usual!!! I just have a question. Do you think Group or Link works better for multilevel apartment? My understanding is that group is easier to copy between level but it will significantly slowdown Revit performance when the project goes larger. Linking seems to provide better performance but copy between level is a pain in the neck.

[@balkanarchitect]

If you just group it it's a bit easier to change the floor plan, as you don't have to exit the project to open the linked floor. But if you have a large project, with multiple people working on it, it might make sense to link.

[@haseebyaquobi8305]

Wenn we want to change only top floor und ungrup at the end do we have anymore our walls as an element?

[@aethylwulfeiii6502]

Nested links is much safer for work. That way people cannot go exploding all the groups Willy bully and groups have huge bugs.

can you plz plz do a tuto of an auditorium i need to do a conferance room for an administration i dont really know how to create a circular auditorium seating room could u plz help me

[@mrbenson63]

Hi, nice tutorial. What's happen if I want to make a local adjustment in a group and not to propagate it ? Of course I can ungroup and make some modifications, but I want only specific object to be unlinked, for example to change the type of the table (round instead of square) and keep all other objects (wall, window, furnitures...) linked to the original group.

[@aethylwulfeiii6502]

This is why you should use links instead of groups, or rather turn your group into a link before you copy and align to selected level, after that you can save as a different file then edit the new file and link the new file into the link as a different unit type.

[@abdulkamali9477]

Arwa E Yousef you can put mass roof it will accept it. Just change the settings of the roof to be like floor e.g materials and thickness if it

[@arwaestudy097]

[@abdulkamali9477]

Arwa E Yousef in the Architecture tab there is an option for roofs. If you press on the little arrow it will drop down three options roof by sketch , roof by face and another one. Just choose the roof by face and it should work. Just click on the faces of the mass that you want to put the floor (roof) on

[@arwaestudy097]

@@abdulkamali9477 the proplem isn't making mass floor for the outline faces i mean the floors for a multi-storey building ar high scraper like level 1,2,3,4...etc and then converting them to architecture floor

[@abdulkamali9477]

Arwa E Yousef oh ok. Do you have your levels set e.g. Level 1,2,3,4? Choose the mass then the mass floor will unlock and just choose the levels you want to put floors on. Check your levels in elevation

There are limitations to groups. For example if you mirror the group. Errors come. Also when you add a Reflected ceiling freaks out revit

[@aethylwulfeiii6502]

I tend to use groups only as a step into either turning into groups or I explicitly plan to explode them like an array.
