[@CraigHetheringsting]

lol ive watched this video for almost every project ive done, you are my savior

[@genesiscelucia5270]

Your Revit tutorials helped me get through my semester this year.

[@foxyon4523]

It really worked for me after I look and try some tutorials, yours is the one that worked. Owe you a lot.

[@Superduperond]

Thanks! Looks really nice. To save time, demonstrate the "tab trick" while using pick lines or clicking edges for the fascia. When fascia command is active, simply hover over a line or edge and press tab and it will select all joined lines. Then left-click and all the fascia are created at the same time :)

[@RubbinRobbin]

Thanks didn’t know revit can tab through edges

[@AlexandraEdwards-q7l]

@balkanarchitect a revision for 2024 version would be great. Excellent video!

[@richarddaigle8777]

Perfect man, I am starting a new job and needed to brush up on my revit skills.

[@lakimsafwan1899]

sir , u dont have to ask us to like this video . obviously we'll like your video . because all your is too good and perfect

[@mpumelelozulu6268]

Balkan Architect, you're the GOAT.

[@GabeKLagos]

Thank you for making critically useful tutorials! I'm so grateful! I wish you great success in all you do!

[@samsam1991]

Good job you,I tried to medel it;it was difficult at first,but after watching the tutorial again and again,I now began to model it,but the surface splitting and exporting still giving me though time.You are doing a wonderful work

[@dorsanakhaei]

I just wanna thank you for your awesome tutorials, they're so helpful!!

[@yixuanwang5359]

the best video of site plan in Revit. thank you so much

[@eyoelgetachew6004]

big ups bro ur tutorials are really informative and one of the best i have seen

[@GentleGiant055]

YOU ARE THE REASON I AM PASSING MY THIRD YEAR WITH A HIGH GRADE. THANK YOU SM

[@rawkrXbabee]

you're saving my home reno assignment- Thank you!!

[@ivanpandzic8176]

Thanks for video. Instead roof family, I've used road family. Sidewalk and curbs modeled in place ( sweep) avoiding exporting and importing CAD drawing dwg.

[@shubhamkarki8939]

Thanks man. Please never stop making videos. Make it every day. Again thanks for your effort.

[@ridwanarifinarchitect]

my best lecture of revit

[@polyticalaanalysis9786]

thanks for your supports

[@zhangliao161]

roof + fascia for landscape, brilliant !!

[@AussieBIMGuru]

Interesting approach, shame about the roof categories having to be used for mass by face but makes sense given the limitations of the software. An alternative approach I'm going to run a tutorial on will be to use dynamo to 'drape' a floor with sub-points onto the topo using Dynamo, cut out the ground below and lower by a set amount to another level and use slab edges for the kerb profile.

[@inayir969]

Exactly what I needed at exactly the right time! I love your video's! Keep it up!

[@willievodka0505]

why i never found this channel before would have helped me alot.

[@shy3102]

I just subscribed to your channel today n watched a few videos of yours. I m a very experienced Autocad 2d user but had just started to learn revit. I just want to compliment you on your video clips n tips on Revit. It is v well produced n the steps n audio instructions are clear. Thank you v much. From Cy Singapore

[@viratmanchanda7516]

Fantastic workaround to create BIM objects for topography. Thank you so much!!!

[@steamsteam6607]

Edit subregion. Copy the lines. Starrt the Model line tool. Paste aligned. Use roof fascia with a profile for the curb.

[@crimson5158]

I was NOT expecting curbs to be this complicated sheesh

[@bolilino8161]

Thank you for explaining this thoroughly!

[@sam90o48]

love you bro, u gave me an idea to create walls following the topography with this method without dynamo

[@mouniibr3696]

You really helped me out! Thank you for your tutorials!!

[@angelajxne]

Thank you Sir! TNice tutorials helps alot !

[@tanveer101]

Very detailed and awesome videos bro, yours is the first channel I subscribed..thanks a lot and keep helping!

[@Patrickorwa]

I discovered that you don’t have to flatten the site cad from Autocad. Place points at the center of the elevation markers in AutoCAD then import to revit. Add topo surface then import points. At the dialogue box import the layer containing the points that you imported. This will form a surface. If the surface is too high or low , go to elevation and drag it to the light level and voila. You’ll can also align your surface in the x or y in the same way.

[@sajadkheirkhah5116]

Thanks so much for making tNice tutorials video! You really broke it down well.

[@prettyboychuks3368]

your videos are good and help me learn

[@melaniehunt9978]

this looks really awesome - i look forward to digging into revit for civil works for looks

[@Naxioan]

Fantastic and super clear tutorial and walkthrough! Thanks so much!

[@robalderman6979]

The last thing we need is architects doing site design

[@kundisrecto9389]

This tutorial help a lot to us... Thank You Bro and God Bless... Perfect!!!

[@pandarzzz]

Thank you for sharing this informative video... Site Plan is made easy, thanks to you...!!

[@joudreyalat8462]

Thank you so much you saved my life 🤩

[@aungkha5868]

creating the curb is like fking magic

[@exarch001]

Thanks for sharing this ! Very interesting 👏👏👏👏

[@argyroelectro]

They way you explain is quite good. I couldn't follow you on the sidewalk AutoCad creation and import.

[@sharchitecture8761]

You're an amazing teacher, dude. Thank you!

[@aparnawadekar1985]

Thankyou For Solving this problem ..

[@salmaelkhateeb1413]

you have read my mind i was gonna ask you to do that; thank you so much!

[@raphusnet1031]

Very helpful and useful videos. Thank you.

[@ankeettagde]

Wonder full work ! you made revit easy !

[@promilagagan7939]

thanku so much for your videos i learn alot ,thums up.

[@JavierOropeza08]

This all makes sense, but I am not sure if this is what someone would do in a production environment? Correct me if I am wrong. It just seems this is good for a rendering if that is what you are using revit for. Don't get me wrong, this was super helpful and very clear!

[@TATBIM]

Nice approach

[@mekiasmessele5813]

great video! But i think its easier to do the curbs with railing instead of fascia

[@nishadimuhandiram5143]

waaaw it's nice one.u did that i need.thank u

[@NuvemAnjo]

This is a very helpful tutorial, thanks!!

[@architectureaaron7373]

Great video!

[@isidrolopesdasilvaneto8826]

Perfect! Congrats!

[@isidrolopesdasilvaneto8826]

With respect to BIM, isn't it strange to use a roof to model the sidewalk and curb? Would there be another family to accomplish that?

[@VersusARCH]

Roads for the most part do not just follow the natural gradient. They have their own gradient which cuts into the higher terrain (with escarpment gradient of 1:1 or vertical if retained by a wall) or is mass filled over the lower terrain (with escarpment gradient of 1:1.5 or vertical if retained by a wall). Longitudinal gradient of the road is 1:10 max and lateral about 2% max if memory serves except in high speed curves. What you made there looks nice but is incorrect from a technical point of view. It would have been more pronounced had you created a steeper gradient terrain.

[@AruzOverrider_a-ruse]

A Great tutorial. Nice unusual approach :D

[@yuriykabanets7665]

Great Stuff! Thank You!

[@briandlessard]

This is great! Do you have a video showing how to change the road and sidewalk if the grading has changed?

[@vedant1019]

that’s deadass rn

[@slug182]

Thanks so much for this! It came at just the right time! Could you make a profound tutorial about railings?

[@htnarchitecturaldesignlab3314]

Thanks so much. You are the best
