Revit & Rhino Workflow Course - Create and Document Incredible Designs

[@sebastianedson8636]

Useful video!! I hope you'll make another one about Rhino.Inside Revit

[@kylesinko]

Thanks! It may come in the foreseeable future.

[@archietaftazaniazra7592]

Hi! Thanks for the Video. Btw Is there a way to put a material on the facade that we have made from the rhino?

[@khalel6035]

I received an error 'The writing plug-in failed' while exporting the model to SAT file after 20:48

[@ochogajohnson9161]

What are your system specifications...for rhino

[@kylesinko]

I have a GTX1060, i7 CPU, 32GB of RAM but that isn't necessary. 8-16GB of RAM will do the trick with any decent processor.

[@rachaelkunda4631]

hi kyle love your work , what program did you start with to dreate the building rhino or revit ?

[@kylesinko]

Thanks Rachael. I began with Revit. Cheers

[@nestorsebastian9371]

Great, your work is awersome.

[@kylesinko]

Thank you very much!

Very Nice mane, I just started to use this workflow I mostly use Rhino, but use revit to get my plans/Elevations/Sections/ or any other drawings. The only other issue was when creating my sections, I like to override them in black using the Visibility/Graphic tool, but it doesn't override the rhino export, do you have any solution for that?

[@kylesinko]

That's usually what I use the workflow for as well Ivan. To make sure section cuts apply to the imported Rhino model, you need to import the sat into a new family and then load that into the project. It's a weird workaround but that's the solution I found. All the best

[@ivanaramburo4030]

@@kylesinko Importing the SAT into a new family? can you elaborate more on that?

[@kylesinko]

@@ivanaramburo4030 Sure thing. Rather than loading the .sat file (the file exported from Rhino that you are trying to import) directly into the project, try going to "File" > "New Family". Once a new family is open, go to the "Insert" tab, and import the .sat file into the family as per the video. Once it's imported into the family you can click "Load into project" or a similar button in the top ribbon. This will essentially be loading the object into your Revit project as a .rvt file, allowing section cuts etc to recognise it. Let me know if you have any troubles

[@sugarstarist]

Nice video! Can I ask one question - from your experience what are the main obstacles of using Revit/Dynamo to complete the whole process of creating these fins or other similar geometry? for example lack of function like tween curves? thank you!

[@kylesinko]

There are methods to do this with just Revit. I could have created a beam/column profile and arrayed that geometry using the Array tool or Beam System tool, which is not a bad way to do it. You could also use Dynamo, though I haven't used it enough to talk about it's processes. Cheers

May i know...is rhino is a tools only been used only for modeling purposes only ...Coz i have not seen seen rhino as a tools been used for any documentations purposes ...such as VCD or construction documentation drawings ..or been used in construction industry ..TQ

[@kylesinko]

Correct. It is primarily a modelling software that allows you to create more complex geometries than other documentation software, such as Revit. It is unusual, but you can create 2D drawings for documentation from Rhino too. Though, they are not graphically amazing.

[@witdoloz]

Awesome content. Thanks very much!

[@kylesinko]

Thank you! Glad you liked it

Hello, thank you for this useful video, God Bless 😇💐

[@kylesinko]

Thank you Sukhpreet, you're welcome :D

[@VeronicaMartinez-kx4fx]

I am following all the steps only issue I am having is that when I import my file back into Revit the model is way too big and out of scale and it is not imported into the original point. I am not sure why I am having that issue. Could it be the conversion from inches to millimeters? I am form the US so maybe I need to add another step to that? Thank you for all your help!

[@kylesinko]

Hi Veronica, you might be right. Inches are 25.4*1mm. Does that conversion add up? Otherwise it may be a setting to do with scale. It sometimes just takes a bit of playing around with, unfortunately. Cheers

[@jeffharbaugh1824]

Hey Kyle - I currently do architectural metal facades using 2D cad but want to take it to the next level with Revit/Rhino. I know how to use both programs at a very basic level. Which course of yours would be the best for me to take? Thanks!

[@kylesinko]

Hi Jeff. In my Revit to Rhino course I model a metal fin facade in Rhino and import it to Revit. You would definitely find that course useful. successfularchistudent.com/courses/revit-rhino-workflow/ For a more in depth Revit training, check out my 3 Revit courses starting from Beginner to Advanced. successfularchistudent.com/revit/ Cheers!

[@jhonnyleonr.2699]

Awesome bro, what do you think about Rhino Inside Revit?

[@kylesinko]

Cheers mate. I mentioned in another comment that I think Rhino Inside Revit is fantastic, but it is very complex for beginners to pick up. It's also relatively new and a bit buggy. Overall, can't wait to see how it advances.

[@jhonnyleonr.2699]

@@kylesinko Oh, that's true, I hope you post a basic tutorial about that

[@SLEEPY-CELESTIAL]

is their a way to get the revit software for free

[@kylesinko]

Students can get a free subscription for Revit, Revit LT is also a more affordable package with only a few limits to it.

[@mohammedhariss6661]

revit and rhino are 3d redering softwares?

[@uzayozbey]

Nope, they are both modelling softwares. But ofc you can use them for rendering with the help of vray, enscape and etc.

[@luieescobar4664]

I use rhino amd matrix for jwellery designing ! 🤧

[@iqratech2695]

Awesome

[@kylesinko]

Thanks

[@SLEEPY-CELESTIAL]

am a arch student and am have a hard time getting a software rhino or revit

[@kylesinko]

Revit has a student version which is free, Rhino does not but has a 90 day free trial you can utilise.

[@abobakrhelmy746]

get into pc 🥸🥸

[@mohamedsalim7036]

There is something called RHINO INSIDE REVIT Why didn't you use it? Isn't that better?

[@kylesinko]

Rhino Inside Revit is great, but most people won't use it. For starts, it's new software that has a list of bugs. You require another subscription that most people won't purchase if they already have Rhino. Additionally, it's not beginner-friendly. This is a beginner's course and takes the simplest approach and path that most beginners will take.

[@indramal]

Why Rhino? Why not blender?
