Sean D Burke NBBJ Senior Associate / Digital Practice Leader WORKING SMARTER IN REVIT WITH DYNAMO Objectives • • • • Logic, Language and Flow Define workflows and share Automate Repetitive Tasks* Use on Real Projects * not so much the twisty towers Computational BIM Networked Society Sustainable Technologies Carbon Reduction Big Data Reality Capture Access / Mobility Infinite Computing Design to Fabrication Embedded Workflow The Sharing Economy Open Source Computational BIM • Mortal Enemies? • or • BFFs? Computational Design vs Building Information Modeling Computational BIM • • • • • • Parametric Tools Constraint-Based System Contains Data Enables Automation Requires no Knowledge of Programming Large Ecosystem of Plug-Ins Open Source • • • • Software Hardware Fabrication Shelter Shapeoko 2 • Internet of Things WHY DYNAMO? SO… Enemies of Efficiency • • • • Modeling more than you should Repetitive tasks Seeing tasks as independent Poorly managing change A More Efficient You • • • • Just-Right Modeling Automating Tasks Developing Workflows Supporting Iterative Design DYNAMO? So, What is Dynamo? • • • • Open Source (free as in Free Beer) Visual Scripting Language Originally only for Revit It’s a modeler Core Competencies Geometry • • • • Points Curves Surfaces Solids • Families, Views, Sheets, etc… Data Exchange Compute Core Competencies • Make Relationships and Systems • It’s more than stuff • Revit is already Parametric The Race is On How Do I Get It? • Revit 2015? You have it now! • Or… • DynamoBIM.org Getting Started • On the Add-Ins tab • Works in project or family • Learning: – Samples – Videos – Documentation Sharing is Caring Package Search • • • • • • In Dynamo Simple one click install It just works Download AND Upload Rip, Mix, Improve, Share! EXAMPLES Values Driven from Images Working with ‘regular’ designers • • • • • Read image file Sample at Grid Get Color Brightness Scale Z-axis Place an object Excel to Stuff • Something from ‘almost’ nothing – Excel, XYZ coordintates – Connecting points – Adaptive Components – Points and lines (just geometry) Excel to Stuff • Making proper Revit • Geometry – Adaptive components, placed Project to Surface • Revit: • Adaptive Components • • • • • Dynamo: Collect Points Project Vertical Lines Find Intersection Place New Instances Project to Surface Sean Burke, NBBJ Simplified Revit Export • Nate Holland, NBBJ FAR - live feedback • • • • Select Surface Select Mass Compare Areas See Results Envelope Calcs Nate Holland, NBBJ DEMO DWG to Rooms THE FUTURE… Fitness Finding • What? Fitness Finding • Fitness Function via Alan Moylan, aka @BIMgeek Performance Analysis Interior Visibility Analysis Interior Visibility Analysis YOU GOT THIS! #FollowFriday @ShellShockRocks #RevitRockStar Thank You!
