ARCHITECTURAL MODEL

When finished with this tutorial, your new assignment is to build an study model of the modern house.
To do this you will need to:
1. Transfer the linework of your Revit model into AutoCAD. To do this you just need to File > Export > CAD > dwg each view that you want to put in AutoCAD (2 Floor Plans, 1 Site Plan, 4 Elevations). You will need your visual style in Revit to be set to 'Hidden Lines' for it to export correctly. Also, remember that you can hide elements in each view if they are in the way of what you want to export. DO NOT export the 3D View to AutoCAD; it will not work correctly. Watch the following tutorial for a quick summary:

NOTE - you will need the following 31 pieces:
9 exterior walls (2 are glass)
1 roof
2 floors
9 interior walls
10 railings (2 stair rails)

​2. Clean up and scale your line work in AutoCAD. The scale for this will be 1" = 8'-0", which is a 1 to 96 ratio. So your scale factor will be 1/96. Then print your pieces to one of the lasers. To do this you correctly, you will need to follow the checklist below:

TOPOGRAPHY MODEL
Follow this tutorial in order to produce the topography pieces:
