Instruction and Tasks

Applications

In this exercise, we are using:

Autodesk Forma and

Autodesk Revit

Extensions: Forma-Revit Add-in.

Objective

Students will learn how to conduct a pre-site analysis using Autodesk Forma by referring to the provided webcast and bridge the model with Autodesk Revit.

Webcast Review

Watch the assigned webcast carefully.

Take notes on key steps demonstrated for site setup, data integration, and analysis workflows in Autodesk Forma and Revit.

Practical Workflow: The "Forma" Approach to LOD

LOD 100 (The Massing Stage)

Action: Use the "Line Building" and "Basic Building" tools.

LOI Captured: Total floor area, building footprint, and site coverage.

Proposals: Rapid iteration. Students should create at least 1 new "Proposals" at LOD 100 to be exported to Revit.

Handover to Revit: Export the optimized model to Revit using the Forma-Revit Add-in.

Prepare the mass to be exported to Revit or AutoCAD.

Assessment & Quality Control

Visual Check: Does the massing respect the site boundaries?

Metadata Check: Are the building functions correctly assigned (Retail/Residential)?

Interference Check: Are the sun/wind goals met?

Submission

Capture the image of the 3D Model and Plans as well as Schedule exported to Revit (LOD 200) using screeshot and paste it in the Forma Board.
