Introduction to Creating the Sub-structure

00:00

SIMON JONES: Co-authoring a structural model in Revit,

00:03

creating the substructure.

00:06

In this learning path, we shall be reviewing the steps

00:09

for completing the structural design with the creation

00:12

of the foundations.

00:15

First, we're going to create some low ground bearing walls.

00:20

Next, we shall place some concrete pads

00:23

with and without piers underneath the barren walls

00:26

to support the steel columns.

00:29

This will also involve an understanding

00:31

of how material assignments impact how the concrete work is

00:35

represented by Revit.

00:37

Finally, we shall add strip foundations

00:40

to complete the substructure work.
