Create sheets in Revit

00:04

To create a set of construction documents for your project,

00:07

you need to first create sheets and then place one or multiple views,

00:12

such as drawings and schedules, onto those sheets.

00:16

In this example, you create the sheets.

00:19

Note that sheets can be created with or without a title block,

00:23

but it is easier to base your sheet on a title block template.

00:27

To complete this exercise, open the CreatingSheets [2024].rvt project.

00:35

To create a sheet, on the View ribbon, in the Sheet Composition panel, click Sheet.

00:42

The New Sheet dialog opens, with any title block templates already loaded into the project in the upper portion of the dialog.

00:50

If you need to load a new title block, you can click Load

00:55

and navigate to the title block you want to upload.

00:58

For this example, in the New Sheet dialog, select the D 22 x 34 Horizontal title block, and then click OK.

01:08

Revit creates a new sheet, which becomes the active view.

01:13

In this case, in the Project Browser, under the Sheets branch,

01:17

the new sheet appears with the name G002- Unnamed.

01:23

To rename it, right-click the sheet and select Rename.

01:27

In the Sheet Title dialog, change the sheet Number to A113

01:33

and the sheet Name to Elevations/Sections.

01:37

When you click OK, the information automatically updates on the title block.

01:42

You can also change your title block parameters,

01:45

either in the Properties palette under Identity Data or directly within the title block.

01:52

To do this, select the title block, and then click on the field you want to change.

01:59

After you make the change, that parameter is automatically updated in the Properties palette.

02:05

Now that you have created sheets, the next step is to place views onto those sheets.
