Hi,
I am about to start a precast slab. We will also do the shop drawings for the precast beams and planks.
The way I see it I could approach this in 2 (3) ways.
1. Create my Precast beams and slab profiles and use the beam tool (or beam system) to place the beams. Then take a detail view of each plank and beam type where. In the detail view I can then do the dimensioning and show the reinforcement (with detail lines)
2. Create a Generic Model of each Beam and Slab Type that is drawn to the exact dimensions and the place them in my model.
3. Could you use ASD for this? I haven’t set it up and I am not to sure how I would go about it so I think this option is out of the question (for now). But I would like to know if this would be easier and better than doing it in RST.
We have done a lot of precast shop drawings in the past but would like see if it is possible to achieve in Revit.
Thanks for any suggestions and thoughts
J
