Approximately 9,900 Employees Nationwide Approximately 37 Companies - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

• MEPFP Contractor • Headquartered in Houston, TX • Approximately 9,900 Employees Nationwide • Approximately 37 Companies Nationwide • Over 100 Office Locations • Projected Annual Revenue is 2.5 Billion

• Best Practices for Multi-User Setup • Leverage Basic Graphical Programming • Create a Basic Script • Basic Selection Nodes and Different Methods of Selection • Manipulate Data for Fabrication Parts

• Dynamo is a Visual Programming Tool That Runs Within Revit • It is Open Source • Works with Pre-Packaged Nodes of Code Instead of Strictly Raw Code • Includes Dynamo and Dynamo Player (easier to execute scripts)

• For Efficiency and Productivity • Research and Development • Quick Solution to Issues for OpCo’s • Prove POC Before Coding for Add-in Buttons

• Place RTS Points on Grid and Offset a Specified Distance • Code Compliance: P-Trap Checker • Automation: Place Families • Place Excavation Box on Underground Plumbing to Calculate Removal and Fill in a Revit Schedule • Set Elevation of Fab Parts Based From a Reference Fab Part • Slope Checker for Gravity Pipe • Create Sheets With Views by WBS • Set Pipe Stubup Elevations a Specified Height From F.F. • Push and Pull Data to and From Excel

• Manage Node and Package Paths

• Browse For Folder

• Strings • Integers • Code Blocks • Boolean • Data Manipulation by Pull and Push Nodes

• We Will Retrieve Some Fab Part Data From The Revit API And Push it Into a Predetermined Parameter

• Use Get and Set Nodes for Parameter Data • Math (+, -, x, /) • Retrieve X,Y,Z Locations, Manipulate X,Y,Z and Push the Data Back Into a Location Point • Convert Units • Create And Add View Filters for Fabrication Parts and Revit System Items • Array Fabrication Parts With Specified Offsets

• We Will Retrieve The Elevation From a Reference Fab Part and Set Other Fab Parts to the Same Elevation
