Analytical to Physical Automation

Generate the structural physical model for selected analytical elements and update the structural physical model based on the analytical model changes.

Some projects are started from the analytical representation of the model. Creating the physical elements based on the analytical model can be tedious work if not automated. Aside from automating the creation of physical elements, the physical from analytical automation also helps with the update of the physical model based on analysis results.

Physical from Analytical Automation provides automation for:

• Structural columns (vertical and slanted), structural framings (beams and bracings) from analytical members.
• Walls and floors from analytical panels.

To use analytical to physical automation

1. Open your project in Revit.
2. In the Analyze tab Structural Analytical Model panel, click (Analytical Automation).
3. From the drop-down list, select (Run analytical to Physical for Buildings).

Using the physical model as context, generate the analytical elements and connect them. Once the analytical model is built, it can be updated based on physical model changes.
