Chapter 18: Documenting Your Design
Document plans. Floor plans can create visual graphics that help to define how a space is laid out. However, Revit provides other tools such as area plans to help you describe space.
Master It List the four types of area plans that you can create and note the two that Revit creates automatically.
Solution The four types of area plans are: rentable area, gross area, usable area, and BOMA area. Revit provides automatic calculations to show rentable and gross areas.
Create schedules and legends. Schedules are another view type in Revit; they allow you to show information about the model in a nongraphic format. Schedules can also be used to dynamically report quantities of elements inside the model.
