Opening requirements are of the Category, Audio Visual Devices.
When working with opening requirements there is a vast amount of requirements per project.
Open Quick Opening Settings to define up to six different requirements which will appear on the six buttons.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Free text any requirement and save. These values are saved per user per computer.
It's possible to the values at any point.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The text for each button is now updated.
It's recommended to connect each requirement to a keyboard shortcut. Note: Restart Revit to have the text from the requirement to be updated in the keyboard shortcut list. Otherwise, it will still be Quick 1-6 from the start
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Tool itself only lets the users select openings, categories Windows and Doors.
For Windows, it will appear a blue text with a border around it.
For Doors, it will appear a blue text, without a border around it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Both opening requirement symbols have three sizes, they are named
- 1_L (Large)
- 1_M (Medium
- 1_S (Small)
In short it is three different text sizes
- 1_L (2mm)
- 1_M (1.5mm)
- 1_S (1mm)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Door requirements have four requirement parameters.
- AcousticReq_AcousticRatingDoors where the text from Opening Requirement will be pasted. It’s possible to manually enter this data as well or change an existing value.
- AcousticRatingReq = AcousticReq_AcousticRatingDoors, this is the parameter from BuildingSmart.
- AcousticReq_Comment is a multi-text parameter. It’s possible to write any extra information on this parameter which would be useful for the other stakeholders.
- AcousticReq_DoorSweep, if the door requires a door sweep to fulfill the acoustic rating.
BFT_GUID is a parameter, showing the user that this specific requirement is connected to a component in the linked model
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Window Requirement have four different Acoustic Requirement parameters
- AcousticReq_AcousticRatingWindow where the text from Opening Requirement will be pasted. It’s possible to manually enter this data as well or change an existing value.
- AcousticRatingReq = AcousticReq_AcousticRatingWindow, this is the parameter from BuildingSmart
- AcousticReq_FixedWindowAcousticRating, if the user wants to send two suggestions to the other stakeholders, R’w XX dB if it is a window that opens or R’w YY dB if it’s a fixed window.
- AcousticReq_Comment is a multi-text parameter. It’s possible to write any extra information on this parameter which would be useful for the other stakeholders.
BFT_GUID is a parameter, showing the user that this specific requirement is connected to a component in the linked model
