BIM-BASED ARCHITECTURAL PLANNING AND WALKTHROUGH RENDERING OF A MULTIPURPOSE CONVENTION HALL USING REVIT

Abstract

The project “BIM-Based Architectural Planning and Walkthrough Rendering of a Multipurpose Convention Hall Using Revit” focuses on the planning, modeling, visualization, and presentation of a multipurpose convention hall using Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology. A convention hall requires careful planning to accommodate different activities such as conferences, seminars, exhibitions, cultural programs, meetings, and social events. The project aims to develop a functional architectural layout while considering space utilization, circulation, accessibility, natural lighting, ventilation, and user comfort. The architectural design is developed using Autodesk Revit, where the building components are created as an integrated BIM model. The model includes spaces such as the main auditorium, stage, entrance lobby, reception area, meeting rooms, exhibition spaces, service areas, restrooms, circulation spaces, and other supporting facilities. Walls, floors, roofs, doors, windows, stairs, furniture, and other architectural elements are incorporated into the model to represent the proposed convention hall accurately. The project also focuses on three-dimensional visualization and walkthrough rendering to provide a realistic representation of the proposed building. Revit views, materials, lighting, camera perspectives, and walkthrough features are used to examine the interior and exterior spaces. The walkthrough helps evaluate spatial relationships, circulation paths, room arrangements, and the overall appearance of the convention hall before actual construction.
