Automação de análises de projeto no Autodesk Revit

Abstract

The world's new technologies and innovations are emerging faster and faster. Terms such as automation and artificial intelligence become part of professionals' daily lives from all sectors of the economy. For professionals in the construction sector, software that uses the BIM (Building Information Modeling) methodology represent paradigm shifts from traditional project creation processes. In this context of constant innovation and adaptation to digital tools, skills related to computer programming are increasingly indispensable. Thus, this work focuses on exploring the idea of parametric modelling, brought by the BIM methodology, combined with the creative power of a programming language. Therefore, it demonstrates how to extend Autodesk Revit functionality using its Application Programming Interface (API) associated with a programming interface in the Python. The objective here is to automate analyzes of a 3D model of a building according to the guidelines of ADASA's Resolution Number 09 of April 08, 2011, which deals with the release of rainwater into water bodies in the Federal District. Finally, this work was able to demonstrate the benefits arising from the combination of technical knowledge of the construction sector with computer programming, allowing greater agility and time saving with the automation of guidelines and calculations of a technical document.
