Design memo of 300 to 400 words: what survived the handoff, what you rebuilt, what assembly choices you made and why, and where Revit and Forma disagreed.
When transferring the design from forma to revit, most of the elements remained the same. I was expecting revit to give back errors about the design, or to just have more issues moving from one software to another, but it was a very smooth process. I had to rebuild the stair cases and insert the interior doors - this is something that I had not done yet in forma, but it was very quick to do it in revit. I was not expecting revit to recognize the forma components of the building - for example, when I would click on a door, revit would recognize that it came from forma. This was true for all of the building components. It makes sense that those are the baseline ones that we used and that we are now going through and changing them to be the revit materials and components. The ones in revit seem to be much more customizable and they can be changed easily which is helpful when performing different building analyses to see what options work the best. The two wall assemblies that I used were very similar to one another. The difference between the wall assemblies I used was subtle and it did not significantly impact the carbon values. I increased the siding thickness from ¾” to 1” and I increased the structural softwood lumber layer from 5” to 6”. By making these changes, the R-value increased from about 39 to about 48. Based on this, I thought there would have been a bigger change in the carbon. The other layers used for the wall were 0.5” of plywood, a vapor retardant, and a 0.5” gypsum wall board. The green roof I used had a 2” grass layer, 4” Earth layer, 2” insulation layer, water membrane layer, and a 9” concrete precast layer which resulted in an R value of about 39.
