Problem
Manual repetitive tasks in Revit consume significant time during the design phase. Architects and engineers spend hours on tasks that could be automated, reducing productivity and increasing the risk of human error.
Approach
Developed a comprehensive Revit plugin using the Revit API and C# that automates common workflows. The plugin integrates seamlessly with Revit's ribbon interface and provides one-click solutions for batch operations.
Key features include:
- Batch parameter updates across multiple elements
- Automated view creation based on templates
- Smart sheet generation with consistent numbering
- Export automation for multiple formats
Technologies
- Revit API 2024
- C# / .NET Framework
- WPF for custom UI
- SQLite for local data caching
Results
- 70% reduction in time spent on repetitive tasks
- Deployed across 15+ workstations in the office
- Zero manual errors in batch operations
- Positive feedback from design team
