these elements. You can use 3D plan views, section views, and views created from callouts as a basis for solar
studies. For more information, see
Project Views
on page 79.
To produce solar studies that accurately represent the position of the sun in relation to the project when
Project North differs from True North, change the view orientation to True North. See
Orienting Views to
True North
on page 1180.
As an alternative, when producing a still solar study, you can specify the sun’s location relative to the view.
See
Still Solar Studies Based on Azimuth and Altitude
on page 1182.
Orienting Views to True North
Drafting conventions dictate that Project North is the top of the view. When producing solar studies, change
the view orientation from Project North to True North to create accurate sunlight and shadow patterns for
the project. (You must be in a 2D plan view to set the view orientation to True North.) After you change the
view orientation to True North, you can rotate the project to True North in the view.
To orient a project to True North
1
In the Project Browser, open a 2D plan view of the project.
2
Click View menu
➤
View Properties.
TIP
You can also right-click in the drawing area, and click View Properties to access the Element
Properties dialog.
3
In the Element Properties dialog, under Graphics, select True North for Orientation, and click
OK.
4
Click Tools menu
➤
Project Position/Orientation
➤
Rotate True North.
5
On the Options Bar, for Angle from Project to True North, enter a value to set the angle of
rotation.
For example, if the difference between Project North and True North is 45 degrees, enter 45.
The project rotates in the view to the specified angle.
NOTE
Settings for project location and orientation, including the angle from True North, are saved
with the project, not the view.
Creating a Solar Study
In Revit Architecture, you can create a solar study as either of the following:
■
An animation, which is a series of frames that show shadow movement over a defined period of time.
■
A still, which is a single frame that shows shadow patterns for a specific date and time.
You save solar study settings under a unique name so that you can view or modify the solar study at a later
time.
To create a solar study
1
In a project, open a 3D view.
2
Customize the view as needed to enhance solar study analysis.
For example, you can use SteeringWheel and ViewCube options to adjust the view. See
