Why Revit Rooms Don't Delete From Your Model

Ever wonder why a Revit room element does not delete from the model when you tell Revit to delete it? I created a short YouTube video explaining why this is the case... which relates to the bigger picture use case for Rooms in the design of buildings.

New YouTube Videos - Early Energy Modeling Course

I've added three new videos to the Early Energy Modeling series on YouTube.

See the new videos, and the entire series, via this YouTube Playlist link: https://bit.ly/3O9ZtuK

The new videos were created using Revit 2024 and recorded in 4k.

Internal Loads

Learn how to manage light power density, latent/sensible heat per person, set points, ACH, schedules, & more.  https://youtu.be/n0oG3bkti3E

FYI: I will create another video soon showing how internal loads can be defined on a space-by-space basis.

Building Evenlope Settings

Learn how to apply and manage the building envelope's thermal resistance and thermal mass properties. This demonstration looks at both a Revit model and a Revit mass and the various ways these properties are applied to the energy analysis model. https://youtu.be/HMUwTRD8w54

Defining Glazing

This video shows how glazing can be defined very accurately... including custom SHGC, VLT, and U values. https://youtu.be/ARijTvuOw7E

I plan on doing another video looking specifically at glazing.
