What's going on, guys?

Balkan Architect here, and in today's video, we're going to be talking about a topic that you have requested quite a lot lately,

and that is plumbing for a simple bathroom.

So that's what I'm going to be doing in this video.

I'm going to be showing you how to set up the plumbing just for a simple bathroom,

how to connect everything up and just make everything work.

Now, if you want to learn more about plumbing in Revit,

I have actually created quite a complex course that covers pretty much everything that you need to know about plumbing in Revit.

It's available on my website, balkanarchitect .com, and it's going to be the first link just below the video in the description.

So make sure to check it out if you want to learn plumbing in depth, step by step, all of the tools explained slowly.

So if you're interested to check that out.

Also, before we start, make sure to like this video.

It helps me out a lot, and it helps share the video to other users that might want to see it.

And finally, make sure to subscribe because I make useful Revit tutorials each week and it makes sense not to miss them.

So make sure to subscribe.

Anyways, without any further ado, let's get straight into Revit.

And here we are in Revit.

So let's get started by going here to models, then going to new.

And for the template file, I'm actually going to go with my architecture design template.

Now, I know what you might be thinking doesn't

it make more sense to go with some sort of a plumbing template

and yes it does

but before we can go to plumbing we have to create an architecture model that's going to include our bathroom

and all the fixtures in that bathroom

and then we can connect those with our plumbing systems

so i'm just going to use my architecture design template now

if you're interested in checking out my templates

you can find them both on my website balkanarctic .com that's going to be the third link in the description

so check that out if you're interested anyways let's just click okay

and let's let revit start right up

so as soon as revit starts up i'm simply going to go here into the level one floor plan

and let's just create a simple room for our bathroom so i'm simply going to go here to the wall tool,

and I'm going to choose this interior bearing wall just because it has a little bit of thickness to that.

I'm going to go to the rectangle tool, and then let's create a simple rectangle like so.

Also, it makes sense to add some sort of a floor.

So let's go to the floor tool, and then here for the floor type, I'm just going to use the interior tile floor,

and I'm going to use the rectangle tool again

and create a simple rectangle like so hit finish and as you can see we have those nice tiles

okay now it's time to start inserting some plumbing fixtures

now for the plumbing fixtures what I'm going to be using is going to be the BIM project plugin

that well it's a cloud -based library where you can access families straight from the manufacturers these are really nice quality families.

And the reason why I especially like them is because they do include all of the necessary connectors for the plumbing families.

Now, don't worry, if you don't know what connectors are, you are going to learn in this video.

But this is something that's quite important for setting up the plumbing.

And these plumbing families that we have here actually all have those important connectors.

Now, if you're interested in getting this plugin and having access to all of these families,

it's completely free, and I'm just going to be leaving a link in the description just below the video, so check it out if you're interested.

There's quite a bit of nice families to find.

Anyways, I'm going to go straight here to showers.

Let's start off with a simple shower.

Let's see, this one looks kind of nice and elegant.

So here you have the option to request properties and play around with the dimensions.

I'm very happy with this one, so I'm just going to select that one and go to add to project.

Now, as soon as I click that, we have the option to create this family or to load this family.

Now, only modification that I'm going to be making is going to be here to perhaps shorten the name a little bit.

I'm annoyed when they have a long name

so that's what i'm going to change and then here you can choose

which parameters you want to include and which you don't want to include

so uh if you

if you want to kind of uh not have some uh parameters loaded in at this stage

you can just check them off

and then obviously at any point later on you can add them back in anyways

i'm just going to click continue

and that's going to add this shower stall to my project

so we just have to wait for a few seconds for that family to load and to be Well,

download it from the cloud and load it into our Revit project.

Now, here it is.

I'm just going to hit the space key and place it here in this corner.

Click just like that.

Hit the escape a couple of times.

And then here below, I'm just going to change the detail level to fine.

And now we can see there we go.

We have the shower stall.

And remember that I said that connectors are important.

These are the connectors.

See, it says create pipe.

So it has the ability to attach a 15 millimeter pipe, a sanitary pipe, and that's why these families are so important.

Okay, let's move forward.

I want to add some more elements.

So the next one is going to be the wash basin.

So let's see.

Let's search for something that's going to look nice.

Perhaps I'm going to use not that one, but this one seems elegant enough off

so let's go to add to project again it's going to give us all the parameters

that are available you can check them on or off as you will

or as you wish

and let's let it load in as well

it's really good to have kind of access to this library

even though the families aren't loaded in you can just load them in real quickly

so I'm just going to place that here

and yeah let's just place it like so escape a couple of times

and then also make sure to select it

and give it a proper elevation

so i'm just going to place it at 90 centimeters

and i do suggest

you always go to the default 3d view just to double check what everything looks like in 3d

because sometimes it might look good in a floor plan

but then when you go to 3d it looks well off uh also for this uh now

for this sink you can see

100

that here we have a pipe for the sanitary pipe a 50 millimeter out

101

but we do have to have some sort of vein in for the faucet both cold

102

and hot water so we have to include the faucet as well

103

so let me go back here find faucets

104

and as you can see we have many different choices i'm just going to go with something quite simple

105

and elegant i like this one at the project so let's add

106

that one in as well okay here you can see the faucet

107

now i'm just going to place it like this on the ground

108

and then let me select it and give it

109

that 90 centimeter offset

110

and then we can just go to the floor plan view to set it up in the correct place

111

and here you can see that we have that cold

112

and hot water in so that's why the faucet was

113

so important also moving forward let's add the toilet

114

so i'm going to add this one just include

115

that one in the project as well

116

and here i'm going to place it on this wall just like

117

so select it and then for the elevation

118

or the offset i'm going to add 40 centimeters and if i go to the 3d view

119

yeah this is what that looks like

120

and also as you can see it has the 100 millimeter out

121

and a 15 millimeter in for those connectors so that's important as well

122

and finally for the shower

123

we need some sort of a in for the shower some sort of a connector there

124

so for that I'm going to go here to shower systems

125

and I'm going to choose one of these for example this one add to project

126

and let's continue and add that one as well

127

and once it's loaded in let's place

128

it here let's give it an elevation of let's go with 90 as well

129

and then finally here in level one we should probably attach

130

it to the wall again go to the 3d view just to double check here in level one

131

I think it's a little bit oops I think it's a little bit off

132

so I'm going to try to kind of attach it there just to make it centered

133

and there we go

134

so for this one again we have the ins we have the out for the shower so now

135

that our bathroom is pretty much complete i'm just going to make it a little bit shorter like

136

so go into a level one and perhaps let's add a door there

137

that would be nice

138

so let's add just a simple door here i'm going to go with an 80 centimeter door just like so.

139

So there we go.

140

Our little bathroom is now completed and now we can start playing around with plumbing.

141

And now it's time to model the actual plumbing.

142

So what I'm going to do is go here to models and then go to you.

143

And in this case, I'm just going to be using the default plumbing template

144

that comes with Revit just because it has some of the settings and the piping and routing preferences and all of that,

145

which is quite useful to get started.

146

And I talk a lot more about this in the actual plumbing course.

147

Now we have to load in our architectural model.

148

So you want to go here to the insert tab

149

and then you want to go to a link Revit and I have it here on my desktop.

150

Here we have the bathroom for plumbing.

151

I'm just going to hit open.

152

It's going to open that up.

153

Now here you'll notice that only the plumbing fixture will appear with regular dark black lines.

154

Everything else will be grayed out.

155

Now, a problem that we do have here is if we want to select one of these items, we have to use the tab key first.

156

And then even when we select, remember those connectors that I was showing you?

157

Well, they don't appear here.

158

The reason for that is this is still part of the linked model, so it doesn't appear.

159

But what you can do to kind of override

160

that is just come in here and select all of these plumbing items that we need.

161

So I'm just going to hover over the water closet here, right -click, or sorry, use the tab key to highlight it,

162

hold the control key to add the selection, and just repeat that process for the rest of these items.

163

Don't forget the faucet because it's important as well.

164

Now, once you select all of these, what you want to do next is go to the clipboard, copy that to clipboard, go to paste,

165

and then just align it at the same place.

166

Click okay.

167

And now, once it's done, if I select the sync here, you will see that now we have that connector,

168

and that's exactly what we want to see.

169

Okay, now it's time to, well, actually get started connecting everything.

170

So I like to do the plumbing first and then the sanitary system later.

171

So let me select first the faucet here, go to the hot water, for example.

172

And then if I want to pull it out like this, and if I click, it's going to say that it cannot be done.

173

Now, the reason for that is because this particular faucet wants that to be connected below.

174

So it wants a vertical pipe.

175

So what you want to do is just go here to the middle elevation

176

and set it to something lower like 800 millimeters.

177

And now when it goes down, it can be done.

178

Now we want to go into the wall a little bit, perhaps like that.

179

And then I'm just going to go off to the side here, just like so.

180

Now, once we have that, I want to connect my shower to that same hot water pipe.

181

So for that, that, what we can do is go here to the floor plan view, select that shower, let's see,

182

there we go, go to the hot water.

183

And if I just connect it like this, it's immediately going to create that solution.

184

See how it kind of added all of the elements there.

185

And now if I go perhaps here to find level of detail, now, as you can see, it's showing everything that it requires.

186

now if these pipes are a bit thin you can always go here

187

and change the diameter so

188

if I see this pipe is 25 I can perhaps set

189

this pipe to 25 as well now as you can see it connects properly

190

and then we can use a thin pipe for this one okay moving forward let's do the second one

191

so the cold water one again let's change the middle elevation

192

to something like let's go to 700 for this one again

193

go out a little bit a little bit less like so and then go off to here just like so

194

there we go i like doing things in 3d

195

because well revit has that power and i think it's useful to utilize utilize

196

that because well all of this plumbing is a lot easier to understand when you're working in 3D.

197

Anyways, let us go back now into the floor plan view.

198

Again, select the shower column, go here to the cold water in, and then just connect here.

199

And again, it's just going to do the same thing.

200

Again, we have a problem where this is thicker than this pipe here.

201

So let's just make this one bigger, just like so.

202

Perfect.

203

And then it just continues off.

204

Now here, we want to connect the water closet as well.

205

Also, for that, perhaps it makes sense to go again to the floor plan view, go to the in.

206

Oops.

207

Let's see.

208

Let's try that again.

209

Okay.

210

Yeah, we want the cold water connector.

211

There we go.

212

Connect.

213

And this is what that does.

214

So it connects it like this.

215

Now here, I think, again, this is thicker.

216

Yeah, this one's 15.

217

So we can increase this to 15. So there we go.

218

So the pipe goes from 25 to 15 and then finally to 10.

219

That's probably what it would look like in real life.

220

Okay, so we've managed to get the water to our fixtures.

221

Now it's time to take the water away by adding the sanitary system.

222

So I like to start off with the water closet.

223

So let's go here to the out.

224

And then really important here, you want to go to the piping and go to slope down.

225

So make sure that the pipes slope down.

226

I'm going to use the slope of two degrees.

227

And then go into the wall, obviously.

228

And then we can just go down a little bit.

229

So let's go to the middle elevation here and set this to minus 100.

230

Like so.

231

And then go all the way out.

232

Perfect.

233

See?

234

Okay.

235

Now let's connect the shower.

236

So the shower we can connect.

237

What I like to do is I like to see where that shower is.

238

So, for example, if I go here to this should be, let's see.

239

Okay, that should be this elevation.

240

Okay, zoom in and then you see the pipe here.

241

So I like to go to the measure tool and measure from the center of the shower. Is this the shower?

242

No. Okay, so from the center of the shower to here.

243

So that's 120 millimeters.

244

So what I'm going to do is go here to the 3D view or no, let's go to the floor plan view,

245

select the shower, and then we have this out and then let's go down to minus 110 perhaps.

246

And then you want to connect it.

247

Now, if it doesn't connect immediately, the problem is we don't see it.

248

Okay, it did connect.

249

There we go.

250

Perfect.

251

But it kind of went through.

252

We don't want that.

253

So let's go one step back let's see

254

so the problem is we cannot really see this pipe in the floor plan view

255

so in order to avoid

256

that we want to see it what we need to do is go here to the properties panel

257

and then go to view range go to edit

258

and just set it to unlimited at the bottom

259

and also at the view depth apply okay

260

and also let's switch this to find a level of detail there we go

261

and now finally when we select the shower we go to out again we set

262

that to minus let's go minus 110 and then we just attach it like

263

so perfect go to the 3d view this is what

264

that looks like see that's why we've measured

265

so we we can attach it at the similar elevation that's what we want it was 120

266

but we went to 110 just to give it a little bit more room for slope here

267

and then finally you want to attach this as well

268

so what I'm going to do is just select this pipe

269

and extend it up and it's just going to continue

270

that slope now a problem that arises here is the fact

271

that this now goes kind of like a bend

272

and it shouldn't be a bend it should be a t

273

so you just delete that and then you just extend this down

274

and you solve that problem

275

so for planning in Revit you'll see there is a lot of this little back

276

and forth to kind of connect everything

277

but in the end everything works out finally let's go to this out

278

we can go to the floor plan view go to that out

279

the middle elevation is 700 here so let's bring

280

that down to four oops not 4000 but 400 there we go

281

and then you can just go out like

282

that hit the escape a couple of times

283

and then what I like to do is go to the Modify tab and simply use

284

Trim and Extend to connect these two.

285

And this is what we get in the end.

286

Now, obviously, this isn't going to work for each bathroom, and you're probably going to have some rules, regulations, preferences, and so on.

287

And that's why I created that course where I can go in depth

288

for hours and explain all of the possibilities and all of the methods

289

that you can use in order to well get everything not only to work

290

but to correspond to your regulation and also to kind of work with the design

291

but this was kind of a quick demonstration of how to

292

connect all the items on a simple bathroom such as we have over here

293

so i hope you have enjoyed this video i hope

294

you have learned something new as i said please check out the course

295

it will be the first link in the description uh check out my patreon page

296

that will be the second link in the description and also

297

if you want to check out the bim project dot cloud check

298

that out as well it's a free plugin it allows you to use all these useful families

299

so that link will be included in the description as well okay so without any thing else to do.

300

Thank you for watching.

301

Make sure to comment, like, and share this video.

302

Make sure to subscribe, and I'll be back with another Balkan Architect tutorial in a couple of days.

303

Thank you for watching, and have a nice day.

Come esercitarsi con questo video

Ascolta tutto il video una volta senza parlare e annota le parole che non conosci.
Inizia a velocità 0,75×, fai shadowing frase per frase e torna alla velocità normale quando diventa facile.
Registrati e confronta con l’originale, facendo attenzione a parole come plumbing, connect, pipe.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
