Description

Two problems. Both solved this week. The first: your scripts until now have always worked on one floor. Week 9 teaches you how to copy elements across an entire building in a single click — 61 columns on the entry level, three upper floors completely empty, one graph that places 183 copies in one run. The second: since Week 7, Width returned null and nobody explained why. Week 9 explains it fully — Width is a Type parameter, not an Instance parameter. It lives on the family type, not on the individual element. One new node — Element.ElementType — and the null disappears permanently. Developed by the AI in BIM team in collaboration with GBH Elite, Week 9 completes two skills that every professional BIM automation script eventually needs: scale across floors and read every kind of parameter. This is the week your scripts grow from single-floor tools into whole-building automation!

✅ WHAT'S INCLUDED:

- 4 Comprehensive Video Lessons

- Week 9 Introduction — What This Week Solves and Why It Matters

- Part 1: Understanding Levels in Dynamo — All Elements of Category, Level.Elevation, and Filtering

- Part 2: Copy Structural Columns to All Levels — Element.CopyToLevel with Cross Product Live Build (183 Copies)

- Part 3: Type Parameters — Element.ElementType and the Fix for the Width Null

- Week 9 Task: Copy Doors Across Floors (Architecture)

- *Week 9 Study Guide PDF (Downloadable Reference)*

- *Week 9 Knowledge Exam (Google Form — Multi-Floor and Type Parameter Assessment)*

- *Practical Dynamo Script Task (Google Form with Image Upload)*

- *Week 9 Review Form (Self-Assessment & Support Request)*

- Lifetime Access to Week 9 Content

- Exclusive WhatsApp Community Support ⭐

✅ KEY BENEFITS:

- Understand how Dynamo reads and works with project levels

- Use All Elements of Category to collect levels and Level.Elevation to read their heights

- Filter levels precisely — remove the source floor, remove the parapet, target exactly the floors you need

- Master Element.CopyToLevel — the node that copies any element to any level

- Use Cross Product lacing to copy many elements to many levels simultaneously

- Place 183 element copies across three floors in a single script run

- Understand the difference between Instance parameters and Type parameters

- Master Element.ElementType — the one node that unlocks every Type parameter

- Fix the Width null that has been appearing since Week 7 — permanently

- Apply multi-floor copying across Architecture, Structural, Mechanical and Electrical workflows
