Until now, Dynamo has been reading from and writing to elements that already exist in your Revit model. Week 5 changes that completely — this is the week Dynamo starts building. You will learn how Dynamo creates brand new Revit elements from scratch, understand what a Revit Family is and how to choose the right type, define positions and levels with Dynamo nodes, place single and multiple elements from lists of points, create walls from geometry, and finish with a complete Create + Set Parameters script that builds five columns and tags each one automatically in a single run. Developed by the AI in BIM team in collaboration with GBH Elite, Week 5 is where Dynamo becomes a true BIM authoring tool!

✅ WHAT'S INCLUDED:

- 5 Comprehensive Video Lessons

- Week 5 Introduction — Recap of Weeks 1–4 + What's Ahead

- How Dynamo Creates Elements — Families, Types, Levels & Points

- Placing Elements from Points — One, Many & Level by Elevation

- Creating Walls from Lines — Wall by Curve & Automated Layouts

- Live Build: Apartment Wall Layout (3 Rooms)

- Create + Set Parameters — the Full Automation Loop

- Live Build: 5 Columns Placed & Tagged Automatically

- *Week 5 Study Guide PDF (Downloadable Reference)*

- *Week 5 Knowledge Exam (Google Form — Element Creation Assessment)*

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

- *Week 5 Review Form (Self-Assessment & Support Request)*

- Lifetime Access to Week 5 Content

- Exclusive WhatsApp Community Support ⭐

✅ KEY BENEFITS:

- Understand the difference between Creating, Reading, and Writing in Dynamo

- Know what a Revit Family is and how to select the right type in a script

- Use Family Types and Levels nodes to control element placement

- Define exact positions in 3D space with Point.ByCoordinates

- Place one element and then scale up to place many from a list of points

- Create new levels programmatically with Level.ByElevation

- Understand why walls need lines and columns need points

- Draw walls with Line.ByStartPointEndPoint and Wall.ByCurveAndHeight

- Automate an entire room layout from a list of wall lines

- Build the Create + Set Parameters loop — place elements and tag them in the same script

- Apply creation skills across Architecture, Mechanical, Electrical & Structural workflows
