Adding openings

- In this movie we're gonna look at…some of the opening objects…that are available to us in Revit.…An opening object is a void object or a negative object…and it actually cuts away from…the solid objects that we have.…So we can use voids to cut…holes in other objects for a variety of purposes.…Now if you look at the Architecture tab…on the opening panel, there are actually five…different types of openings that we create.…Now we won't go through all five of them.…I'm gonna focus on just two in this movie.…I'm gonna look at the shaft opening and the dormer opening.…

But you're welcome to experiment with the others as well.…So for the first example, the shaft example,…I'm looking at a section…through a three-story building here.…And I'm gonna zoom in slightly,…right here around the elevator shaft.…Now you can see I have an elevator object here.…And at the moment, we've got a floor here,…and we've got a floor here,…and another one down here.…And they're going right through the elevator shaft.…So it'd make it very difficult…
