Robel Z.
Architect - Specializing in Revit BIM Modelling
Do you have a design sketch or a CAD file that needs to be transformed into a professional, data-rich Revit model, with detailed working drawings? Robel from Ethiopia here. I specialize in converting PDFs, AutoCAD (DWG) files, and hand-drawn sketches into fully realized BIM models and comprehensive Working Drawings. With over 3 years of experience working with the international architectural firm ZIAS A+E and architectural education from both Ethiopia and the University of Missouri (USA), I offer high-level technical communication and rigorous detailing. I understand that a Revit model is more than just 3D geometry—it requires strict adherence to standards, correct family usage, and precise detailing to be useful for construction. I am comfortable navigating different building codes IBC & IRC (Building & Residential Codes), ADA (Accessibility/Handicap Standards), and NFPA 101 (Life Safety). I am eager to collaborate in English, and work seamlessly in both Imperial and Metric units. What I Bring to Your Project: ✔ Precision Conversion: I don't just "trace" lines; I interpret your design intent to create accurate parametric models. ✔ International Standards: Accustomed to high-pressure environments, I follow strict BIM execution plans and naming conventions (ISO 19650 awareness). ✔ Full Documentation: I can take a model from a concept mass to a full set of Working Drawings (Plans, Sections, Elevations, Details, and Schedules), including Interior documentation. ✔Revit Mastery: Proficiency in creating custom parametric families, managing phases, and handling worksets for collaboration. My Workflow: 1. Review: I analyze your source files (PDF/CAD/Sketch) to understand the scope. 2. Model: I build the BIM model (LOD 300-400), ensuring clean wall joins and accurate levels. We can go further with Keynotes, Phasing, Schedules, Takeoff, and even code analysis drawings. 3. Document: I generate the sheet sets and annotate them for construction/permitting. 4. Deliver: You receive the .RVT, Sketchup, or any format 3d file with polished PDFs. Why Work With Me? I treat every model as if it were being built tomorrow—ensuring clean joins, accurate data, and code compliance. I am currently freelancing to fund my upcoming architectural graduate studies, so I am highly motivated to deliver 5-star work and build long-term client relationships.
