Reviewing Risk Faces¶
Use Risk Matrix and the Revit Risk Views to review the Risk Faces and model information created by the current workflow.
The current version does not yet provide a completed per-face E2 scoring/results grid.
Review the Risk Views¶
Use Previous View and Next View in Risk Matrix to move through views whose names begin with:
RISK-
Review each elevation and check that the building envelope has been divided into the intended Risk Faces.
Check Face Numbers¶
Each processed face is identified as:
Face 1, Face 2, Face 3 and so on.
A Risk Face can contain several Revit walls where the walls form one coplanar and continuous building face.
Check that:
- walls that should form one face share the same number;
- genuine breaks or changes of plane have separate numbers;
- the numbering sequence is sensible; and
- previously processed faces have not been unintentionally reassigned.
Check Face Colours¶
Each Risk Face is given a distinct colour in the Risk View.
Use the colours to quickly identify which wall segments belong to the same Risk Face.
Colours identify faces, not risk scores
Risk Face colours are graphical identifiers for the face number.
They do not indicate low, medium or high E2 risk and should not be interpreted as a completed risk result.
Check Risk Face Tags¶
Risk Matrix places the tag:
ADa_TAG_Wall_Risk : Risk Face label
on a representative wall for each processed Risk Face where the tag can be created.
Check that each required face has a clear label and that duplicate or obsolete labels have not remained after editing.
Check the Assigned Information¶
Processed walls receive the Risk Matrix values that were active when they were processed.
Where required, review the wall parameters and confirm that the expected information has been applied.
Pay particular attention where different building faces require different values for:
- Number of Storeys;
- Roof / Wall;
- Eave Width;
- Envelope; or
- Deck.
Wind Zone is sourced from the project-wide Project Information → Wind Zone value.
Review Cladding Coordination¶
Open the Cladding tab and review:
Project Cladding Legend¶
Shows up to four cladding descriptions used by processed walls.
Unused slots are shown as N/A.
Wall Type Cladding Mapping¶
Review the cladding description associated with the relevant wall types.
Risk Matrix normalises the processed wall information so that each recognised description is assigned to a coordinated project cladding slot.
The current implementation supports a maximum of four unique cladding types.
Correcting a Face¶
Use the appropriate correction workflow rather than rebuilding the entire Risk Matrix where possible.
Copy Face\ Use when a wall should inherit an existing Risk Face assignment and Risk Matrix/cladding data.
Match Wall End\ Use when only the displayed Risk Face colour needs to continue onto another wall.
Reset selected face\ Use the face-reset workflow when an existing Risk Face needs to be cleared and recreated. Remaining faces are renumbered to close the gap.
Reset Risk Matrix\ Use only when the project-wide Risk Matrix information needs to be cleared.
About Final Risk Results¶
Automated E2 face scoring is not currently part of this Risk Matrix interface.
The present review workflow verifies the Risk Face geometry, numbering, tags, colours, project values and cladding coordination that support the assessment documentation.
Future scoring workflow
A later Risk Matrix development stage is intended to provide face-specific suggested values, user confirmation and calculated risk results.
