Risk Documentation

Risk Matrix stores coordinated information in the Revit model so Risk Faces can be represented consistently in project documentation.

The current workflow uses wall parameters, Risk Face tags, Risk View graphics and project cladding information.


Risk Face Parameters

When walls are processed, Risk Matrix writes information to the wall elements, including the Risk Face assignment and the applicable Risk Matrix values.

This allows the information to be used by Revit schedules, tags and other parameter-driven documentation already configured in the project.

Risk Matrix does not currently provide a separate completed-results grid that replaces Revit documentation.


Risk Face Tags

Risk Matrix automatically uses:

ADa_TAG_Wall_Risk : Risk Face label

A tag is placed on a representative wall for a Risk Face in the current view where possible.

Risk Matrix checks for an existing Risk Matrix tag for the face before creating another one.

Tags are also managed when faces are copied or reset.


Risk View Colours

Processed walls receive view-specific graphical overrides.

Each Risk Face number is assigned a distinct colour together with consistent projection line graphics.

These overrides are intended to make the Risk Faces easy to distinguish while reviewing and documenting the building envelope.

The colour represents the Risk Face

The colour identifies the Risk Face number.

It does not represent the calculated E2 risk score.


Matching Wall-End Graphics

At wall junctions, the visible end of another wall may interrupt the coloured face.

Use:

Match Wall End

to apply the source Risk Face graphics to the target wall in the current view.

This is a documentation/presentation adjustment only. The target wall is not assigned to the source Risk Face and its Risk Matrix parameters are not changed.


Cladding Documentation

Risk Matrix coordinates processed wall cladding information into a project legend containing up to four slots:

  • RM - Cladding 1
  • RM - Cladding 2
  • RM - Cladding 3
  • RM - Cladding 4

Distinct cladding descriptions are normalised into these slots and unused slots are set to:

N/A

The associated wall Cladding Category identifies which project slot applies to that wall.

This provides coordinated model information that can be consumed by project documentation.

Maximum four cladding types

The current Risk Matrix cladding workflow supports up to four unique cladding descriptions across processed walls.


Risk Views

Risk Matrix recognises section/elevation views whose names begin with:

RISK-

The default Risk View is:

RISK-01-Elevation

Use Previous View and Next View to move through the available Risk Views in name order.

The Risk Face graphics and tags are view-based, so review the relevant Risk Views as part of the documentation check.


Resetting Documentation

Resetting an individual Risk Face removes its Risk Matrix wall information, relevant Risk Face graphics and tags before the remaining faces are renumbered.

Reset Risk Matrix performs a project-wide cleanup of Risk Matrix wall/project parameters, Risk Face graphical overrides, Risk Matrix tags and face-numbering state.

Reset Risk Matrix is a broad reset

Use the individual face-reset workflow where possible when correcting a local issue.

Use Reset Risk Matrix when the Risk Matrix information needs to be cleared across the project.


Risk Schedules and Final Scores

The current implementation prepares parameter-driven Risk Matrix information that can be used by Revit documentation.

Automated per-face E2 scoring and a dedicated completed-results review interface are not yet part of the current Risk Matrix tool.
