Revit :: Adding Posts To Handrail System

Jun 12, 2013

I created a new family to use as posts in my handrail system.  This is for a deck railing.  I'm working on creating a model of the building as it currently stands so I'm able to include a picture of what it actually looks like in real life. 
 
I've also included a screenshot showing the properties window for the handrail (showing what balusters are available) next to the project browswer (showing what families I've got loaded in the file).
 
In the project browser, I've marked with a red arrow the family that I want to use in my handrail.  The ones marked in green are actually listed in the handrail properties window.  So how can I make the Dek Rail Post available to my handrail?
 
I've also included the post family as an attachment.

Revit :: Stair Handrail Post Doesn't Connect To Stringer

Feb 4, 2014

I currently have a situation in white my stair handrail mid post wont connect to my stair stringer. I have a C10 stair stringer and am using a modified typer square handrail system I have made. I am sure there is a setting or preference I have missed that is causing this. I have attached an image for reference.
 
ALSO in the image you can see the top rail does not fully attach to the end post. It sits in the middle somehow. AND that end post sits halfway off the stringer.

Revit :: Beam System Tagging

Nov 18, 2013

I am creating a beam system.  I click the "beam system" button on the structure panel.  However, it then goes into sketch mode without stopping to allow me to select "automatic beam system" and/or "Tag on Placement."  Fortunately, I can see that "automatic beam system" is already selected in the split second that flashes before going to sketch mode. 

However, I do not have the opportunity to select the "Tag on Placement."  I am really new to Revit and thus I am wondering if there is a different way to possibly turn on the tagging since the way I know is not an option.

Revit :: How To Delete English System Families

Jul 30, 2013

how to get rid of English system families in country specific project template? The problem is that originaly that project template was made in English version of Revit with English template.

Revit :: Beam System Doesn't Update With Roof

Apr 14, 2013

I try to 'lock' a beam system that I have used for rafters to the underside of my roof.I've successfully got the walls and gables linked in with the roof, and have set up reference planes for cutting of rafters (that should - I think - mean that rafters can move slightly - or change pitch, whilst maintaining same cut extents at rafter ends).
 
Trouble is - the rafter Beam System does not update with the roof.
 
My creation approach for the Beam System was to select the underside of the roof as the 'Working Plane' - then edit the boundary to project beyond the walls and form the overhang. I projected it further than I required to provide the excess needed in case I wanted to push the cut plane outwards.
 
I assumed that selecting the underside of the roof as the working plane would 'lock' the two together, but it doesn't appear to work.Have I missed a straightforward step to link the two elements together ?

Revit :: How To Change Type Of Curtain Wall System

Oct 6, 2011

I am having a problem with creating a curtain wall system. After selecting my mass surfaces and choosing "create system" I am unable to change the type of curtain wall system. It just comes up with a regular grid system on the mass, where as before I was able to choose triangles, rhomboids etc under the properties tab. Now however I see nothing except for the current curtain system and recently used files.

I have also created a custom panel which I want to insert into my project but am unable to do so? I have tried loading it into the project, however because of the above problem I am not able to change it to my custom panel system.

Revit :: Adding Pop Up Window To A Formula?

Oct 3, 2013

We have a family that errors when certain values are hit. Its realated to Automatic Sketch Dimension reassociating with work planes when two workplans over lap... Anyway, the QA team knows about this.
 
The problem I have is that I have an IF statement to trigger an generic error message when these two rare conditions are met. I would rather a pop up window explaining what thy can not do. "Position of legs from ends can not equal half total length" and an OK button.
 
Is there a "say" style command for revit formulas?

Revit :: Adding A Truss In Building

Sometimes I'm unable to place a truss in my building. When I am able to get it in, it's never at the right height (either too high or too low). I've tried moving it in an elevation and section, but it will only move left and right, not up and down. My teacher said something about changing the view range, which I did.

Revit :: Adding A Piece Of Floor?

Jun 12, 2013

If you already have your main floor created in a Revit LT model and you later decide you'd loke to add a small addition to that same floor, not as an addition, but simply as a revised floor plan that expands the previous area, can you just draw another floor area and will that blend into the 1st main floor?  Or do you have to redraw the whole floor?  Or join the 2 pieces?

When creating custom materials and utilizing them within your Revit project, are the image files embedded within the RVT file and thereby increasing file size?  I was needing to know before we load down the project file (.rvt) with many custom materials. Hopefully it is just a pointer to a separate material file.
