Revit :: How To Bridge The Gap At Intersection Of Two Walls

Sep 27, 2012

How to bridge the gap at the intersection of two types of wall. I’m wondering which “function” settings are required such that the intersection between two types of all walls (30 cm and 10cm) produce solid line.

Revit :: Three Wall Intersection With Odd Join?

Dec 4, 2013

I have 2 corners between 3 walls, one of which is of an odd construction.  I want the outer layers of the two side walls to meet as they do when trimmed to each other but this creates a bit of angled wall inside the room on the upper left.  I want that corner to look like the left and top walls are trimmed.  The two corners are too far apart for wall join to clean the whole intersection and I can't really move any of these walls.
 
Here's a video of trimming the walls.

Revit :: Display Wall Center Line In Walls?

Jan 8, 2013

We r used to have a center line for each separate wall not just for dimension or placing but even visible after plotting and in each view including section , whether it is a structural or partition wall or ... etc ,  I am new to revit and i fell in love with the software right away, how to display wall center line in views , the only way i found out how to do it is either by drawing model lines or grid lines which will be so dreadful and time consuming if u have 1250 walls in the project .  doing it automatically perhaps to be a part of the wall proprieties

Revit :: Exporting Curtain Wall With Panels As Walls

Feb 16, 2012

I am trying to export my floor plan to dwg file and I have curtain wall there which have panels as regular wall types. The problem is that exporting it will put those panels on the wall layer. I need them to be on curtain wall panel layer. I tried to use "Function" parameter in wall family by changing certain wall types to Retaining (since I don't use this parameter) and changed Wall/Retaining category layer to curtain panel in dwg export setup. But it seems it has no effect.I also noticed that walls inserted as panels into curtain wall do have a parameter under "Identity Data" with the name "Categorize as" where are two values - wall or panel. But this does not have any effect either since there is no category for it in export setup.

Revit :: Trimming Wall To Roof / Making Horizontal Holes In Walls Created From Mass Face?

Dec 29, 2011

I would like to know whether it is possible (and how) to trim a wall that was generated from mass face to a roof (also generated from face mass) or/and make a horizontal hole in it. The wall itself is not straight or curved, it shifts outwards from the building from base to top (still in an elevation it looks like rectangle).

Revit :: How To Get Wall Sweep Set Up In Type / Structure Properties To Wall Profile Has Changed

Apr 12, 2012

Any way to get a wall sweep that's set up in the type/structure properties to follow a wall if that walls profile has changed.  For example, in the image below, I've split the wall and adjusted it's profile to create some cheesy angled parapet.  How do i get my wall cap to follow along?  I thought splitting it and changing it's height would work, but no.  And if I change the profile without splitting the wall the wall cap just runs right through the wall, as if the profiel was never even changed.

Revit :: Bulkhead Wall Join Skews Bottom Of Existing Wall

Jul 25, 2013

I have to draw a bulkhead wall that connects to a full height wall and a gyp bd ceiling.  This causes the entire end of the full height wall to skew in line with the butt joint above the ceiling level.  I tried Wall Joins but all the options screw up the bottom half of the wall which needs to remain in line with the paired opposite.  I also tried editing the sketch of the wall profile but Revit couldn't keep the elements joined.  I tried trimming the two walls back together afterwards but the wall profile dominates and prevents a clean join above the ceiling.
 
Surely there's a way to have different kinds of joins at different heights?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Walls Only Display Standard Wall Type?

Oct 24, 2013

I'm trying to make walls that are not just the Standard type (Brick -4 Brick -4 Furring for example) but when I make a wall of this type, it displays as a simple rectangle, instead of with the unique hatch patterns of that wall type...In the properties palette, the wall type is Standard, even though I've chosen a more specific wall type.  How do I make walls that aren't Standard?

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Apply Textures Of Individual Walls To Wall Faces

Jul 23, 2013

I cannot seem to find out when and where it's ocuring. I took measurements of a large room and modeled it in Autocad 2014. The solids I used are rather simple, mostly just boxes with some boolean unions and substractions here and there. I then took pictures of every wall, perspective-corrected them, imported each of them to Autocad as material, assigned the real size to the picture material and applied those materials to the corresponding wall faces. Planar mapping proved to be adequate in all cases and mostly mapped correctly on the first go.

The project was completed and saved. To my horror most of the material mappings had just gone the next time I opened the project. It was just as if I had never applied any material mapping or texture to the faces.

After partially appliying the damned material mappings and materials (textures) again I tried to determine under what circumstances the mappings get lost. Its not allways the same walls. The bug seems to occur randomly on various geometry and at various times. Sometimes the mappings get lost after opening the project, sometimes the get lost on the fly when isolating (hiding) geometry. There is no way I can get the room to look as I want it to look as there will allways be some wall that has become default-grey again, randomly (either while working or after opening up the project again).

I really expect Autocad to be rock solid after so many program versions. Did I do something wrong? How would you go about applying textures of inividual walls to wall-faces? Or is Autocad just crap regarding heavy use of textures because that is not the average use-case?

Revit :: Changing Length Of A Wall And Wall Type?

When I try to change the length of a wall it grows at both end.  How to grow at one end only?
 
When I change the wall type to one with a different thickness, I cannot control which face of the wall remains fixed and which face moves.  eg: change from 130mm to 250mm screws up my room width.  How do I do this?

Revit :: Arched Hole In Wall And Wall Height

Apr 16, 2013

I am trying to make a floorplan of my house in Revit 2013, but I am having an issue when it comes to one wall in my house. I have an opening in the Master Bedroom that leads to the bathroom. This wall has a weird arched-like opening in it and I have no clue how to make this in Revit. I have attached a sketch.
 
Also, my exterior walls are 7' tall but the interior walls start at 7' and go up to 8' once in the middle of the house and reduce back to 7". How does one set that up in Revit?
 
EDIT: May have made the image too small to see, but the top is not arched, it is actually half of a decagon.

Revit :: Adding Wall Sweeps To Wall Profile?

Jul 29, 2011

I have a question about wall profiles. I want to make a profile on a wall so I can make Zinc Panels on the wall that are 10" X 20". I've attached a picture of what I'm going for. I'd like it to have a 1/2" spacing between them and with a joint depth of 1" and I'd like to do this is the wall type so that I can use this wall in multiple places rather than having it model-in-place. Anyway I have made a profile that is 1" X 10" so that it can become my panel  profile. But when I go to add it to the wall as a wall sweep as I have seen people do I get hung up on how to make it tile up the wall and also I don't understand how to make the profile so that it is 20" wide. I have a screen shot of where I'm editing this too. Below is the link of the site.

Revit :: Nested Family Reference Plane Lock Breaking

Feb 11, 2014

I have developed a family-construction method that combines equipment with its dedicated electrical receptacles.  It is designed such that once inserted, the user can drag the outlet symbol and outlet to the right or left and also move the outlet symbol away from the wall plane to permit symbol stacking in plan.  Most of the time this works but on some families, though seeming constructed in the same manner, the link between the receptacle and the controlling plane gets broken.  The link to the outlet annotation family always stays connected.
 
I've attached a Revit project contain two families, one that works and one that does not.

Revit :: Can't Cut Walls With Voids

Jun 4, 2013

I'm at my wits end trying to cut a wall with a void.  I want to chamfer the corners of a wall, but I can't get even a basic void to cut from a wall.  I get the error : "This Mass has no solid geometry for its Void Forms to cut. They must be deleted, or solid geometry added and cut." They clearly intersect, what am I doing wrong?

Revit :: Joining Walls To Roof

Apr 11, 2013

I am currently doing an MEP project and I am tidying up the model at present. I am having problems attaching the walls to the roofs. There could be a simple solution but I haven't found it yet !

I have tried attaching top base etc. but its not working. I only seem to be able to select one side of the roof when selecting where to attach the walls. I have attached 3d pics showing the walls that are extruding & also one of the walls that I am trying to attach.

Revit :: Internal Walls Disappear

Oct 30, 2013

I drew some internal walls before adding a floor slab. After adding the floor slab the walls disappeared in plan.  I can see them in 3D, in the correct place, but not in plan. 

The floor slab is in the right position. To fix the problem I redrew them all, but why did they disappear and how do I prevent it from happening again?

Revit :: Why Existing Walls Not Plot To PDF

Mar 24, 2013

why my existing walls show up fine in my sheet but don't plot to .pdf. I have the view range settings set correctly and all other sheets plot fine.

I thought maybe the roof transparency was the issue but Revit is usually pretty much a WYSIWYG plotting operation and the walls are displaying in the sheet file. Haven't tried plotting to a plotter but it doesn't matter. I need to plot .pdf's.
