Revit :: Concrete Step In Slab Annotation

Oct 25, 2012

I've had a request from on of our users to replicate something that has been done for years in 2D CAD. They want a marker to show changes in floor levels that look something like this:-

The annotation needs to be able to read the slab on either side of the step marker and hopefully if possible the difference be represented as text. The datum levels are secondary and it is really the depth of the step that seems to be more important. I do however want to avoid these being just dumb text as if/when the design evolves someone will forget to modify the text.
 
Here is an example of a few showing two steps in the slab and the results we would want.

I have tried loading/nesting a standard spot level in thinking if I had two in an annotation that this might work, but I was unable to even place a spot marker within the family which makes some sense I suppose.
 
Is this even technically possible...? I realize the origin usually determines what hosts the family and how, but I guess we are looking for something with a double origin, which is why I think this may not be possible...?

Revit :: Create Tilt Up Concrete Panels

Nov 21, 2011

What's the best way to create tilt up concrete panels? In the screen grab bellow, I used an extrusion, gave it concrete material, and left a 10mm gap between each panel to create that illusion.
 
Can this be done as a wall, if so how do I add those gaps/voids?

Revit :: How To Create Irregular Concrete Slab

Apr 1, 2013

I am looking to create an irregular concrete slab, with barrel vaulted ceilings on a small radial section of a circular slab, and a a parabolically curved upper section to the slab, and a large punched hole in the middle of the slab.  To this point, I have been able to achieve this using multiple components and masses, but I was wondering if there was a way to make a single object with a single solid material that may be able to achieve the same effect.  I have attached a section for ease of explanation.

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 :: Beam Not Showing Up Cut Pattern?

Aug 5, 2013

This is quite weird because revit architecture 2013 is showing this error. In order to see beam in my architectural layout, we are changing the cut plane value in the view range. With this step I can see the beam but not the cut pattern of the beam..very weird. Also, one more thing, just to check I copy pasted beam modeled in revit 2011 in revit 2013 and I could see the cut pattern. So is something wrong with 2013 beam revit family?

Revit :: Getting Accurate Beam Placement?

Mar 7, 2012

I've been screwing around with beams in Revit for years and still have issues with the gaps at the connections. There is a shape handle and a structural component end. Either way, the beam decides where it wants to end. If I put two precast beams end to end, resting on an inverted tee girder that needs to have the 9" tee portion extend between the two joists, Revit doesn't like that and does its own thing. I move one, the other follows. I move both far enough away from eachother, then drag one end to where it needs to be, cool, then when I drag the other...boom...they snap together. Yes, I'm aware of the "start and end extension" in the properties window, this is incredibly time consuming and if one of the beams are switched around, I need to remember if this end was the start or end. In addition, the structural component end will go initially where it wants to, so there's no guarantee that if the parameters are correct, the beam/joist will be.
 
Can I remove all "rules" that beams have so I can place these correctly?

Revit :: Monolithic Stair - How To Display Only Concrete In Plan View

Apr 23, 2012

I use all the time L shape and U shape winder stairs in combination with the Monolithic Type.

We use to concrete the monolithic part of the stairs and then dress the stairs with treads and risers. The new tool looks that working very nice.
 
So OK I draw the U shape winder stair and of course i want to construct the stairs.
 
I want to prepape a detail plan view with dimensions only for the Monolithic Part (Concrete) of the stair but i can't find a way to dispay only the monolithic part without Treads and Riser.It is possible in 3d view but no in plan view. The news tool that calculate winder stairs is "half job done" if i can't print with dimension the concrete part of the winder stairs.

Revit :: Build A Wall That Has Concrete Block Pattern Offset By 1/2

Aug 31, 2012

I'm trying to build a wall that has the concrete block pattern that's offset by 1/2.  If I build a wall using mass then I can make it into a pattern that I want but then I can't paint it so that's it's clear or see through.  On the other hand if I build a wall just using the walls then I can't find an option for the block pattern.

Revit :: How To Connect Columns To Pitched Beam

Sep 9, 2013

The beam is continuous.  The connection details are not important.  They're some kind of plate welded to the beam and bolted through the column web. I don't need it to be able to do structural calculations.
 
Join won't select a structural column or beam. Align creates a rotation error because of the beam's pitch. The column height appears to only change by the Level, but again the beam is pitched. Setting the height above the beam breaks the beam.

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 :: Control Fire Rating A Door Must Have Through Yes / No Parameters

Apr 17, 2013

I would like to be able to control the fire rating a door must have through a yes / no parameters. I have created a shared parameter for all the different codes and then I have loaded them into the family, now I just want it to work so that when a rating is checked the name will be in  "Fire Rating".
 
EI0 selected when the door is not fire rated.
 
As can be seen in the picture, I found out how it can be doneif there are 3 checkboxes.

Revit :: How To Create Adaptive Family (concrete Bleacher / Bench) That Mitres To Its Adjoining Instances

Dec 23, 2011

I'm trying to create an adaptive family (a concrete bleacher/bench) that mitres to its adjoining instances when placed in a project (see attached images).

The family is not acting as I intend it to when loaded into the project (bottom right image). I've created six adaptive points which are intended to correspond to refeence points in the project.

I think the problem has to do with the faces of the extrusion, they don't seem to be able to align to an angled reference plane. How the extrusion can expand/contract in a linear fashion and have ends that mitre adaptively?
