I am trying to model a column to a curved profile as shown in my sketch. I have opened the structural Column family and imported the curve profile i require it to follow om my required work plane and tried to model a sweep but i'm having problems...
 
The Sweep will not follow the line of the profile and the column is offset.
 
Look at the images.

Revit :: Model Curved Wall With A Cornice

Mar 3, 2014

I am working on a building that will have a cornice running along the top of the wall. This is easily handled by a wall sweep. However, at a point along the length of the wall, the wall will have an arch along the top of it. I tried adjusting the profile of the wall, but the parapet (wall sweep) does not conform to the curve of the wall.How would you model a curved wall with a cornice.

Revit :: How To Constrain Curved Ribs On A Curved Roof Line

Jan 26, 2014

Having a time getting ribs to align 2m below top of ridge beam, and connect to curved wall below.  I created one, then arrayed, but the radius changes at each 2.5 degree interval.  I don't think I should have to calculate the % radius change to get the beams to do this.  Some constraint button maybe?
 
Not sure if editing a wall profile is the best way to model this, but it's working.

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 :: How To Do Curved Cut In Curved Wall

May 13, 2013

I am currently working in a facade that has a stylized gondola on it. The gondola has curved walls for the sides, and I need to have the curved cut to give it the shape. The tools I know are for straight walls, not curved. and the Opening/wall makes a squared opening, not curved.

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 :: Can't Put Window In Curved Wall

Mar 6, 2012

I can't put my nested window family in a curved wall. Where the problem could be situated? It has to be a normal straight window so I use my nested window families from other projects. I compared my NWF(nested window family) with the ones autodesk provides with revit but I don't find the difference. The NWF from autodesk work in a curved wall.

Revit :: Curved Glass Balustrade

Oct 7, 2011

I am trying to create a staircase balustrade in glass but which needs to follow the curved edge of the stair. The stair has 3 straight flights with two sections of curved winders.
 
I've tried using a glass balustrade family but this doesn't seem to work as the size of the panels prevent it following the curve. A similar problem exists at the edge of the floor where the balustrade needs to follow the curved edge of the floor. The handrail element of the balustrade works fine.

Revit :: Edit Profile On Curved Wall Is Still Not Possible?

Apr 14, 2011

For a very long time I have missed to able to edit profile on a curved wall. It seems so basic and yet it has not been possible. So I was very pleased when it was pronounced that this basic option was finally possible in Revit 2012. Alas it is not. I am so very dissapointed because this is a basic feature wich should have been fixed years ago.
 
Any simple method to edit profile on a curved wall without having to attach wall top and buttom to invisible layers of floors and roofs ect.

Revit :: Modify The Profile Of Curved Walls

Sep 26, 2011

whether it's possible to modify the profile of curved walls. Normally when you select a wall, it should be possible to edit the wall and its profile, though when a wall is curved, the button "edit profile" is gray. Is there any other way to obtain a similar effect, maybe using masses or so?
