Pinned objects will show a thumbtack when selected. Toggle it back on when you need to make adjustments to the pinned element. Simply toggle the “Select Pinned Element” button at the bottom right corner of your Revit model to disable, and your pinned element will no longer be selectable. Revit tries to visually highlight any elements that your cursor hovers over, and may take up some processing time when highlighting an extremely detailed element. This is helpful when an extremely large external Revit model is linked to the working Revit model. Pinned objects can also be set to not select or highlight when the cursor highlights over the pinned object. You can pin objects by selecting the pin object icon under the Modify Tab, or by typing PN while the object is selected. If you are referencing or overlaying an external dwg, rvt, or other types of drawings files, make sure they are pinned down to ensure that these reference files do not shift and cause inaccuracies in modeling. Make sure you check the box “Use Artboards”.Learn what construction technology leaders say about 4D BIM? Now you can export all of your wall types as JPEG images. In this case, each artboard is 100px high by 225px wide. Remember to keep the artboards the SAME SIZE. Using the “Artboard Tool” create individual artboards for each wall type. STEP 9: CREATE WALL TYPE IMAGES USING ILLUSTRATOR This creates vector file drawings of your wall types. Organize your legend according to your categories and label them according to their wall type. Under the View Tab, create a new legend and place plan views of all of your wall types using the “Legend Components” command. You can also add your Assembly Description without opening the wall family window. Having a working schedule allows you to make sure that the right function is applied to every wall, insert type marks, verify there are no duplicate type marks, etc. The main difference between a “Working Wall Schedule” and a presentation “Wall Schedule” is that there is NO filter applied and “Itemize every instance” is checked in the Sorting/Grouping Tab. STEP 6: SET UP THE SCHEDULE APPEARANCE STEP 7: USE A WORKING WALL SCHEDULE TO ORGANIZE AND IDENTIFY ALL OF YOUR WALL TYPES Remember to mark Function as a “Hidden Field”. “C” for the third exterior wall type in the project. “2” for an Exterior Wall and then a subsequent letter i.e. Type marks first identify the wall category i.e. Walls types are identified/tagged in plans and sections. STEP 3: FILTER THE SCHEDULE BY FUNCTION STEP 4: SORT & GROUP BY TYPE MARK Site Walls (or as REVIT likes to define them “Retaining Walls”).
The “Function” is a hidden field that we use to help categorize our wall types. STEP 1: START WITH A BASIC WALL SCHEDULE STEP 2: ADD OUR REQUIRED FIELDS
The goal is to identify the wall type, assembly description, wall thickness and showcase a plan view of the wall type.
#REVIT WALL JOIN DIFFERENT THICKNESS FULL#
Similar concept, but much more informative with a full assembly description moving from exterior finish to interior finish.įast forward to present day… We are transitioning to using REVIT for most of our projects and in the process of setting up our REVIT Standards. Then I read a little blog post “ Graphic Standards – Part 2” by Bob Borson on Life of an Architect. Hayne Wall Types circa 2008 – Malibu Bluff Estate In the olden days (HAHA)… Our Wall Types were displayed as plan detail drawings identifying the material composition and wall thickness.
