Revit Control Joins In Floor

Click modify tab geometry panel wall joins.

Revit control joins in floor. To select multiple intersected wall joins for clean up draw a selection box around the joins or while pressing ctrl select each of the joins. Nbs plug in for autodesk revit v3 8 update is available. Because with the line weights activated reveals don t show clearly unless there is a way to show single lines it is much easier to be an obstacle in revit then a resource. You can select to allow or disallow joins.

As shown in the following illustrations the tool removes the visible edge between the joined elements. The j55 floor expansion joint system acts as a flush control joint addressing daily thermal expansion and contraction for hard flooring finishes. If you do want to goto that level of detail with showing the joint in 3d with 2011 you can now cut elements with nested voids within a family so with a line based generic model based family you can have a void sweep once in the project you will just need to cut the floor to the line based family. Use the join geometry tool to create clean joins between 2 or more host elements that share a common face such as walls and floors.

The joined elements then share the same line weight and fill. You can also use the tool to join hosts and in place families or hosts and project families. The 432 floor expansion joint cover accommodates horizontal vertical and shear seismic movement. By default all walls created in revit are joined together.

A common issue among revit beginners is the unability to properly control if a line will display between 2 walls. Wall reveals and control joints. If they re truly control joints where they are individual slabs and not purely aesthetic grooves model each seperately with boundaries that don t touch and should you wish a control joint modelled between using another floor a wall or a line based generic model component but at that point i would be inclined to suggest you ve gone ott.
