Revit Floor Pick Pointa

Floors and roofs that have been shape edited will not report a true thickness.

Revit floor pick pointa. Create a toposurface by defining points open a 3d view or a site plan view. Dragging a red square shape handle moves the point horizontally. As soon as you place the point revit resolves the new surface by triangulating it. Make sure you place it within the boundary of the floor element.

Click massing site tabmodel site panel toposurface. You can use the add point tool to add singular points to the element geometry. You can use shape editing tools to manipulate the surface of a flat non sloped floor or roof by defining high and low points for drainage. However more significant slopes will increase this variance.

By specifying the elevation of these points you split the surface into sub regions that can slope independently. The points are used by the shape modification tools to change the element geometry. Select the floor or roof to modify. Click the text control to enter a precise height value for the selected point or edge.

Next to the elevation text. The value of the height represents the offset from the original top face of the floor. Shape edit examples use shape editing tools to slope a constant thickness floor or the top surface of a floor with a variable thickness layer. The shape editing tools were designed to allow for moderate slopes and in such cases variances in true thickness are trivial.

Click modify tabshape editing panelpick supports. The elevation edit box displays on the options bar with a relative check box next to it. There are 3 different origin points in a revit project. If we switch to a 3d view it is far easier to see what is going on.

By default the place point tool on the ribbon is active. Select an existing beam. Read our post about the update. The points and their elevations are used to create the surface.

The project base point the survey point and the secret internal origin. You can use the pick supports tool to pick beams to define split lines and create constant bearing lines for the floor or roof. Select the floor or roof to modify. Dragging a blue arrow moves the point vertically.

A new split edge is created using the endpoint elevations from the picked reference. Are you using revit 2020 2 or a more recent version. The elevations are moved up from the bottom face to the top face of. With the point s elevation set go ahead and click in the active view to place the point.
