Revit See Perimeter Wall Through Roof

5 activate overhang on picked walls roofs.

Revit see perimeter wall through roof.

Valid boundaries are a joined roof or its bottom face a side face of a wall a bottom face of a floor an edge of the roof to be cut or a model line on the face of the roof to be cut. Select each boundary line and set the value in properties or in option bar. Use the following procedure to create a schedule for analyzing the perimeter of masses in a conceptual design. Next let s take a section through our building so that we can see how the external walls meet the underside of the roof.

The revit tool you would use to show the fittings behind the wall is on the view tab graphics panel and the tools are show hidden lines and then the opposite remove hidden lines. In this example side faces of walls and joined faces of the roof were selected. In this video i show you how to attach the walls in revit to the roof above them. You want to produce rough cost estimates based on its linear dimensions to check construction costs for the project.

The first step is to go to the elevation that will be used to display the object through the walls. With this line style selected all i need to do is click on each line that i want to apply this style to which is all the lines that make up the perimeter of the roof boundary. Use pick walls if you want the roof to automatically adjust when walls are moved. You have designed masses to explore a conceptual design for a building.

Height is controlled by the location of the sketch in elevation view. You can see in the image below that revit has now extended the selected wall vertically so that it fills in the triangular void. Depth is calculated by revit lt based on size of sketch unless you specify start and end points. You can set an overhang on roofs created with pick walls.

The design contains many angles and it may be too expensive to build. Specific steps may vary. Then change your visual style to wireframe. Valid boundaries are highlighted.

Open loop sketch of the roof profile. I just need to go around the rest of the perimeter and apply the overhead line style.
