    Thanks! Looks really nice.
    To save time, demonstrate the "tab trick" while using pick lines or clicking edges for the fascia. When fascia command is active, simply hover over a line or edge and press tab and it will select all joined lines. Then left-click and all the fascia are created at the same time :)

    @Patrickorwa 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I discovered that you don’t have to flatten the site cad from Autocad. Place points at the center of the elevation markers in AutoCAD then import to revit. Add topo surface then import points. At the dialogue box import the layer containing the points that you imported. This will form a surface. If the surface is too high or low , go to elevation and drag it to the light level and voila. You’ll can also align your surface in the x or y in the same way.

    Edit subregion. Copy the lines.

    Paste aligned.
    Use roof fascia with a profile for the curb.

    This all makes sense, but I am not sure if this is what someone would do in a production environment? Correct me if I am wrong. It just seems this is good for a rendering if that is what you are using revit for. Don't get me wrong, this was super helpful and very clear!

    I can't believe Revit exists for so long and it's still so awkward creating sites with realistic road and curb.. I usually use floor elemnts and force it on site with pick points. BTW - how do you add road markings and lines? If you have more then one lane it looks dull. How would you add a center line or dashed lines going around the road?..

      Unknown thanks. That's a straight flat road. How would you do it on a slope with a curved road like the one in this model?..

    • @martynLroberts
      @martynLroberts 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      That is my thought as well . If your road cuts across a topo that is sloping the road should still be flat in section but sloping with the topo in its linear direction.

    • @RyanMJohnston
      @RyanMJohnston 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      If I were you I'd create a custom railing for the street lines. You can force a railing to attach to a surface and if you can get it right it'll look great. You'll just have to get good at creating railings

    Interesting approach, shame about the roof categories having to be used for mass by face but makes sense given the limitations of the software. An alternative approach I'm going to run a tutorial on will be to use dynamo to 'drape' a floor with sub-points onto the topo using Dynamo, cut out the ground below and lower by a set amount to another level and use slab edges for the kerb profile.

    Just to add. I tried with split surface but it doesnt work properly when you have too many sidewalks or elements next to each other, the pick up lines with the topography was a nightmare to get the lines, i got al type of errors. I fix it by using sub-region instead of split surfaces and it worked like a charm. Same method but using sub-region.

    This is not a correct way to use tools. I think Revit is not just about Modelling. I mean it's not SketchUp. Its Building Information Modelling. If you use Roof family in Landscape, you won't get accurate Roof material, because it will count landscape curbs as well.
