Solution to no. 1 (Stairs riser doesnt reach top floor) is quite simple. Just uncheck the "End with Riser" option under the stairs properties (while the stairs is selected), and make sure "Desired Number of Risers" and Actual Number of Risers" match. That's it! ✌
Not in case does that work. Here is an example. I am using "monolithic Run stair 150mm depth". I am doing stairs from the ground floor 0M up to the second floor 3M. My tread depth is 280 and my riser height is 176.47. I sketch the stairs and I get 17 risers and treads however there is a gap at the top so I uncheck the "end with riser" and it does that all right but then my "Relative Top Height" is only 2823.53 and still below the second floor. I then try changing that value of the "Relative Top Height" to 3000 and I get the dreaded "Top elevation of the run should not be less than value of the "extended below base". The only thing I can do then is to go to the elevation view and drag the top point to increase the height to match the second floor. This does not seem like the right approach to me and it shows the "Relative Top Height" to 3176.47 which is obviously not. What am I missing here? I am using Revit 2021 so I hope it's not a bug. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
When we face this problem in stairs to floor connection, we select the last flight (or run) and check off the "end with riser" option from its instance properties. Doing this adds a step in the "desired number of steps" option and revit allows us to create an additional step with the similar riser height, which kind of solves the problem for us without messing with the railing hosted to it. I think you should give this a try too. Anyways, thanks for your tutorials. These help us a lot. :)

How to hide the "above"- lines at stairs... so annoying and yet so simple to solve... if you know how... ha ha ha... that step alone made this video AWESOME!!! Thank you for sharing!
You just blew my mind with that railing trim, I've used Revit for over 10 years and never knew that was possible. Stairs, and railings in particular, have always been such a headache for me.
1. Floor and stairs connection, and the railing problem. Solved with landing, thin line, split line. 2. Show part, about the wall's visibility 3. Hard to select the desired revit family on properties, so just find it on the project browser. 4. When you are annoyed because of the unintentional drag, just change how the Modify tool does. Click select below the modify tool.
Did you try another approach to resolve the issue that maintains stair integrity? Try the following steps 1- Select the stair 2- Edit stair 3- Select the run 4- Uncheck the "End with riser" in properties filed under construction 5- Add one step to compensate for the missing step and reach the required level
The top of those stairs just looks wrong, both in 3D and floor plan. On floor plan it looks like there’s another riser where you created that small landing.The floor should be thicker as well. In reality a floor thickness will always be greater than a stair riser, meaning you will never have that gap. The reality is, that the floor SHOULD form the last step so revit is behaving correctly. You can always check the “end with riser” box if you want.
For those who just watched the part about the stair. That is not what you do. (erase that from your memory) What you do is: Once you finish stretching out or dragging out the stair. click on the stair you just made, look in Properties: Construction - Uncheck - End with riser. (that means that your stair will end with a tread instead) That's all you do. if you have a bunch of stairs and do this tip shown for every stair, you will have a headache If someone decides to change the location of the stair. Balkan, for every other tip, thanks.

be careful using a landing to deal with the gap at the top of the stair. While this looks good in 3D and sections views, in plan view it looks like an extra step/ going and from experience, this has been an issue with one of our jobs when i didnt quite understand revit stairs and the builder nearly added an extra step but luckily caught it. As mentioned in the comments below, use the "end with Riser" tick box. Even turning off the stair lines as you suggest in plan view can lead to issues with not allowing correctly for head room under stairs because you cant see where the stairs finish. etc. Pretty isnt always best and every line means something. some good tips for railings though. Thanks for your tutorials. Keep it up.
Landing step is an special architectural element which is a part and host element of the staircases not the slab, so checking off "end with riser " seems to solve the problem in very rough perspective.
Regarding the top of the stairs where the floor meet engineering wise there will be a beam along the top of the stair and edge of floor to support the floor and stairs
The options about what you can do with your mouse are also in the right down corner of the screen. Maybe it's easier because you get a little picture with it.
I think we shouldn't add landing to the stair. In construction, we have a beam at the end of the stair. The beam often have the thickness of 300 milimeters and it will connect to the end of the stair.
Right on the point with number one-stairs!! I struggled with this issue for some days now, thank you for the tip, it may solve it, but still in plan one should remove the lines of the landing (maybe by "painting" them in invisible style). My question is how can we annotate stairs as they should be - for example, 16 St. x 16.6/ 30 cm so that they refer to the stair and not be just a text?
Drop down for components. Just start typing with the keyboard. That street light you scrolled to the bottom to find, if you'd just started typing "light" (without quotes) then the list filters to components with "light" in the name. Much easier to manage. Especially on projects with hundreds of views and sheets and it's more difficult to scroll the project browser.
All the problems with finding families by search option are going from wrong/incomplete families naming. And that's why it is really important to have office standards of components naming and to be restrictive about that :)
3:45 - I lost points in college because of stuff like this. I'd move a window, save and submit. But I also had the roof selected so I got the window proper but the roof is now floating in space. 😆
I just created an object family by extrusion. it took 3 minutes with the addition of instance parameters. paste on the edge and align. reinforcing stairs with this object is obtained
I find making a straight ramp that becomes a curve annoying. I iften have to resort to create a floor slab and then manipulate the levels. Anybody has a tutorial referring to this.
Hi BA Another great video but PLEASE either remove that highly distracting watermark or at least make it half the size and faded. It takes up too much screen real estate and detracts from the tutorial. Kepp up the great work.
There is a better solution: You will unconnect the Top stair and then you put the Total height of the Floor + 1 Step. This work here and i see it is better than this solution making landing
Kindly tell me how to get new type of railing all kind of Bim family to get best rendering.and also give me tutorial about CNC cutting board design in Revit.
Nr one annoying thing is Walls if you split them you cannot move them without moving everything else including floors. You should be able to un attach them.
Good afternoon.... I have issues regarding stairs in revit. Everytime i create a stairs it gives me a warning saying the stairs either excedes or is short. How do you fix the problem?
Hi! You promised to find solution to problems we have, so I have this one: How to make facia texture follow roof slope? You can move it with align tool, but not rotate.
Can you please give solution if roof by footprint does not works. Instead it makes simple flat slab. Means no slope angle enable to put in value for slope
When I create a section through brick and foundation , there is a conflict between the soil and brick. You can not distinguish the soil and wall easily. What am I doing wrong?
What is the difference between becoming a member and subscribing to the course? I am interested in sign up, just need help to see which one is more suitable for me. I have Revit 2017 in my laptop, do you offer the practice download files in the 2017 version? Thank you.
Thank you Sir, for the more informative video. I have an issue in my project. I had completed structure but when I go to elevation view some unwanted lines are seen in my view like columns, beams, floor and wall but I want to without any unwanted lines like autocad elevation view. How to resolve it. Is there any plastering options for the same.
I'm having problems with the "from room" & "to room" in the path of travel schedule. Those two columns are showing "not available" and I have already tagged all the rooms. How can I resolve this?
I always have a trouble when I try to do stairs. I normally want a stair with 2cm wood risers and treads and bellow them, before the concrete structure I want 2cm of regularization. How can I do this? thanks!
Sorry. The stair fix is not a fix at all. It creates additional line work to the floor plans which will only confuse matters (and don’t tell me to use line override and set to invisible lines, or turn landings off). Coming from a Revit user of nearly 20 years, I would not recommend this method. Unfortunately, there is no workaround with current Revit software and joins a list of many dream items. You can ‘cut profile’ in the section view to tidy up this top connection...... but please don’t give people ideas like this.
The actual work around, sucks. It’s to make a 2D drafting view of the section and link a CAD file detail, trace the cad lines into Revit lines and families, then remove the cad link, then set the section view to link to the reference other view. So much for 3D BIM.
what if I don't want the hidden lines of the landing to be shown? if I unchecked the outlines in the Visibility/graphic box, all will disappear! I don't want that, I only want the landing lines to disappear... I also tried the lineweight tool but it did not work
Hey @Balkan, I have a problem Sorry for my english, I'm a frenchspeaker. Ok when I create some in place Masses, and I duplicate them across my project, If I have to edit the shape or material of one of them (copies) all the duplicated masses are scattered away. Do you have tricks for that issue ? Thanks in advance.
SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME: For some reason, when I insert railings on my second floor and above (the same railing family I've been using for all floors) it just gives me a white box, and when you hover over it it reveals the detail below, whereas my ground and first floor shows the detail fine. I've checked the family, checked VG, checked VR, checked everything. I'm out of ideas. Please can anyone help?
Annoying #6? Join window trim. I discovered if you have multiple individual windows next to each other with overlapping trim you can join the trim into a single unit. However, whether it shows or disappears from view is very inconsistent and I can't figure out the reason why. Anyone?
The main thing i find annoying is detailing.If you wanna repesent everything as it should (with line thicknesses and labels and insulation that goes around the column for example) you have to "explode" the wall but that eay you lose the model
pjetri24 Revit modelling should not be taken to a detail scale. It sound crazy right. What you should do is create call outs etc from the model and effectively completely draw over the model background by turning display model to halftone. Eventually turn off model display once detail is resolved. There are still issues with this (tagging etc), however the result is clean documentation. If a model changed in future it is easy to turn the view back to halftone display to understand the background revision and allow for detail amendment
I have linked architecture and structure model. In architecture model I've been modeling for the walls, floor and ceiling. In structure model I have columns and beam. When i checked for interference. It has reported clash between walls and Structural columns. The same issues for ceiling and floor. How to fix it? I mean, how to make walls trim by the structural coloumns.
As I remember you can not cut elements by a geometry from a linked model. So it will be like it is. If I'm wrong, then somebody please let me know. You may always change your project elements (walls etc.) as non structural components and maybe it will change behavior of clash detection. But I did not try it out. That's why BIM Menagers have to filter out clash detections when using Navis Works :)
@@algali8487 yeah, perhaps you're right. Somebody told me the same thing.I have to edit my architecture model. So I get accurate quantities take off. Anyway, should I use navisworks to check the clash. Why doesn't use the interference check for it? I mean, what makes the navisworks better compared to interference check?
@@momokgoryo Nah, Revit clash detection tool is good enough for basic stuffs. Navis Works is a really powerfull program to menage big projects where all the engineerings brands are linked as BIM models. Just look at tutorials of Navis Works, check out how it works and compare it with Revit :) It is complitely different program that allows you to really clearly detect the location of collision in complex projects, it gives you a lot of controll in filtering etc. Also I've got a tip (in Revit): If you need to locate an object in collision select one of the colliding ones and use 'Selection Box' (Modify tools -> View -> Selection Box or just BX - default keybord shortcut). It gonna create section box in your default 3D view. Duplicate this view and lock it in position (small button on the right of "Show crop region" in the bottom toolbar) if you do so, then you may put text notes, tags and a lot of other stuffs on 3D views :) It really speeds up catching out collision spots and is faster then making sections or callouts ;)
I have a very frustrating problem when I use Revit, Stairs are the most annoying thing to do in Revit, I have a small staircase that I want to attach to the floor above but Revit does not want to do it the way I want it to. Do you know why this happens? are what I should do because I think I might have to re do the whole model again.

Thank you kind sir, I learnt a couple of absolute gems. The ‘drag on selection’ toggle i had know clue about, thanks for sharing.
Nice video, I normally just offset by height of the threat and one step less than is given as quantity of steps. Lot quicker.

Import families drag and drop, sir!! Why not to go with create similar option.. and if it is not in use but loaded then it will be in top
Is anyone has the solution for splitting the railing?
SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME:
For some reason, when I insert railings on my second floor and above (the same railing family I've been using for all floors) it just gives me a white box, and when you hover over it it reveals the detail below, whereas my ground and first floor shows the detail fine. I've checked the family, checked VG, checked VR, checked everything. I'm out of ideas. Please can anyone help?
Annoying #6? Join window trim. I discovered if you have multiple individual windows next to each other with overlapping trim you can join the trim into a single unit. However, whether it shows or disappears from view is very inconsistent and I can't figure out the reason why. Anyone?
THANK you. Jeez.
The main thing i find annoying is detailing.If you wanna repesent everything as it should (with line thicknesses and labels and insulation that goes around the column for example) you have to "explode" the wall but that eay you lose the model
pjetri24 Revit modelling should not be taken to a detail scale. It sound crazy right. What you should do is create call outs etc from the model and effectively completely draw over the model background by turning display model to halftone. Eventually turn off model display once detail is resolved. There are still issues with this (tagging etc), however the result is clean documentation. If a model changed in future it is easy to turn the view back to halftone display to understand the background revision and allow for detail amendment
I can't put desired stair height into my level 2 floor level
I have linked architecture and structure model. In architecture model I've been modeling for the walls, floor and ceiling. In structure model I have columns and beam. When i checked for interference. It has reported clash between walls and Structural columns. The same issues for ceiling and floor. How to fix it? I mean, how to make walls trim by the structural coloumns.
As I remember you can not cut elements by a geometry from a linked model. So it will be like it is. If I'm wrong, then somebody please let me know. You may always change your project elements (walls etc.) as non structural components and maybe it will change behavior of clash detection. But I did not try it out. That's why BIM Menagers have to filter out clash detections when using Navis Works :)
@@algali8487 yeah, perhaps you're right. Somebody told me the same thing.I have to edit my architecture model. So I get accurate quantities take off.
Anyway, should I use navisworks to check the clash. Why doesn't use the interference check for it? I mean, what makes the navisworks better compared to interference check?
@@momokgoryo Nah, Revit clash detection tool is good enough for basic stuffs. Navis Works is a really powerfull program to menage big projects where all the engineerings brands are linked as BIM models. Just look at tutorials of Navis Works, check out how it works and compare it with Revit :) It is complitely different program that allows you to really clearly detect the location of collision in complex projects, it gives you a lot of controll in filtering etc.
Also I've got a tip (in Revit):
If you need to locate an object in collision select one of the colliding ones and use 'Selection Box' (Modify tools -> View -> Selection Box or just BX - default keybord shortcut). It gonna create section box in your default 3D view. Duplicate this view and lock it in position (small button on the right of "Show crop region" in the bottom toolbar) if you do so, then you may put text notes, tags and a lot of other stuffs on 3D views :) It really speeds up catching out collision spots and is faster then making sections or callouts ;)
Awesome
stair up and down arrows never seem to do what I want them to do automatically.
It always JUST overlaps the last tread
I have a very frustrating problem when I use Revit, Stairs are the most annoying thing to do in Revit, I have a small staircase that I want to attach to the floor above but Revit does not want to do it the way I want it to. Do you know why this happens? are what I should do because I think I might have to re do the whole model again.
Just add the step at the top like he did, but move the stair back, the same distance as the step, rather than cutting into the floor plate.
Can I ask some tips I can't modify split may railing can anyone tell what can I do
Wow 💚💪
