Plugins Automatically distributes family instances along a continuous path-Array On Path In Revit Works With: Autodesk Revit Architecture 2012; Autodesk Revit Structure 2012; Autodesk Revit MEP 2012
Target Customers
All users that work with Autodesk® Revit® Architecture 2012 , Autodesk® Revit® MEP 2012, Autodesk® Revit® Structure 2012
Product Description
This plugin prompts the user to select a set of continuous curves (lines, arcs or splines) ,select a family instance and define “distribution settings” (offset and distance). It then copies the selected family instance along the selected path; the distance between consecutive family instances will be according to the “distribution settings” and the families will be oriented in a way to match with the curve’s derivative at the insertion point.
Benefits
Implements a feature not readily available in Revit®.
Features
• Works with lines, arcs, ellipses and splines • Family instances orientation can be linked to the curve’s derivative • Use of predefined patterns Distance between consecutive family instances will be according to the “distribution settings” and the families will be oriented in a way to match with the curve’s derivative at the insertion point.
Automatically Distributes Supports Elements for Networks of Pipes, Ducts and Cable Tray In Revit
Product Description
This plugin prompts the user to: select a duct or a pipe network, define a pattern (distance between consecutive support elements, minimum distance and other rules….) and select an architecture or structure Revit® Link; afterwards, the plugin automatically distributes support elements for the selected network, the width of the support is adjusted to match with the duct width, the location of the nearest slab (in the Revit link) is taken into consideration to adjust each support’s element height.
Benefits
This plugin automates the process of distributing support elements for ducts and pipes and drastically reduces the effort and time it requires.
Features
• Works with Revit® links • Works with pipes (both rectangular and circular) • Support position/ dimensions / orientation are automatically adjusted
Documentation
User’s manual, step by step movie
