Add wall by profile - accuracy

Hi everyone,

I have been using the “Add wall (profile) component” and seeing some inaccuracies. The profile curv and the Brep match perfectly in Rhino but are not matching once in Revit. The Brep is pushed in Revit using the Family Method.
I am using version 1.0.7894.17525

Thanks for your help !

Thanks for reporting Gui.

Its something about that wall style is giving it an offset. If you use a Generic 5" wall you will see it works as expected.

The autodesk supplied wall you are using has a lot of modification 3 sweeps & 4 reveals. None of which exactly explain the distance we are seeing. I’ll keep digging.

Thanks for looking into this Japhy,
I am actually just pulling wall types from the Revit template I am working with, just a simple brick wall.


The brick on CMU wall type you see may come from the Revit file you opened the Rhino/GH definition in ?
In any case, I am noticing that the profiles of the walls in Revit are not exactly the Rhino curves input.

Thanks again for digging in !

EDIT : if the walls are pushed in with the “allow join” option set to false, the geometry is correct though

Gui,

Yeah, its also joining the subcomponents and such, so lots going on. There was a recent change to that the component that may help. You will need to be on the Release Candidate though (switch to “Release Candidates” channel from the Options dialog and test it now if you like)
