Create Wall or Directshape

Rhino.Inside Revit

Hi All,

I’m trying to create a wall from 3 surfaces likes this.

Ideally the 3 surfaces should be the outer skin of the wall but Im not sure whether its possible to create a wall component like this.

Therefore I though I offset the surface, cap it etc. to generate something that looks like a wall and then send it to Revit via direct shape but thats not really working either.

Does anyone know why?

There are 3 options in the Wall category.

  1. System Family of a wall (would need two points)
  2. Directshape in Wall category
  3. An extended Wall family in place using the create template trick: Extended Templates with RIR

Hi @scottd,

I’ve tried your option 3 but seem to be getting the same error message as with my initial option. It looks like its more an issue with the geomtry?

Any idea what the issue is with the geometry?

Many thanks,

Hi Quickly23, if you look at your preview it will highlight the problematic geometry.
