Join beams

[Bilan_Gumus]

Is it possible to join multiple beams into a single beam ? This is not very convenient for manufacturing. I had to explode curves from grasshopper to be able to send it to revit because of tolerance. The result is not good.

Revit isn’t a fabrication software, which why it is very typical for there to be 2 or 3 structural models with a project (original Arch, Shop Drawing/Coordination & Fabrication). Tekla being the most popular structural fabrication software in my experience.

The same goes for curtain walls, you can’t even get close to a fabrication model in Revit due to the segmentation.

That said there are ways to draw atypical members in Revit. This Zach Kron classic comes to mind..

Hi @Bilan_Gumus,

Have you tried the following

Curve should be C1 continous tolerance 0.1 degree error

Hi @Bilan_Gumus, You can massage the curves a bit before feeding the ‘Add Structural Beam’ component like this. [image] RiR-BeamsFromCurves.gh (200.2 KB) The component could do it automatically but I do prefer you have full control about what tolerance values are used and how the curves are converted to be valid for Revit. [image] In this case there is still pending to deal with the three closed curves you have on your input. Revit requires open curves to create beams.

Yes i did, but there are to much problems, beams missing, cpu usage to much, + some beams are deforming to respect tolerance wich changes the projects original design. .
