Rhino inside Revit - Curtain wall from multiple surfaces

Hello,

I am still relatively new to Revit and have great interest of bridging Rhino and Revit.

I was wondering if it would be possible to create a single curtain wall in Revit, through Rhino.inside.Revit that is consistent from multiple surfaces which are all planar and on the same plane? Or, if it could be made those all planar surfaces as a single family, which when try to be edited - all planes can be picked together as one, but not individually?

Thank you for all possible advises and shared information.

Please see the screenshot attached.

Hi Ivo,

The way curtain walls are constructed in Revit isn’t conducive to that type of patterning, where you have vertical/horizontal and diagonal all in the same wall.

See this guide for more information about how Revit creates curtain walls.

That said you can get your geometry in as schedulable Revit curtain elements but they are not going to be native curtain walls with grids and such.

What are your objectives?

Thank you Japhy,

at the end I end up making them as generic component family. I thought as well that what I was asking is not achievable considering the current limitation of a curtain wall in Revit.

Thank you for the prompt reply. Much appreciated your effort and support in the forum.

Kind regards,

Ivo

Here they have managed to have curves from rhino environment converted as curtain grids in revit

Here you can make some notes on how they did this, and I am pretty much not clearer how this applies in the Rhino.Inside.Revit context but seems like there is a way to have curtain grids done

Expecting a ‘Create Curtain Grid‘ component from Rhino.Inside.Revit Team

Thank you for your efforts so far!!

Hi @Vasanth_C
Just ran a quick test. Yeah it possible but it would need tracking otherwise duplicates will be created.

Hi Vasanth C, Curtain Wall components have been a highly requested feature for some time now.

If this was a ‘low hanging fruit’ it would have been picked. Great to see that Beam has gotten this feature incorporated in the meantime.

Thank you for your patience while it makes it way up our developer’s priority list.
