hi, i want to make up a partition wall that has got cement board panels on either sides and mullion framework sandwiched in between. the panels need to be flushed with each other so that from either sides the mullions are not seen . how to do it.

have tried making panels frm the template , but the panels dont flush . system panels have got some special property which i dont know but they flush with each other when the offset goes beyond the mullion width but panels made by families dont flush.

"i want to make up a partition wall that has got cement board panels on either sides and mullion framework sandwiched in between. the panels need to be flushed with each other so that from either sides the mullions are not seen" I don't understand, can you put some screenshots to figure out???

Hi, you can adjust the mullions position (in front, middle, back) of the glass panels(cement), you also has the parameter "Adjust for mullion size"...

I make a video today for you when i have possibility...

Hi again, see the video: http://screencast.com/t/EAkNuDEVa4

Hi, i don't remove the glazed, i just put them in a "Empty system panel"...

about "but one of my problem also is how to have the panels on either sides of the framework" like what? "Double Glass"?? and you don't want the "Concrete panels"? All system with "Double Glass"?Or double glass in top and double panel bottom??

yes i got it .. ie empty panels .

umm.. but  both sides means concrete panels oneither sides . i think the best way i can tell you what i need to do is by sending you a 3d image frm skp .

Hi, it's very simple to do that, you must create a "Curtain wall Family" where you can include or not, the mullion then in your project when you create a curtain wall you must choose in "Curtain Panel" this family, there are several ways to do this, i do this a few hours ago but i can't upload the video because i have problems with the JING program, i don't know but i think it's in "Screencast.com" where i have the video files and "He" don't let me upload the files...

hey, i have tried what u showed but there is some mistake i make in either locking the planes or the parameters. i want the panels to flush .wirth each other as u see in the skp. but as i add the mullions the panels dont flush . the mullions show from the gaps .

i am uploading the revit file . plz see it .

 i know i am taking a lot of your patience. but sorry , i am a new learner.
