I am being asked by a client to build an existing facility in Revit.  The building was constructed in the 1950's and does not use the currently published AISC steel shapes (they use the WF designation).  Although some are similar to the current shapes, not all are.

 Has anyone found a beam family for these historc shapes?  Or can suggest where I might find them>

Thanks

I think you will have to make those that you can not model with the newer shapes.

have you looked at autodesk seek?

 

you could also create the sizes yourself.  each family has a .txt file associated with it, which can be imported into excel, and exported back out.  you could use excel to build this family of historic sizes.

 

make sense?
