Hey all, I'm new to Revit 2013 and am focusing mostly on the MEP side of things but one structural portion I need to get figured
out is how to create UniStrut PS-200, shown in this .pdf here: [url]http://www.powerstrut.com/ps200pdf/ps200.pdf[/url]
I would prefer to make this so that it gets placed just like any other structural item, such as C-Channel. You load the family,
click the first point, drag along the desired length and click again to end it. Below I'll lay out the steps I began to take so
you can see where I am stuck.
1. I did New -> Family -> Generic Model
2. I began drawing the profile shown in the above .pdf, and got it centered along both of the axis that show when you open
the new family.
Now I'm stuck. I started going down this route assuming I needed to make a profile first because when I open the C-Channel
family and go into the editor, it appears it was created with a profile and then a sweep. The sweep function wasable to select
the profile of the channel. I can't seem to figure out how to convert my sketch into the profile, which then can be swept.
Thanks fellas!
