HiI'm using Revit 2015 and I was wondering there is a way to place a room in a place which is defined by the rooms usable space. For example if i am placing a rom in a loft or top floor space where the roof slopes down. How can i define the room where only the space with a 1200mm clearance is able to be used?thanksOwen

it depends on your target eventually , but if i understood you well i think you first have to set the room limits right , and then if you want this information to show in a schedule i would fill that this space is usuable in the "comments" parameter built in the rooms , or you can add a shared parameter in the rooms category .

They only way I see to do this is to add room boundry lines in the loft plan at the point where the ceiling is too low.
NOTE The loft would have a seperate room from the open space in the floor below.

Thanks for these suggestions;I had a reply back in the AUGI forum that you may find useful;
Hi Owen,
Rooms can calculate that space.
Go to a section cut, and select the level.
In the property panel, you can set the calculation height of the level.
It will be the one used by the level rooms!
Do it, go back to your attic plan, and check the surface, it will compute at the right height, so with the right clearance!
Personnaly, in france, the clearance height is 180cm, so I always set the calculation height of every single level at 1.8m.
Only issue will apprea when you are on a balcony, computation height being above the peripheral walls it will not calculate it the right way anymore.
That is when room separations become useful!
Cheers, François
