BIM Software Tip: How to Create Building Surfaces Using Revit Toilet Shape
1. Start by creating a new mass family, setting the elevation according to the design drawings.
2. On each level, draw and position the contours based on the provided floor plan contour maps.
3. Generate the shape by outlining the contour, then create a hollow circular form. Divide the surface into appropriately sized grids for better control.
4. Develop a new family template for curtain wall panel patterns. Design a grid pattern for the exterior facade, then load it into the mass to apply curtain wall panels.
5. Import the finished mass outer skin into your project.
