Import geometry to massing template

[Mohammad_Nawar]

Hi all,

As you see in the picture below i am trying to import a geometry to massing template but it’s failing to show the right shape in Revit.

Any ideas ?

Thank you

@Vikram_Subbaiah can you help ?

@Mohammad_Nawar, as far as I’ve seen, Dynamo has a much more capable geometry engine compared to Revit. This means that sometimes it is not possible to create a complex shape in Revit environment using Dynamo in a straightforward way: this results in either broken geometry, or in singularity that throws Revit exception.

You could try importing only the framing curves into Revit, then manually build your shape using these curves. The other way is to import DirectShape (directshape.bygeometry), but in this case you won’t be able to edit resulting geometry in Revit.

Listing Adaptive Component Placement point Locations

Step 1: In the Adaptive Component family create Instance parameters for each coordinate of every vertex (Vertex 1X, Vertex 1Y, Vertex 1Z…Vertex 4X, Vertex 4Y, Vertex 4Z) Step 2: Load and use this family into the Conceptual Mass Family Step 3: Launch Dynamo and Run the below definition File: AC-VetrexCoordinates.dyn [20160514-2] On Running this definition the Instance parameters will be populated. Step 4: Load this Mass into the project Step 5: The vertex coordinates of each Adaptive Comp…
