Starting a new thread on an old topic. I was able to recreate the script discussed in this tread Fireproofing to Structural Framing Problem? using the Springs.DirectShape.ByGeometry and had great success with a large project creating actual Revit geometry that I could push to Glue to use for clash detection. However, something changed early this year and it hasn’t given me the same results. The script will run, with errors, and create the “geometry” in Dynamo 1.3.0.875 and Revit 2017, however the “geometry” in Revit cannot be selected and is not recognized when pushing a .nwc to Glue. Thoughts on what could be adjusted?
Dynamo - Steel Fireproofing.dyn (11.0 KB)@Mathew_Wellhausen perhaps you need to simplify your script, below is a good start. you can use the OOTB ‘directshape’ node, it works well.
Hi @rexfrancojesse I am new with dynamo script and can you please guide how to change direct shape/ geometry objects into Revit object/ family. The starting point is that we have void objects from IFC file that we are importing into Revit using Dynamo script and I am able to bring these objects as direct shape and next step is to cut the walls/ other interesting objects, but for that we need Revit objects.
@adil_bari
Could you please start a new thread with some illustration of you preliminary work?
You can link it to this one this way if needed:
Thanks
Hi @Mathew_Wellhausen , I’ll quote myself
Thanks Mostafa for guidance. I just find the solution and instead of using directshape. I am now using the spring node to create a family instance i.e., Spring.FamilyInstance.ByGeometry.
I actually meant add the fireproofing in the structural framing family itself It would be way more flexible and fast to execute, not to mention the fact that It would adapt automatically in case there are changes in the project…
Fireproofing is a process that increases the fire resistance of a building or object. In other words, this is a process that prevents fire from destroying a building or object. It can be applied to many areas of the building, such as the floors, walls and ceilings. The most common solution is the application of heat-resistant materials on the surface of the area to be protected.
Fire Proofing is not just the simple steps of applying a chemical layer coat on the building structure or installing the other devices. Fireproofing is the technique used by the safety standards to get less risk of a fire starting in the office or building.
