You’re first going to have to set the variables of the size of the volume in a way that they’re controlled by parameters, then use the Element.SetParameterByName node.

Can you tell me the specific operation?

A lot of that is within Revit. I’d advice looking up at a specific tutorial for setting dimensions with parameters or ask about it on the Revit MEP forum (https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-mep-forum/bd-p/188). After that come back and make a topic about the Element.SetParameterByName node.

@434412446, you can get all the elements nested inside your wall (doors / windows / openings), using the “Element.Inserts” node from the Clockwork package:

element%20inserts

Then query these inserts’ dimensions, volume, etc.
