![]() It is important to note that the Revit Family used as an example is a piece of Furniture, a Chair, for which the manufacturer provides a fixed size and materials that can be chosen from the catalogue. Within the first type we find the parameters of the Furniture BIM Family: ![]() In this case, we see that there are three types of parameters: The "Family Types" menu that opens provides all information about the Furniture family parameters. When opened, the "Chair" Furniture object file will look like this: Take, for example, a chair, and more precisely the "Solo S62". The easiest thing to do is start from one of the furnitureRevit Families found on this website to understand how it was created. This tutorial will show how to crate a Revit family and, in particular, a furniture 3D BIM object. ![]() Therefore, we need to understand their features to better exploit the potential and integration with the main BIM model that hosts them. They are interior design objects, such as Chairs, tables, armchairs and sofas, or real Architectural models such as doors, windows, cladding etc. The creation of BIM Objects, commonly called families in Revit, is essential for the completion of 3D BIM models, and for their proper operation.īIM Objects are commonly searched for on the Internet in order to be included in a Revit design environment as Families without being modified in any way, and we often ignore the fundamental features, how they were made, the parameters used, the purposes they must fulfil, and the potential interaction with the 3D Model in construction.ĭifferently from what happens with a “.dwg” file in Autocad, or a “.ifc”, “.rfa” (Revit BIM Families are ".rfa", Revit BIM Projects are ".rvt" files) when a "Bim Family" object is added to a project Parametric 3D Model, the latter is enriched with all the information contained within the inserted object that can, therefore, be interrogated, edited, accounted for, etc.
