You are scheduling sheets. The scale on a sheet is dependant on the views on the sheet. If you have 1 or more views and they all have the same scalle then it will read out at that scale. If they are different scales then it will fill out at "As indicated."

 

If you want a view list goView-New-View List. That will list out all of your floor plan, ceiling plans, etc in a list and scale will be an available field.

 

It wil probably not read out as you expect though. Revit calculates the scale out in base numbers and the 1= is implied. So a 1/8" = 1' drawing will have a scale of 96....

I would just create a generic text parameter for this and then just type in the scale. Since it's text it will keep the values that you type in so you will be able to change them through the pull down in each cell...or just copy / paste.

 

Like Nick says, the list is scheduling sheets and the scale is dependant on the view. You can't creat an inteligent parameter to read the scale of a view and list it in a schedule for a sheet.

I simply don't understand why Revit knows how to calculate the scale on a sheet but doesn't know how to do this in list of sheets?? In most cases I use the same scale in one sheet and so i get one scale like 1:50, 1:100 or so. And even if there were differents scales, I don't mind "As indicated". So why there is no column "scale" in sheets' list? It's not logical.

The solution to do this manually is not suitable for me although I use this often because of missing interconnections between elements (like height of a room or others).

So maybe in a newer version? I use Revit 2011 and there is a little expectation of upgrade by my company.
