Hello

I am working on an existing brick building in revit. I have drawn all the existing masonry walls (i modeled them in place as they are fairly irregular). I am now starting to add the foundations to the building and wondering if anyone has added brick corbelled (stepped) foundations sitting on a concrete strip footing before. The 'wall foundation' function does not seem to recognise my walls (possibly because i modeled them in place), so i imagine i would have to model the foundations in place aswell. Any ideas?

thanks for your help

You should add an image of your walls.  We may have been able to show you how you could use walls instead of modeling in place.   

Not sure about what you mean about a corbelled foundation.,  With regular walls, if the bottom of the wall steps, the foundation will step.
