Hi All,
This is my first ever post on Revit City. I am currently trying to draw a 25m high warehouse with lattice girder trusses. What is the best way to draw these? Should I produce these as a family?

It depends on how detailed you want your model to be. If you are going to be seeing the trusses in 3D then I would try to create a family for your truss. Otherwise if its just sections you might be better off just detailing with lines.

I would do them as a family (non-parametric) with all of the lattice done as one sketched extrusion in elevation.
The question is do you do the lattice as two planes? that would be easy. Do one and copy - rotate for the other side.

Thanks guys!
I plan to draw it all in 3d, is there a way to make the lattice frame parametic so it can be altered in the model should the engineer change his mind?

You could make the lattice a lot bigger in both dimensions, then use a parametric void mask to cut it...BUT Voids can start to overload models and I would not waste my time doing it. I would just edit the family if the engineer changes sizes.
