Hi

I want to generate a parametric family for a truss. How to achieve this in Revit 2013 ?

Provision of facility is very important if not available. This will reduce repetative modeling work and hence save the time tremendously.

Start by dowloading the Revit Families guide and reading that. http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=13080413&linkID=9243097 

 

I have never seen a parametric wood truss with slopes and webbing done and not sure if its even possible without a TON of work.  You may be better off just creating the different truss types that you need one by one. 

 

You could also try an addin like this http://tools4revit.cadtrainingonline.com/tools4revit_truss.html  I have never tried these.

This question is not specific enough.  I suggest that you download a parametric family from this site and study it.  There are several already there.
