Beams and columns are two seperate elements in revit. Sounds like the family is incorrectly labelled as being a column. The beam would need to be recreated as a structural column.
HTH.

I received some additional information about my original question and thought I would post it here for others who might have the same probelm.
Edit the family, change the category (Settings: Family Category and Parameters) from Structural Framing to Structural Columns and then save it as a different family file (like grd 450 col). Load that family into the project and then try again.
A good resukt all round.

I replied to your thread in augi.. check it out.
edit: nevermind.. that's my post quoted above =)
I can see that method being a problem with Stuctural Analysis but I'm not familiar enough with how RS works so I couldn't be sure. There may neeb to be some tweaking of structural parameters in order for it to analyze correctly, so be wary of that.

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is never get involved in a land war in asia, but only slightly less well known is this! Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line! |
