Software : Revit Architecture 209
Level : Beginner - Intermediate
Description : Revit Architecture 2009 is out and has some pretty cool new features. The first one I’m posting about is Sweep Blend. I cant think of a better way to explain it than saying imagine taking the blend tool and combining it with the sweep tool. It’s pretty much just that. Like in the blend you pick to shapes “profiles” to blend between except now you can o it along a path. I’m going to experiment with surface continuity by importing 3d curves from Rhino but for now this video covers the basics of how it works.

    Hey there =)

    …the only problem, I’ve found, is that you have to use a continous line,spline or curve for it to work.

    You can’t ,for example, fillet a corner, and use this as a path because the path then consists of more than one segment, which Revit complains about and won’t accept as a valid path.

    Have you encountered the same problem?

    I have had the same problem. I think the tool will get better as Revit becomes a stronger modeler
