Autodesk Revit 2010 – Parametric Louver System Part 2

Software: Autodesk Revit Architecture 2010

Description: In this Autodesk Revit Architecture 2010 video tutorial, we will create a line based family to host the louver family. This louver system will be embedded in a curtain wall family by arraying generic model component family that is within a lined based family.  From there we’ll create shared parameters to drive the model from a schedule. This is the first of a series of videos that will explain the the process of creating parametric families within Revit.

Topics Covered:

  • Creating Generic Model Family
  • Arraying components
  • Nesting components in a curtain wall family
  • Creating shared parameters and relationships
  • Driving parameters from a schedule

    i’m trying to do a louver in the horizontal direction and i tried doing it exactly how you did it, only in the opposite direction and when i go to change the width of the louver, they don’t lineup straight up and down, they kind of splay out a few inches from the one below it, its pretty strange. any clue what im doing wrong?

    Hi,

    One of the best tutorials I’ve seen, thanks.

    Am doing a louver window, louvers are horizontal, and angled 45 degrees to shield from sun/rain. How do you constrain the array end - with the rectangular louver profile at an angle to ref planes the align tool can’t grab onto anything.

    Thanks,
    Fred
