    Default Need exterior wall with cedar shingles

    I'm a newbie starting my first project with Revit after getting my feet wet with some tutorials. I need to model a Cape Cod house with natural cedar shingles. Does this wall family come with Revit? I wasn't able to find it. If not, can someone point me to one that I can download?

    Sorry for such a rookie question. I'm loving Revit and looking forward to being a bit higher on the learning curve.

    You make your own walls, they aren't families, just take the wall type that is closest, click edit>duplicate, then change the finish material from siding - lap to siding - shake. You'll need a shake surface pattern(I can't remember if there is one in the out of the box revit pat file.
