I have been creating some lightweight 2D sanitaryware on an ‘as required’ basis. I hope to upload to the Exchange whenever they are good-enough.
I have a query that someone may be able to help me on. Using the Plumbing Template I have drawn the Plan, Side elevation and Front elevations. This will work fine for WC’s, baths and pedestal wash-hand basins. However, if there is a inlaid or semi-recessed wash-hand basin the plan representation would be obscured by the vanity top (because the plan view will be located at floor level). Is there any way to elevate the plan image within my Plumbing Template so that it would appear on top of the vanity top (without also elevation the side and front views)?
BTW, all the families are built in Revit v.7 (version released in October).
There are several shared parameters that identify the manufacturer, model number, dimensions, etc.
The families file name conventions are:
Generic name: Manufacturer: model name: size (or model number): Blue Book page
Eg: WHB AS Sandringham Dorex 45cm [6-5-8].rfa
Generic name: WHB
Manufacturer: AS (AS=Armitage Shanks, I-S=Ideal Standard)
Model name: Sandringham Dorex (and then sometimes ‘Wall’ for wall mounted, ‘Ped’ for Pedestal)
Size (or model number): 45cm (Sometimes there is only one size option, in this case I haven’t noted the size but have given the model number, eg: E5540)
Blue Book page: Refers to Armitage Shanks Blue Book (May 04) UK
