Seeing that the system inspector is capable of finding the critical path for ducts, and then breaking it down for further analysis in the pressure report, I wanted to ask if it's possible to somehow extract the information from the elements that fall on the critical path so that I can automatically input the relevant parameter data into my own static pressure calculations in MS Excel.
I am currently forced to create a new parameter in my duct families to split the duct systems into sections (akin to the Sections shown in the pressure report in Revit), and then *manually* keying in the data to break the system into sections. for ALL systems. as you can imagine, this is a really boring and tedious job, especially knowing that Revit can magically do that for me. My question is "how????" and "where can i find this info in my project?"
If i can find out how Revit does it, or how i can extract/sort my schedules using a filter for sections under the critical path for each system, my job would be so much easier. Any help?
