Brick Arch

[sethridge]

Trying to figure out how to array a mass element along an arc. I have basically created a mass element representing a standard brick but I don't understand how Revit array works at all. Any help would be much appreciated!

Select the item you want to array, choose the array command above, on the option bar above, select the radial array icon, drag the array center indicator to the center of your arc, choose the number of elements, select whether the angle you are going to give is for the second arrayed item or the last, and then graphically select or type in (on the options bar) the angle.

Which only works for true Roman arches, of course.

Elliptical, flat, gothic, jack arches, etc. all have to be done individual brick by individual brick (if you need it to render out correctly) or draw the individual mortar joints with model lines for elevation views.
