Conduit Bend Radius

[ajtrahan]

I am having a problem using conduits and getting the radius to change and display properly. I am using the RMC Conduit without fittings and when there is a bend in the conduit Revit places a Conduit Elbow without fittings RMC Standard. I then select the elbow and change the radius but it doesn't update graphically.

Another user in our office does the same thing I am doing and using the same families and he can get it to display correctly. See attached.

Any thoughts or workarounds?

I am new to Revit MEP but know Revit Architecture.

Thanks,
Jason

The second screen shot shows that the path to the lookup tables is incorrect. Lookups used to only affect pipe fittings, but starting in RMEP 2011, they became responsible for the conduit fittings as well. Check your file path in the Revit.ini

Also, the bend radius is controlled via "Electrical Settings." Under Conduit Settings, click "Size" and you will be able to adjust the bend radius for each conduit type.

Thanks. The path was incorrect.
