Quarter of an aperture in a wall.

[Aleksandr Sett]

How correctly to construct a quarter of an aperture in a wall? With display in 3D. In ADT it " wall opening endcap ". Prompt please.

Can you illustrate? - I'm dense - I don't follow..

I suspect this belongs in the "general" forum?

willbeone, this forum is for "real life" construction discussion. Revit-specific questions belong in the "general" revit forum.

And sorry that I can't answer as I do not understand your goal, either!

Can you post an example of what you mean by Aperture?

to make cut out shapes in a wall you would use a VOID, in a FAMILY and use the CUT GEOMETRY command.

Sounds to me like an issue of wall wraps. If you have an aperture in a wall, an opening, you can control the end caps of the wall at the opening with the "wraps" setting in the wall properties. When you edit the structure of a wall you can set which layers wrap over the end and which stop short.

You mean an aperture that is a whole entirety but only cuts one quarter the depth of the wall?

You could use an inplace family with a void that cuts the wall - this should be fairly straightforward tutorial stuff - or if the pattern repeats you could use a wall hosted family doing the same thing - again pretty much straight from the tutorials.

do you mean this?
Just guessing..
same window family, done with voids

I’m an old hat with AutoDesk products Acad and ADT but relatively new to Revit, so still going through a teething period. I am ecstatic about what I see Revit can do with seemingly les or little effort. One thing that bothered me was cavity walls and how elements display with the open sides. When I saw your representation I was thrilled. Can you please tell me how it is done? Much appreciated.

Thanks.
I shall try to understand.
If it is possible send an example of family.

Bluegreen,
Welcome aboard. In your wall definitions, (when you edit how a wall is constructed), right below the listing of materials to make up your wall is a table of "default wrappings". This is where you select how Revit is to treat openings and the end of walls. Enjoy..

It should be in your mailbox

Willbeone,

Your English is good.(My Russian is Ochin Blowho -and do not know Ukranian) When you post a message you have use advanced posting to add an attachment. After you select the window to post a quick message, select the button on the bottom that says "Go Advanced" . Under "Additional Options" Select "Attach Files".

Look result of your help.
