You will need to know the total linear feet of the shape.

2 parts:

a. the arc/semi-circle

b. the straight segment

Add up the total linear feet of the semi-circular and straight segments.Then divide the total by the number of equal segements required. You can then determine the length of each "equal" segment.

Draw lines from the center of the arc. Then place arc length dimensions on the arc
where the lines intersect the arc. The total of the arc lengths plus the straight segment
must equal the total linear length.

does this help?

cheers.....

Export to AutoCAD.
Use the measure or divide command as need. Use a block as a marker to make it simpler to see in Revit.
Link into Revit and use the split tool at the markers.
