Kicker Bracing: What does Revit think it means

[matthewumberger]

I have been searching for any information on Kicker Bracing. I think of Kicker Bracing as synonymous with bottom chord bracing, but it doesn't seem to work that way. Revit Help has no information about different bracing types. Any resources on this subject would be appreciated.

As far as I know, "Kicker Bracing" also known as "Knee Brace" is simply "vertical bracing" in the Revit world, and is placed on a framing elevation associated with a grid line.
