Can we please have some cable basket families.

Just had engineers complaining we dont have any.

Containment is quite limited in 2013, is better than 2011 obviously but still a ways to go.

Just using tray and calling it basket is not good enough, basket has curved bends and a wire mesh not 45 angled bends and not metal plate.

Try searching on Autodesk Seek or visiting a manufacturer's website and see if they have any Revit families for download.

Nope cant find a decent working family. found basket but it is just a dumb block type family.

Also need cable traunking & Busbar trunking

You may have to model them and create the Families yourself. If needed, perhaps this Revit MEP Families Guide may help.

Ha. wish I had the time.

I will ask some engineers to see if any UK manufacturers are doing it.

Some are now coming on board wih other plant. so hopefully somebody will be.
