A couple of questions

Hi All.

I have only been using Revit for 2 months and just have a couple of
questions to ask.

- How do you put a gutter onto a sloped fascia, IS IT POSSIBLE?
- When doing a project of multi unit development how do you guys (and girls)
go about setting it up, ie. do you draw all the units in the on project or
do you draw them in there on different project. ( hope that made sense)
- Does anyone know where I can get a tapered column from.

Thankyou Chris Kendall.

Not sure why you want a gutter on a sloped fascia? But. it's possible with
an in-place family sweep, but not with the Roof Edge tools.

Multi-unit development, meaning separate buildings on a site, or meaning
separate units assembled to make a building? If separate buildings, then
separate files, linked together into the site plan. If multi-units, then
one building all in one file.

You can make a tapered column using a Blend. Or you can check sources such
as www.revitcity.com

it is possible with the gutter tool, you place it, then pick on it and under its properties there is a rotation angle you can set.

Well that rotates the gutter from vertical about the length of its axis. I
thought the posting might be in regard to a rake condition where the fascia
is traveling up with the slope of a roof. The example of where you would do
this is a membrane roof (flat) which has one edge sloping up. We always had
this condition at the angled loading dock bays on our supermarkets.The back
edge of the roof was at a constant height and the structure sloped up from
there. The loading docks were notched in at the end of the building and the
angled wall had a slight slope to it. We always had a gutter here that went
back to the main gutter. You can't do that in Revit with a Revit gutter. You
have to resort to an in-place sweep.
