Curved drop ceilings

[Michelle C]

How do I curve a drop ceiling with the intended material of wood? Radius is roughly 52'.

Thanks.

plan curve? edit the sketch, draw 52' arc radius as required. if the curve
required is in section an in-place family may be a better solution (extruded
solid along a path)
Wood ceiling? try the paint bucket tool and select the ceiling.

Please post more detail of your specific condition as you question is
general.

Thank you Brian. I now understand why my request was not specific enough. Yes, the curve is for the profile, not the Plan view. I am fairly new to Revit, therefore I do not know what an "in-place family" is. I understand the concept of extruded solid along a path, I just don't know how to make it so I may draw the profile. Am I still trying to use the "ceiling" command?

Thanks again Brian!

Under the model tab, click create, then select ceiling, then you will enter a sketch mode allowing you to create complex ceilings using extrude, sweeps, blends etc.
