Structural Column visibility

[alex60]

Hi all, I am doing a five stories building and when ad the structural column with  concrete cast in place material, the representation in plan view does not cover the block hatch of the wall. Please see attached image to see my problem. I have read all the help about structural columns and did not find any solution.

Thanks in advance, Alex

It looks like you are in Visual Style : Wireframe....if so, change it to Hidden Lines..

Hi Constantin, the attached image was done with hidden lines visual style. I was searching this discussion group and that question is done since 2008, but there is not answer to that problem.

Thanks Alex

No problem here. I simply put the column interesecting the wall, without doing anything else:

Hi Alfredo, I know that when you insert the column it wins the wall, but if you repeat the column, the situation changes and some columns are over the walls and others not. The literature says that the material must be set to Concrete or Precast, and the Revit standard columns have that parameter right.

Thanks, alex

It happens it once or twice to me too and I solved it forcing Join.

I have selected the column >Join Geometry > selct the column and the wall....in those cases the situation was repaired....hope it will function to you too....
