Don't worry Dimitris.. your pictures don't seem 'strange' at all and -yes-
surely you can make them in Revit and -yes- once you get the hang of it
you'll be faster then doing it in Solid modelling for sure.
pic 1 - you could make this through a wallbased family [either window or
generic, this does not really matter, only when placing the object windows
will come from the window button and generic families will come from the
component button.. also in the sheets they will show up slightly
different] - just make an opening, make a frame in the wall [sweep], make a
frame [partial sweep] on the surface of the wall [for this set your
workingplane to the surface], add the underpart as an extrusion - done -
place it.. maybe make it parametric in size and re-use it in the project..
pic 2 - so easy.. not even worth mentioning
pic 5 - somewhat similar to pic 1 - use extrusions locked on equal distances
instead...
pic 6 - if you can draw the profile in 2D [surely very easy] you can add
this as a roofbases sweep.
pic 7 - make this as a wall, edit profile - draw the 'staired' profile -
accept ... then just add the fence on top, put it on the lowest level, it
won't matter that the iron will stick in the wall, you wouldn't be able to
see that.
for any more questions please refer to AUGI - you will receive lots of good
feedback from Revit-pro's all over the world.
