Room Seperation

I cannot seem to create one large room as REVIT assumes its two rooms and wants to split them.

 

For example, I have a kitchen area in the same room as living/dining room and i need one overall area not two seperate ones.

 

How can I solve this?

It is not clear to me what exactly happens.

 

Do you have a room with dividing elements (e.g. walls) that you want to treat as a single room?

In that case select the dividing element and in the properties panel deselect "Room Bounding"

 

The following objects have room bounding properties:

Walls
Roofs
Floors
Ceilings
Columns
Curtain systems
Room separation lines
Building pads

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.

Did you make the whole model yourself or did somebody else also worked on the building?

 

I would expect that there is a room separation line inside the room.

With visibility/graphics settings it is possible that the separation line is there but hidden from view?

Room Separation Lines are in a sub-category of the "Lines" category named "<Room Separation>"

It might show up when using "Reveal Hidden Elements" (lightbulb at bottom of your view).

And/Or it might show up depending on your view range.

Hi,

Do you by any chance have room separation lines between them. Just wondering. If that is not the case, then what is the boundary of these rooms. Somehow I feel that you're problem is that one of you're room bounding elements is not connected properly and therefore there isn't even one room there, you can place as many as you want.

Revealing hidden elements was the solution.

 

As soon as i did i was able to see the room speerating line and then delete it.

 

Thank you for your help!

The issue is to with rooms, not spaces, and it's about not separating a large room into smaller rooms. It's the opposite and it was solved already.

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.
