need help with fabrication strut hangers in revit

AllstarMechanicalGroup — Mon, 07 May 2018 15:18:53 GMT

Hi hope i'm right here.

we using fabrication in Revit for design and pretty much everything works great, BUT for some reason i can't place fabrication strut hangers in Revit over multiple pipes.

I've seen videos were they have done it, but i can't. I can't drag one side of the strut and pull it to the other end of my pipe run.

please help.

Thank you,

Matthias

In plan view, there should be a Node on each rod, grab the node and stretch the unistrut.

Hi,

yes I've seen this, but i don't have this. I can't stretch it. The reason is somewhere in my cad mep set up, but can't find it.

I am guessing you are using the new CID patterns for the hangers. There is a few bugs with them and this is one of them. You might want to try the old 838 pattern and see if you get anything different.
