Asymmetrical corner window

lorena_dantas — Thu, 19 Oct 2023 16:04:50 GMT

I have a problem with a different sill height corner window. The second fixed panel does't cut the wall despite the fact I've modelled a void form.

I can not cut the host with the same void because the sill heights between panels are different.

Do you have any suggestion to fix this issue?

Thanks!

It's not difficult if you model this with 2 elements, instead of trying to make it with one.

To cut two walls with one window, do not cut the host wall with the void in the family. Instead, set the family to cut with void when loaded and use Cut geometry to manually cut the two walls with the window in the project.

Have you look at sample from Revitcity? The window family itself use large void so it will cut into the perpendicular wall. Use that logic and see if this works with your family.

I can not use the same void because they've different sill height.

Try making two Voids in the family, each one with different Sill Height. Then use the principle from Toan.. Cut when loaded.

Did you try adjusting the Void inside the interior

Also, maybe try disjoining these two walls if there is any change.
