Sheet metal and other in Revit 3D families.

Hello, I'm looking for these elements in 3D. Are they in Revit?
Revit allows me to insert this sheet metal in 2d as a detail drawing, loading the family.

I would like to insert the same elements, but in 3d, to make an explosion of the structure.

Thanks.

Simple enough to model. I would model one rib as a Mullion and use it in a Sloped Glazing or Curtain Wall.

It should be an internal member of the slab, parallel to the ground.

The curtain wall is an external element.

I don't understand your reply. "Internal" & "External" are just labels. I just told you to Model them and suggested how I would do it. You could model the rib as Structural Framing and array it in a Beam System too. Whatever.

Okay. I'll try tomorrow.

Thank you.
