So I'm a little late to the party here, as I've been using Revit 2022 on some long running projects and just jumped to Revit 2024, and I see this is a change that occurred in 2023.

 

As always, when a changes is made, there are some unintended changes that occur downstream. In this case, what I notice is that when I route my fabrication pipe using multi-point routing, the elevation is the bottom of the pipe, and not the insulation. So if I route 1" pipe with 1" insulation at 10'aff, my pipe is at 10', but the bottom of insulation is at 9'11".

 

In Revit 2022, if I had 1" pipe with 1" insulation, I could could route my pipe at 10'aff and know that the pipe is at 10'-1" and the bottom of insulation is 10'.

 

The number that matters is bottom of insulation. When you are routing pipe, you may have several different pipe diameters on the same pipe rack with different insulation thicknesses. They still all need to be at the same bottom of pipe elevation (including any insulation).

 

I'm hoping I'm not the first person to notice this and that there's just a toggle/parameter somewhere to adjust so that multi-point routing includes bottom of insulation when selecting elevation.

 

If not, I'm hoping one can be added sooner than later.
