Hello everybody,

I have a model steel from Revit and export to NWC then append to Navisworks. I want to find items follow "cut length" value in Revit. But I can't find correct all quantity of some steel object.

 

Example: as image attached: model has 46 C125x65x6 with cut length=2.542, but have two value in value column. When I find follow 1 value, result is 33 ( correct is 46).

Thank you. 

 

Not sure what would be the difference between the beams.. but if you see here, you will get two 2.542 in the selection list. When you add this condition, you will be all 46.

And the beams on right side hasn't any difference from the rest of the beams. They are created by the same family in revitissue3.PNG

Hi Yuri Kim,

 

Yesss, it's worked.

But you must choose the first and the last value in the list. If not it still not correct the quantity.

Thank you for your understanding and I really appreciate your help in resolving the problem !

Thanks so much.
