Bespoke Brick Pattern

[Anonymous]

I am trying to create a new pattern for a bespoke brick, see attached:

brick: 218x65mm

vertical joint: 10.18mm

horizontal joint: 10mm

Help appreciated.

This should work for you, for the brick outlines.  Did you want the diagonal crosshatch as well?

[The forum was not accepting my reply with a PAT file attached, so I put it in a ZIP file.]

Here you go: https://pattycake.io/pat/YlyAYAk5XbM

Just click download at the top. It's made with one of our calculators, so you can adjust the spacing and everything then redownload if you need to adjust for whatever reason.

Cheers.

Woops, hadn't refreshed and didn't see your reply. Sorry.

You solved the upload correctly --- I learned this too from user @pendean ... ""pat" is the Windows screensaver file extension too, and can be malicious if desired to be so: most of us simply ZIP when sharing them around here."

no diagonal crosshatch, thanks

Why does the web generator create a pattern with 8 elements, doubling its complexity compared with David's ability to create the same fill arrangement with four?  

HatchKit also manages with four within your Revit project -  no web access required :
