Carving in a building

[moeininaghanir]

Where are my Revit gurus at?

I appreciate any advice on how to create a concave shape like the sketch below. I am trying to cut the eclipse from the solid rectangular but for some reseaon in does not cut. I have also tried to carve by selecting "Create a void and it does not work.

I'm not sure this is what you want...

This video really helps! I greatly appreciate it!

I was able to create the form, but Revit doesn't let me assign a storefront. It deletes the wall and gives me this error. Should we create a special storefront family for this?

use a Curtain System

I followed what you are showing, but it gave me this message. Then I tried to modify the "divide surface" and select a pattern, but it does not look like what you are demonstrating. Could you tell what the issue is?

I understand that we are using different units, but the current system is like revolving around a center. Do you know how to change the pattern so I will have them vertically?

The axis of revolution has to be horizontal and has not to penetrate the volume projection.... like in my screenshot.

Then , use Curtain System command.
