CMU Wall with stacked wall and running bond with wall punctures

Hi everyone,

 

I was designing a wall which has stacked wall and have running bond in the small areal of the wall with gaps in it. 

Any help with how to draw this in revit?

I am attaching the photo below which was done in sketchup

I would split face ti change the material of the entire wall area, then create Opening family and place in that area on the wall.

I'd use a "window" family for that.

Alternatively, you could create a cut-out and apply it to a new material, use "Split Face" or just draw a new wall over the top and use it to "Cut Geometry" out of the old one.

Cut-outs are created from a Black and White image applied to the material, where Black is Void and White is solid.

You can learn about cut-outs on AKN here, Cutouts Map

The problem with it is that when I having the applying the material I cannot see the block since, its the echelon CMU masonary, I don't know how to show them as blocks seperately

I tried doing that but in between I cannot get clear blocks

The blocks are defined by where you place the holes.  Anyways, another approach is using a curtain wall and alternate the panels with Empty panel and Concrete panel.

Not sure I understand. Are you saying the design intent is to have clear glass blocks embedded in the wall (represented by those red rectangles in your screenshot).   If so, apply a transparent material to geometry representing the block. Not different than applying glass material to the "glass" geometry in a OOTB  Window Family.

This was exactly what I was looking for!

 

Thank you very much!

Really Helpful solution!

 

This is what was happening when I cut in the prfile

 

The thing that you werCapture.PNGe saying was not working out and I am attaching the picture below

If you build a wall-based Family, like a Window, and use a Void Cut in lieu of and Opening Cut, you can control the depth of the Cut Opening in the Wall. You don't have to penetrate the Wall fully.

The red that you see is just a small board in the back which is not significant in any changes in the design.

The design intent was to have a stacked block and running bond of a small chunk of space with wall punctures.

Got it.  You threw me when you said "I cannot get clear blocks".   Sounds like strategically placed and sized Openings would do the trick then -- if you want them actually modeled.

What does that mean, strategically placed and sized opening.?

I found that cut out method will be helpful.

If you are just looking for a Rendering Appearance of the Openings, then the Cutout method works.  I was thinking that you wanted to actually model the wall and the penetrations -- which look to be arranged in a pattern, and be of different sizes (e.g.  strategically placed and sized).

It comes down to matching the size of the curtain wall and grids with your material pattern.
