Custom elevators

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi,

 

I am fairly new to revit, and trying to model a multi story commerical building.  I need to model a series of elevators with custom dimensions, however there are no options for me to edit the elevators in the standard REVIT families.  Does anyone know how I can model elevators in a more specified manner?

 

Thanks,

Gene

you can have a try with : DigiPara Elevatorarchitect

 

 

It is a free pluggin for Revit made by Germans and you can find it through Exchange Applications...http://www.digipara.com/

You have there a data base for lifts and a seria of other instruments ....Unfortunately . at least for R2014 it doesn'cut the walls to insert the doors of the lift....

Just make a door family that has a plan representation of the elevator cab.  No need to model the actual elevator cab separate from the door.
