I want to make a tube that can connect to my model because any of the other shapes and items that was included in the downloaded model can't be modified the way I want to.
I want to make a cylindrical tube like in this image that already was done in the model.
To make a canopy for the car wash like this, unless there is already ones like these I can download it would save me from model make it in revit.

I only see these options in the model I have for this one.
If you ant to model it in the family then use Sweep. If you want the actual structural steel tube then model it in project.
There's a bunch of ways to approach. Depends on your skill level. You could model it with components that it will be constructed with. In this case, Structural Framing components. Easy enough to do. Just pick the Structural Framing Component you want to use from the OOTB Library and use the Beam tool with 3D Snapping and Pick Lines to select the edge of a curved Mass Form. The Beam will follow the edge to create the shape. Pretty painless really. Do you know how to create Mass Forms? That's the prerequisite skill you need to use this approach.
I have not used sweep before how do you do that to make the cylindrical tube?
You know, there's a butt-load of videos on line that can teach you. You ought to use Google to locate them.
You know, FWIW, I might model that support in a Truss Template. Be super easy to do. Doing it that way would allow me to swap out the Top, Bottom and Web members more efficiently in the Project. There is plenty of differently sized HHS Rounds in the OOTB Content Library (under Structural Framing) to choose from. No need to reinvent the wheel.
