Door Not Reading Room on One Side

I have a few doors that are only reading one room in the schedule, not both rooms.  The line where the other room should be is blank.  I have checked the following:

 

  • There are no hidden room separator lines causing boundary issues
  • The door family is not the issue.  The same door family is used elsewhere without this issue and I tried swapping out door families in the issue areas with the same resulting issue.
  • All walls are to the floor and to the deck above.
  • The rooms not showing up in the schedule have the exact same limit and base offsets as those showing up in the schedule.
  • I have deleted the room and both replaced the same room and added a brand new room, both with the same result.

Has anyone run into this before?  I have seen this in a handful of instances in the past but was somehow to get things to work.  This time I can't get anything to work to show the missing room information.  I have had to manually place text on the sheet to fill in the information.  Not ideal.  Thank you.

Yes I dealt with this all the time. One way to overcome this is to use the room calculation point inside your door family. This will work if the door swing is set to one direction. If you have room that need to flip to other side, then you have to create new family and have the room calculation point to go from one side to another

If this doesn't work, then you have to use calculated value in the schedule to override the room value.

How thick are the walls?

The walls are the typical 5" walls used throughout the project.  I would prefer not creating new families just due having to activate the calculation point.  We are trying to standardize our doors and creating new ones just for this rare issue could muddy the waters.

Can you share the model?

Any chance the phase of the missing room is a prior phase or is in a linked model?

Are you using design options?
If you are using design options, is the schedule set to the same design option as the missing room?
