Family: Aluminium Extrusion Profile cut out in an angle (miter) + Parameter for changing height/length ?

Hi there,

is there a way to create an aluminium profile/frame with parameters but one which I can change the cut out angle at the end? I mean something like the miter connection between beams.


It's for creating a parameter family for noise barriers which need to be adjusted differently in every project. So I would like to create a template for a family with all the parameters. For this type I actually need 2 parameters.
One for the length (or height) of the profile/frame and one for the cut out angle at the end.
What family template would be the most suitable for this?

 

I've attached a screenshot to give you an idea of what I would like to create.
The arrows inside the planes would be the parameter for the angle I would have to adjust.

The workarouond for now is to cut it out with a void but that's not exactly the best solution since you need to do this every time in every corner AND attach them (voids) to the same parameter line as the profile/frame to change the height and length.

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you all!

George
