Hello everyone, how do you create a canopy (4' wide and 40' long) in Revit on a two story building between the first floor and second floor that wraps around the building?

Canopy?  Like fabric?  Sounds like a job for an Adaptive Points driven family.  

 

Can you post a picture of the construct?

You can create it as a roof (sloped glazing) and edit the sloped glazing type to what you need. Much like a curtain wall but horizontal.
