hi
i'm an architect and recently i'm trying to work with revit...
i need to know if there is any tutorial that can help me understand how to develope building skin with slanted walls.
i build the model before with sketchup and it was pretty easy doing it.... now i'm trying to create a preciese model with revit but it seems that there is no tools for doing such a thing!
1- how to work easely with mass design! in order ro move one vetrex you need to be scientist and so on....
2- how to apply curtain walls to the mass when the walls are slanted ! only concrete walls works!? and even then the walls doesn't join well
3- how to create paneling with a specific shap and varient moduls ! see the attached render
its little bit frustrating......please help ![]()
i've attached one facade that includes only one slanted wall....but other facades had many triangular slanted surfaces and it gets complicated.
this wasn't done with revit ofcourse !
please help
this is the revit model under construction !
thanks in advance

Hello
you juste make a simple curtian wall and modify the angle of on direction, see the attached image, let me know if this is what you need.
In Revit, these volumes need to start with a family (generic model template, or mass template). You start with a basic volume and then select the vertices or edges and move them. When the form is complicated what I do is points, lines and surfaces, instead of volumes. That is easier and more deficient.
Autodesk has some very brief tutorials about this in their website. Also, there are many videos in Youtube about this. And, no, you don't need to be a scientist to move a vertex, but yes, modeling in Revit is not not as simple as it is in Sketchup, but it all depends on skills. It's the same as if someone who is not familiar with Sketchup is assigned to do the same.
If you are more comfortable with Sketchup you could try Autodesk Formit, which is very similar. There, you can create a file with the form, and then open that file in Revit for doing your construction documents.
To do a slanted curtain wall, you need...
1) ...to create slanted face, which can be done in a mass family, or a generic model adaptive family, or an in-place mass. Basically, a surface created with two lines.
2) ...to use the curtain system tool, selecting the slanted face in the project, or... divide a surface in the family, and apply a pattern-based family to the divided surface (this is in case you have non rectangular panels in the curtain wall).
You can start by reading the articles in the Help documents inside Revit, looking for the term "Curtain System".
