I'm halfway with designing this column, except I'm having trouble with the curvature of the column archs. Can this only be done using a structural-based program? Would be awesome to design this in Revit. Could someone mimic this and lead me through the steps?

Hi @Anonymous
This Revit Structure tutorial shows how to place a slanted structural column in your architectural drawing and change the height and angle.
Meanwhile, while I do some testing on my own, let's throw out this open challenge to the community to mimic this design.

@Anonymous Also check out this post HERE by @Alfredo_Medina
Some of the suggested tips are - design by sweep profile, beam by sketch process etc.

I created this with the 'blend' tool. Yet it seems curvature isn't an option.
Try modelling this with a conceptual mass.
Off the top of my head - I would split the triangle into half,
model the column as a Sweep,
constrain with parameters,
nest into a structural framing family,
associate parameters
and mirror.
The beam would need to be a separate entity, because Revit does not like curves in two directions. Maybe a modeled in place Sweep going all around the building?
Here's an example of a conceptual mass.
It's not exactly how yours looks, but you'll get an idea of how it's modelled.
I think it can be done in 3 pieces, like this:
For making "A", you need a path with the curves and angles, and a profile, something like this:
For making "C", you need to draw boundaries for bottom and top, something like this:
Then, define category, material, load the family into a project, repeat it, add beams, etc...
@Kimtaurus can you give idiot-proof directions please?
@Alfredo_Medina awesome!
1. Draw reference lines for the profile to sweep along.
2. Draw the profile on the reference plane that's at the end of the reference line.
3. Copy-mirror the sweep
4. Add voids to cut away the top and bottom to get horizontal endings.
@Kimtaurus - So the procedure is the same in the conceptual modeling environment?
For not to complex shapes it is similar
When the the sweep has more than 2 profiles, conceptual mass (or adaptive components) work better. You can add profiles to the mass/sweep and edit them individually.
Wow- this is an interesting thread! Thanks for the cool tips and illustrations @Alfredo_Medina, @Sahay_R and @Kimtaurus
We will be having more open challenges for complex modeling and see how we can best use Revit tools to achieve this.
