How to make a family that 'joins' like wall families

Hello,

I need to make a family that behaves like a wall- category family in terms of joining to other walls.

Im designing a warehouse and need to draw route for Pallet trucks. The route has safety zones on the sides. I would like the route family to join nicely with other routes. I don't want to use the wall family as this is not a route.

Please see the attached screenshot.

What family Category should I use?

Hi,

Use walls, why not. It's okay that walls are used not only to create walls. 

It will be necessary to uncheck the "Room Bounding".

you could use the Mass tool to create the routs and then use the Join tool to connect them?

I forgot to add: In our projects, it is importand for the families to have correct category from database point of view. Dynamo is controlling visibility an sometimes we have to filter by family category

There is no specific family for routes! So the first question is; how did you model the route?

 

If you want to use compund/system families, you could model the routes using a Floor element and the safety zones as Floor as well...based on how you structure the layers they will join 

 

  1. Alternatively you can use a Line based generic model
  2. Railing could also be an option depending on what you are modeling there...it is not really clear what that is in the attached images which you posted

Change the Dynamo script to skip some types of walls - this is not a big problem. Using categories strictly for their intended purpose in Revit is not the best practice.

You can model the route in place with sweep(s) and profile including those "air" layer on the sides for the zones if you associate material to that, you can assign this to the category you want to use. And also sub-category to control visibility/lineweight etc.
