Is there any way to create this schedule (arc lengths, angles, radii)

I have floor pads for outdoor areas & walks with curved alignments & edges. However, I'm willing to use any component that can help create the attached schedule so I don't have to type each dimension manually. Is there any way to accomplish this?

If by schedule you mean a Revit schedule of floors (in your case) or some other element, then no, not directly as those values are not all available to schedules. You'd probably need to check out Dynamo to see if you can extract the values you want, put them in Excel and then import the result into Revit.

 

Personally, I think actual dimensions in a plan would be more useful in the context of a drawing versus looking at a plan and referring to a schedule, back and forth...but then I don't have all the information you have.

as Steve says , you can use Dynamo..

Attached you can see a possible way to do it.....

Export to DWG and create a Data extraction table.

@SteveKStafford: Agreed. However, most of our plans call for these types of items to be scheduled. It would be good if this was possible. What about a model line family with parameters that report? I just made one with a line but haven't gotten round to see if I can schedule it. 

 

@constantin.stroescu: This may be the route I ultimately go. Thank you.  

 

@ToanDN: Thank you. I was hoping to transition out of CAD altogether. That is what was done in the past, data extraction tables etc and it was very cumbersome. Perhaps dynamo or families can save the day.

Funny how in this case, AutoCad has an easier workflow for obtaining "information/data" than Revit. Lachender Smiley

Best of luck to the Dynamo approach.

 

I personally think using Data Extraction table is not that cumbersome:

 

- Create a view with only the lines/arcs visible

- Export to DWG (A)

- Create a blank DWG (B) in AutoCAD, run Data Extraction and choose external source, point to (A) - you don't even need to XREF it in if I remember correctly

- Add applicable fields

- Set it to output to Excel and/or as an AutoCAD table

- When the Revit model changed, just re-export overwrite (A), open (B) and refresh Data Extraction

@ToanDN: Thanks for the detailed response. I'm very well versed in data extraction tool. It's not that useful after a certain point... the time spent going through the wizard/export/import is not much of an improvement over typing it out manually which is too bad because in 2018 we should be able to extract dimensions of components into schedules without so much effort... :neutrales_Gesicht:  I'm going to look into automating it with Dynamo if I can. Thanks anyway!

A line based family isn't going to report its start and end coordinates without the API (Dynamo). In the project you could just place Spot Coordinate annotation but it's not going to show up in your schedule. The arc and length can be calculated and reported via Shared Parameters though.

 

Can a Data Extraction Table just be linked into Revit (supported element)? I never bothered to try that myself yet...maybe I will now :leicht_lächelndes_Gesicht:

A Data Extraction table can be linked into a Legend or a Drafting view in Revit. Or the output Excel table can be brought into a schedule in Revit via Dynamo or some add-in.

Interesting... I'd like to explore it purely with dynamo (perhaps cvs link). Do you guys think it's possible?
