Hi everyone. I don't ask a lot of questions, and please forgive me if these questions have been posed before, but I have done my best to make sure this is a unique series of questions. As implied, this is a multi-part cry for help.
1. I have view filters set up to show fire rating on certain walls. I have been instructed to show fire rating on a Concrete wall that already has a fill pattern....meaning it needs to show both, the fill pattern for the Concrete AND the Fire Rating. Is this possible?
Set the wall's Coarse scale pattern to indicate Fire rating. Duplicate the view, hide everything except for walls, and override the Cut pattern under VG to show concrete, change the view to Wireframe. Overlay two views on Sheet.
2. This is a Renovation project, and there are a series of walls that are not being demolished, but will have a fire rating added to them. The walls are not getting stripped to the studs, but will have Gyp added to them. What would be the best way to approach this without "demo'ing" the entire wall in revit?
Duplicate the wall type so that you can add teh fire tape with out affecting the other existing walls of the same type. Create Parts from the existing wall and assign the layers to be demolished, set the view to show Parts and they look correct on demo plans without the Fire tape pattern. On new plans should set to Show originals, phase filter = Show complete to show the Fire rating on the existing walls, create a filter to change the graphics of the untouched existing wall to match existing condition (halftone or whatever). Note that you cannot use Phase filter override to display the existing because it will make the existing walls with new fire tape look incorrect.
I'm struggling to come up with good solutions!
Thank you in advance for any response!!
