Problems with room bounding walls.

I go to highlight room bounding objects and find that most of my walls do not seem to count as room bounding objects. 

 

I'm wondering why this is: what could make the room bounding algorithm ignore these walls? 

These walls go to the appropriate height and I've reset their profiles.  

If I delete these walls and redraw them, the new walls seem to become room bounding once again.

Check the base offset see if they are 0. Are there any rectangular openings?

Nope, that's the first thing I checked. No openings and no offsets either at base or top.

This could be the computation height of the level.

Check if your room is hosted in the correct level.

Check computation height of the level.

Check height of the room and base offset.

 

I hope this helps

What is the computation height of the level?

Hello,

The computation height is a property of the levels that tells revit where do you want to cut the room to calculate the room area.
