Revit - Centria Panel metal panel profiles

Hey,

 

I have modeled buildings trying different ways to get metal panel profiles into the model. This helps with accurate rendering and less Photoshop work.

 

some are WAY to heavy and cripple the models performance. I haven't tried sweeps but think this would also end up being very messy. I also don't think that sweeps work around a curve.

 

- what are you finding works best? centria has nothing on their site that ive seen.      -thanks in advance!

 

 

 

 

here are the types of panels that I am speaking of.....they are usually horizontal, but could also be vertical.

Centria's website has Revit curtainwall files

You need to log in to Centria's site to get to the revit files.

I've done R-panels and various standing-seam roof panels as sweeps, as curtain-wall panels, etc.

 

I conclusion is...

 

Don't bother modeling them. Create a layer in your wall that represents them and is the appropriate thickness. Give that layer a material having a model pattern surface with lines that approximate the panel ribs. But don't try to do EVERY line or else  your elevation views will just turn black with all the little lines so close together. With R-panel, for example, I just give it parallel lines every foot. You can try creating a bump map image for renders, but I've never bothered.

 

In details/sections, where necessary, I draw in the profile using detail lines or a detail component.

 

Of course, my philosophy here is not adequate for perfect renders, but is superior in every other way.

The problem with using custom panels is that you cannot you them for non-rectangular grid but I am sure you are aware of that.

 

Unless you do close-up renderings all the times then using material with surface model patterns combine with image textures or procedural relief/reveal bumpmaps  should be more than adequate.

Jason,

 

We are doing a 45 story building in NYC with Centria panels. About 40 stories and to main walls are all Centria panels, 3" formawall (vertical) and 9 stories of 3" metalwrap panels horizontal. We used the curtainwall tool and created full panel families that stretch to the curtain grids automatically. It has worked well. Each panel has the skin as represented from Centria as one extrusion and then the insulation is another extrusion. We have used sweeps in other families where panels turned corners. e have an excellent representation of the building in full 3d revit style.

Can you post a model?

We’ve tried different things but they all seem to make the model very heavy.

Thanks!

Do you mind posting a family, we struggled with this as well.

How did you create the individual panel families from the Centria models?
