Room Columns are not being identified

Hi All,

 

So when I have columns running from base level to the 2nd level of my building. I notice that if I were to snap walls to either sides of my column. I do not get a room. I need to run my walls through the column, in order for revit to recognize that area as a room. Any reasons why this is happening?

Are the columns checked as Room Bounding on the Properties panel?

Yes they are. I have attached a screenshot. Note how there are walls on either side of the column, but the room consideration goes beyond that,

There seem to be no bounding element to split the room...

  • is the wall checked as bounding
  • Can you cut a section through the wall and check wall base constraint of the wall?? see if it has offset from floor/level

That fixed it! My constraints for the wall were not correct. Great! Thanks for your help.
