Wall Covering Family?

Is anyone aware of a wall covering family in Revit? I am thinking along the lines of .040", .060", and .090" FRP/Acrovyn/Inpro/Koroseal/Pawling plastic sheets, preferably in LOD 400 or 500. FRP would be under division 6 or 9, and the others that I listed would be under division 10. They are interior plastic sheets mounted with adhesive, divided by vinyl trim. I have searched just about every BIM object website, and have found nothing. I am actually pretty surprised that something as common among multiple manufacturers would just not exist.

 

Let me be clear - I am not just looking to apply a pattern or texture to a wall - I am looking for something that could eventually be used in production. The closest system that I would be looking for might be related to curtain wall in the way that it would operate - mullions would be the trim pieces (think Nudo trim).

 

I am still pretty new to how families work in general, but see the attached as my attempt at creating something really basic. I probably have no idea what I'm doing, but it'll give you an idea as to what I am attempting.

 

I am either looking for an existing family that covers the parameters here, or potentially help to build one out to an LOD that would be acceptable for fabrication (specifically for CNC routing of cut outs). I am willing to purchase something if this absolutely does not exist in its current form. Thanks!

I agree with you. It would be good to use curtain walls. Curtain walls are great cause you can set the grid rules. I think these curtain wall panels are very easy to model. Just find some basic tutorial on how to constrain the geometry with reference planes, then create and assign material parameters.

 

Maybe the joints on the corners of the wall will be different than the other. There are different ways to make the panel interchangeable, it could be by using some yes/no parameter or by nesting.... For example, you can use "if" statements in formulas. This will make the ref. plane move depending on the situation.
