Revit - Angled Corner Mullion for Curtain Walls and Systems
We need the most commonly used corner mullion condition that occurs in buildings which is a mullion that is angled at the corner. This mullion will be set at 45 degrees to the corner at a 90 degree outside corner and at 135 degrees to the corner at 90 degree inside corner. This mullion should be adaptable to other wall corner angles. Please see attached image.
+ We also need an option to just place a 'normal' mullion on the corner (but rotated so it makes the connection between the two angles). This is important for situations where the corner is not acute.
Please add a chevron corner mullion type, and while your at it allow curtain panels to extend past the mullion if they don't intersect. With a system panel and a system panel, if the mullion is behind the panel, it allows it to continue past. However, as soon as you create a "custom mullion profile" using a rectangular mullion, it no longer continues past.
I would not ask for 45° mullion, just "bisector" mullion so one would fit all angles like the V mullions do.
Workaround like Bernhard's is fine for sketching or concept models but when you need real BIM models that can be used for quantity take offs or to generate cutting lists... it won't 😉
This workaround is still also not deal with the ability to make 45° "bissector" mullion ends around the panels at vertical & horizontal grid intersections !
It is possible to do an exterior corner at 45 degrees, but it bugs our for interior corners.
Furthermore, the exterior corners never joins properly and we need to disable join and fix them manually. For partial solution and bug documentation, see this post, message 6.
Since Revit is unable to do basic mullions properly and automatically, we have to do each corner manually and use generic models do interior corners. This is not a good solution and we are surprised that something so basic and common has not been addressed and resolved yet.
Yes, Curtain Wall Mullions are at all not very handy for me at least.
I would like to have the abbility to use the Mullion them self as a Shared Family, to be able to create longer and shorter Mullions. it is importend that the mullion is ongoing and not cutted down by the reference-lines on the curtain. I would like to get the over all lenght an total value of the mullions also
Much needed feature, also the system panels should follow the curtain wall profile geometry! This will make it so much better, and will avoid making all the custom families!
