is this one of the standard ASHRAE fittings? You may be better off to use a combination of the standard fittings since contractors can make them cheaper and you also have performace date for pressure drop etc.

 

If you create one out of thin air, you won't have that information, they may be expensive to make (the contractor may make them differently anyway... they have a mind of their own).

 

You always can create your own family if you really want a non-standard fitting.

 

I would use one of the double-wye fittings and just manipulate the angles and opening sizes to get something similar.

Our country always use this fitting, I am not sure that it's ASHREA standard, is it.

Anyway, I might need to create this one for Construction drawing.

Not sure what version you are using but, in Revit MEP 2012 these fittings are in the standard "Family" library supplied with Revit.  If you are in a model then select "Load Family" and the default location (depending whether you use metric or US. Standard measurements) should be where you start.  Just follow the folders down to the duct fittings.  You will find that there are two different types; one for 30 deg takeoff, and one for 45 deg. takeoff.

 

Hope this helps!

Thank you TB,

 

I work on 2014 version. but for your reply I just install 2012 version and update pack 2 done.

I am looking in standard families but I still not find Double wye like I  post.

Could you please give me that fitting name or folder path?

I am glad that this appears to be solved.  However, I would like to make one comment; the attached ".png" file shows a duct fitting that is only used as a last resort.  It is costly to make and difficult to balance, and prone to leaks.  You would be better off using two fittigs.  One 30 deg. and one at 45 deg.
