Beam table not showing

Revit used to have a beam table that showed different beam sizes if you wanted to load in a beam family, the table still shows when loading steel columns but it doesn't show when loading steel beams, you have to manually create your own beam type. I'm using Revit 2020 and this never used to happen in Revit 2019. I'm wondering if anyone has noticed this aswell and has a solution to this.

Hi @emmanuelbee 

 

Which Family Library are you using? The reason you can't see the "Type Catalog" is because the .TXT file containing the Family Types is probably missing. Go look under C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\RVT [YOUR VERSION]\Libraries\[YOUR COUNTRY]\Structural Framing\Steel

 

Each Family File should be accompanied with a .TXT file of the same name containing a list of types. You can create this file if it's missing.
