Fabric area cutting form single sheet

Is there a way to make Revit combine individual fabric area sheets into one sheet (that is going to get cut in real life) in Structural fabric reinforcement schedule or any other schedule. For instace I have 3 sheets of 200x215 cm. So in real life they are going to be made form one 600x215 sheet cut in 3 parts (600x215cm is a standard dimension in my country). But in my schedule I have 3 600x215 sheets... I can also get a schedule showing 3x200x215 sheets but I dont know is there a way to make Revit combine them.

Hi,

 

this is a tricky one as there are several workarounds but not a definitive answer.

 

You could simply create an assembly of the 3 smaller fabric sheets and that would group them.

Simpler still would be to add a comment to the sheet family to let the reader know it’s cut from a larger sheet? And give it a different Type Mark to indicate this.

Finally you now have an option to create a Custom Fabric Sheet so you have some ability to create something bespoke but not sure if this is suitable for your needs but may be worth a look?
