Hi Everyone,
Why is not possible to show what is weight per linear meter of a profile in a connection schedule for profile. The Connection family/assembly has a various components (bolts, plates, cleats, profiles), if i choose to filter schedule just to show stays (aka - fly brace) in schedule with following parameters: type, count, length, weight (per linear meter), and total weight, i am unable to get weight (per linear meter) - it leaves blank field (cell). Let us assume we have stays as EA 50X50X5 (grade 350) profile and it is known (not ultimate, but agreed/average/adopted/can be found) that its weight per linear meter is 3.48 kg/m', why then revit schedule is showing 7.2 % difference (volume of such profile is 0.000443 m3, which gives 7.855,53 density - yes it depends on alloying elements, but again it can be found for mild steel as market common used, revit calculates 7.326,32 desity) ? or why it doesn't have inside parameters (project/shared) as a fixed value, in other words how does it calculates in background (as hidden)?. Please if someone can provide help with this issue? . Just how parameter (MassperUNitLenght) works for framing schedule, it would be nice that is works for connection- profile schdule.
Thank you
