How to vertically rotate steel structure

mnBNLP9 · ‎07-08-2025

Hello,

I'm modeling the steel structure of a curved staircase, and I would like to rotate a portion of it (between landings) vertically, while keeping all elements unchanged— no automatic adjustments to length or connections.
I've tried grouping the elements and also using linked Revit models, but I couldn't make it work.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

It will depend on if it is constrained to levels etc. you should to be able to rotate in an Elevation/Section as long as the workplane is set to this view?

Have you trued Mirroring instead then just moving it down or assigning an offset to the level?
