Defining The Stacked Wall Structure - Autodesk 24000-000000-9860 - Revit Architecture - PC User Manual

Specifying Instance Parameters of Subwalls
When you define the structure of the stacked wall type, you indirectly change instance parameters of the
individual subwalls that compose the stacked wall. That is, when you specify the height, offset, top, and
base of the stacked wall, you are also specifying Unconnected Height, Location Line Offset, Top Extension
Distance, and Base Extension Distance, respectively, of the subwalls. The only instance parameters you can
directly specify for subwalls are Room Bounding and Structural Usage; values for the remainder are inherited
from the stacked wall type and are read-only.

Defining the Stacked Wall Structure

You can make various changes to a stacked wall to change its structure:
You can add or delete walls.
You can move subwalls up or down the height of the stacked wall.
You can define a reference line for the entire stacked wall, and then offset each subwall from that reference
line.
IMPORTANT Define the structure of vertically stacked walls before placing any instances in the project. Height
conflicts may occur when previously placed instances are lower than the defined height of the type.
To define the structure of a stacked wall:
1 Access the properties of a vertically stacked wall.
For example, in the Project Browser, under Families
wall type, and click Properties. Alternatively, if you have placed a stacked wall in the project,
select it in the drawing area and click
2 If necessary, click Edit/New to open the Type Properties dialog.
