| Revit Families |
| |
| Revit families mean pre- made reusable objects compilation with various parameters & similar visual graphical representation with engineering precision applicable to an entire class or group (Generic). These may be called blocks, components or families. These families are very useful for the firms who always search for the custom or manufacturer specific content. Adopting the Revit platform these firms enable to fulfill their needs. Revit families not only contain physical representation of their products but also include specific identity & engineering data that are critical for the building. All models are characterized by family type under the discretion of the provider, stemming from a multitude of categories & manufacturers. |

SLIDE DOOR SYSTEM |
For example, a Revit door family also offers a variety of sizes. These are known as Types. Revit’s door family template offers a starting point for creating a simplified series of door families for your company using nesting. Revit Family produces schedules, determine LEED ratings, lower building costs, and specify products from directly within your model. |
Revit families produce schedules & determine LEED ratings, lower building costs & specify products directly in your model.
Revit family includes content in 3D & 2D Revit, 3D dwg & 3 ds Max file formats. Pinnacle CAD provides you a high quality modeling service ensuring your Revit components are built intelligently & practically with functionality in mind. Our fully parametric families contain information/performance model. The entire real world product needed to run calculation analysis & simulation. There is a built library that is included in revit installation. You can modify anything of your liking. We can also build families from existing drawing files & manufacturers’ cut sheets.
Revit utilizes parametrics to control objects through a series of formulas & input fields. We ensure that your products will be evaluated carefully & most efficiently before modeling.
If the omponents are over designed they can slow down your PC performance & your productivity; if they are under designed they don’t provide you the functions you need. Finding a balance between practicality & functionality we are ready to deliver you a range of high quality Revit components for a fraction of the price of modeling.

| Family Types |
| There are two over-arching methods for creating families in Revit. |
| |
| System families |
TRIDENT |
It consists of limited set of types like walls, roofs, ceiling, stairs, railings, ramps, mullions, curtain panels and topography surfaces. Some predefined types are used for the creation of these families in the context of each project. These families also have various creation methods that are specific to the type of family. You can create new types of system families by duplicating existing types and editing their parameters. |
| |
|
| System families are also used for many annotation categories such as sections, elevations, levels, grids, text and dimensions – they are not limited to model elements. |
| |
| Standard families |
 MECHANICAL EQUIPMENTS |
They are created outside of the project environment using the family editor. They are stored in an external library & can be loaded into a project to be used at any point. Every standard family belongs to a specific Revit category so that when it’s loaded into a project, it adopts the graphic rules defined for its category in the object styles dialog. This guaranties graphic consistency throughout your project & manages to keep changing into new families. |
| |
|
| This also guarantees that when you schedule a category you will get all elements that belong to that category. Standard families have their own file format extension (.rfa) and can be stored outside the project environment for later use in other projects. |
| |
Family Manager
Revit Family Manager is a tool runs as an application under Revit Architecture/MEP/Structural. It saves the users from time consuming searches. Users can quickly find out asked elements and change parameter values.
All families, whether local or in the network, can be gathered and managed. Family Manager arranges all that important information, the available family types as well as image viewer and 3D viewer for families converted into dwf files. Using double click, families can be opened for editing directly from the family Manager or imported using drag & drop in actual projects. |
