MBA-103 Subject: Model of steel rigid frames

A problem using only beams and Pillars.
This is a technique that does not dominate but we found a way to circumvent. This is to make a steel column (for example, a profile H) is one with a rake, also of steel and the same section, so as to form a continuous structure, monolithic, representing the type of connections a rigid frame. It's the same effect be achieved easily by a family in-situ with a sweep, however, the idea is to use only pillars and beams so that you can cube the total tonnage of the structure.

tools for editing geometry of structural elements that provides Revit Architecture allow us, at best, the following type of finish on the beam-column using the Crop tool :




However, the key that this constituted only by beams, the tool Unions beam / pillar operates doing exactly what we want


We would get on the beam-pillar the same type of connection that key frame. The only solution seems to be a small catch: convert the column into a beam, that is, using a beam completely tilted to the point of being vertical, instead of a column. Then, the tool Union beam / pillar they can operate in the union getting accurate modeling. Thus, the weight of the frame can be cubed accurately.
