In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to create a custom beam family in Revit using a nested profile family and the Sweep tool.
Learn step-by-step how to build a parametric structural framing family where the beam shape is driven by a profile. I’ll walk you through nesting the profile family, setting it up correctly, and using it in a sweep to define the beam geometry.
This method gives you flexibility in customizing beam shapes and ensures better control over geometry in your Revit projects. Perfect for those looking to enhance their Revit family creation skills, especially in structural modeling.
