In this video, you will learn how to use Formulas in Revit Families. This is a basic video of some of the formulas as you can use. A lot of them have to do with visibility as you will want to be able to control what you see and when. My hope from this video is that you feel good about using these basic parameters in your families. Please leave any questions in the comments and I will do my best to answer them fully. Thanks for watching!

Thank you Partha, glad it was able to help!

@brothersMcgrimm 2 года назад

Awesome work man, and very concise and easy to follow your direction, many thanks! I'm building a lot of MEP accessories like support beams and hangers that utilize shop material like C-channel, All thread and Tube steel to name a few. All must be scheduled for fabrication so I'm creating nested families and its a lot of and hard work, however formulas such as these may be very useful!

@ArchitectureVanguard 2 года назад

Glad I could help! Heck yes, you will definitely need formulas and likely to check that "shared" box in the nested families.

@ThePhipie 3 года назад

It was great to see this explained with visual examples instead of in concept.

@ArchitectureVanguard 3 года назад

Glad to know this helped you! I am much more of a visual person, so I had to do it that way!

Good tip about the array and visibility formula towards the end of the vid

@ArchitectureVanguard 4 года назад

Arrays need a lot of attention and parameters which makes it prime for using different visibility parameters and formulas.

I smashed the crap out of that Like button !! Great videos brother :D How many tests would an If_Test check if an If_Test could check tests?

@ArchitectureVanguard 3 года назад

Hahaha thanks a lot! I really wonder that. It has to be at least six but the first would have to be True to continue to the next test.

Very good video, finally some clear instruction. I have a question. I really need to learn how to make my piping schedules work with hydronic piping and calculating weight, etc for my job. I need a one on one tutor to walk me through this. I would be willing to compensate you for your time, would you be interested in doing this over a zoom meeting or a web based video?

@rajeshm7568 4 года назад

@theleonson100 2 года назад

if you using space or slash, Use [if/test] or [If Test] revit read it as the parameter

Dont know if your still monitoring this account but I need help with creating floor grating that is able to adjust the height of the grating and use a sketch for the outline, like a floor but using steel bars and rods. I have already created a floor grating that is rectangular and not able to be used in odd shaped trenches or floor pits, which is why I need to be able to use a sketch to control the overall shape but maintain the bar & rod spacing. could you possibly help? It would be appreciated, Thank you

Hi my name is Willem, I live is SA, if you can perhaps guide me in the following wrt parameter formulas. I need to create 'n reducer, the data sheet show some D1' s to be the same but the d2 are different sizes with respect to each D1 value. Wait for your reply

@User_2026_ 3 года назад

Duuude, that was so useful, you`re the best, but i have a question for you, can you use an (IF) statement to control a shared parameter (such as Family Type>>Generic Annotation) in a typical families?? i mean if you have a 3 almost typical families, you created one, you want to re-use the parameters in the second one and control it by (IF) statement?? if that is possible, Could you show us how?

@ArchitectureVanguard 3 года назад

Thank you very much! I have not worked so much with shared parameters but I believe you could use If statements with shared parameters. I will have to get back to you on that specifically.

@tohkengleng9034 Год назад

If area difference is between -2 and 2, how do I display not ok text?

@ArchitectureVanguard Год назад

You would need to create a separate parameter specifically for displaying the text then apply essentially the IF statement you laid out in the formula of that parameter.

hi.... can we add beam top level in beam tag with ref. to project survey point.

@ArchitectureVanguard Год назад

Ohh that might be tough. I would look to a global parameter for that. That would give you the best chance but I cannot say for sure that's possible.

@fekerbainesagne3829 2 года назад

Architecture Vanguard, is there a way to insert scale parameter in Revit family ? Thanks in Advance.

@ArchitectureVanguard 2 года назад

The best way to do that is through another number parameter and using the formula to introduce a scale or even add a second parameter to influence that scale parameter.

@gabro8661 3 года назад

Please tell me whether it is possible to make so that: if you turn on one parameter forexample in visibility, then automatically turns off the other parameter?

@ArchitectureVanguard 3 года назад

Yes, try this: not(your parameter name). This will turn off what ever yes/no parameter it is associated to based on the yes/no parameter you are pointing at.

@gabro8661 3 года назад

@Architecture Vanguard Many thanks!

@mikkelnederby905 3 года назад

Hello. I really need help to a formula. I want to have a formula where I can say (this is an exampel): Show object 1 if Height is divided with 3 or Show object 2 if Height is divided with 4. Btw amazing video!

@ArchitectureVanguard 3 года назад

You can add those formals just the way you laid out in the comment each associated to a yes/no parameter that points to each object.

@megataiman877 2 года назад

I got a question , currently my Bottom of Duct from Reference Level(RL) is 575mm, but my label tag BOD reads 475mm, there is a difference of 100mm, how do I create a formula that the tag can read like this --> BOD = (+100), to ensure the tag can read +100 from bottom of duct..

@ArchitectureVanguard 2 года назад

You might check your "elevation" in your project base point to make sure that the elevation starts at 0. That is unless you want it to start at 100mm in this case. Seems weird to not be at 0 in this case but you never know. That would affect all your elevation tags. As for the tag, you would could always add a suffix of (+100mm) but that would be weird. Assuming it is a true spot elevation then I would check your project base point elevation first.

@megataiman877 2 года назад

@@ArchitectureVanguard thanks for the prompt reply! I managed to sort out the issue, its the Reference Level that was off by 100mm apparently! nothing wrong with the Duct model ref level and label tags but good tips! thanks again!

@josef.david.mushpile 2 года назад

Is there anyway to have the yes no change the value of a number. Say you check a box and it would automatically change Number 1 to a value you determine.

@ArchitectureVanguard 2 года назад

You can do this with a formula. For example, if(parameter name), number value, other number value. This basically says if the yes/no parameter is yes then the first number value will be the parameter value and if no then the second number would be.

@josef.david.mushpile 2 года назад

@@ArchitectureVanguard Yeah, i ended up figuring it out. I thought that I had to give it a value or equals so i was trying to do: if(Parameter=true, A, B) But like you said all I had to do was: If(Parameter, A, B) Actually went a step further in my case and nested another if statement inside that formula, but your video was really informative. Thank you.

@heatherlezon3591 2 года назад

@@ArchitectureVanguard in this same case, is there a way to make "other number value" be anything. Basically when the box is checked, it has to be (x), but otherwise it can be any value?

@PraWin_Suthar 3 года назад

How do I solve the number of array become one in revit when move to 2nd not Last array

@ArchitectureVanguard 3 года назад

If I am understanding you correctly, you are asking what to do when the array is one. I always end up using a Yes/No parameter to show single object that is separate from the array IF the array is equal to 1. Hope that helps.

@azizmalhas 3 года назад

I have been trying to make formula that has the height always equel to max lenght or width, But i just cant work around it, Could you help in that ? and explain how you did it thanks

@ArchitectureVanguard 3 года назад

It is likely you need to make another parameter to avoid circular chains but also just to reference. You could a parameter for a max length if you know that and it is static and simply reference that as needed. It is different if you want to take the largest result from a reporting parameter for example, that one is more difficult. I Do you think that might work for you?

@azizmalhas 3 года назад

@@ArchitectureVanguard I managed to get two solutions right , At the height formula section I wrote : if(width>length, width, length) or if(length>width, length,width). Those worked! Thanks man.
