You'll need to delete the extra stringer (support) when you finish the stair. If you let it create both railings, just select and delete the extra/wrong one after you finish the stair sketch.Ī stair that ends at a landing requires you to sketch the landing instead of placing one automatically. If none, then later you can apply a railing separately to each side using a more appropriate type. You can tell Revit which type of railing to use (if part of the template) or none via the last button on the ribbon, right side while in stair sketch mode. Hopefully one of these links will help you out.ĭefault behavior is to apply a railing to a stair when the stair is made, both sides.

Video Guide to creating a Railing Family. Good one extension styles on out of the box Revit Railings. Revit Architecture: Railing Extension Styles - BIMscape Another thing to note is you can adjust the Top Rail separately from the parent railing Family. Youtube offer a good set of videos regarding this. The tidying up part is a little bit more complex and will refer to someone else. Select the rail, copy and under Modify Tab select "Align to Same Place" and then edit both rails so that only one path (one continuous line) is within each instance of the Rail Family. The error you encountered is because you cannot have a break with the same path (or instance of the Rail Family). Granted I don't work with stairs professionally but I had a quick play and Railings don't seem that bad.įrom what you have said, it sounds as if you want to change the path of the railing as it is obstructing the door?Įasy, select the rail and edit the path accordingly (i.e that are blocking the door). I'm somewhat confused by the issue you are experiencing. Why, oh why does it have to be so complicated and exasperating to draw the simplest of things with Revit?Ĭan anybody out there advise me how to get rid of the unwanted handrails and balustrading? I have read a thread started by KeviNg on 12th February 2016 and replied to by thetragicjoy with a suggestion that does not work because I still get the same error message and if I could find a way to pick the thing I've just drawn over with a copy of the railings, I would get the same error message twice. I did not attempt to separate pieces of railing.

If you want to separate pieces of Railing, create two or more separate Railings". When I do this, I get an error message that says it can't be ignored and reads " The Railing line must be a single connected Sketch. So I have tried to use the "edit path" command to get rid of the unwanted handrails and balustrading, and tidy up the join between the handrail to the steps and the handrail to the landing. When I draw the steps and add the landing to it, I get handrails and balustrading to both sides of the steps and three sides of the landing, as if you would want railings to a landing in front of a wall and obstructing the door from the building to the landing. There is a handrail and balustrading down one side of the steps above the outer string and to two sides of the landing. I'm trying to draw external metal steps comprising one flight of steps up the side of a building with a landing at the top.
