Parametric flexibility prevents the need to recreate families for different product models or capacities. Establish a robust skeleton of reference planes before modeling any 3D geometry. Reference Plane Layout
The Family Editor is a specialized modeling workspace in Revit designed specifically for creating and modifying families. It provides a focused environment to define how your component will behave, featuring tools for drawing reference planes, adding dimensions, setting parameters, and creating form-based geometry like extrusions and blends. Mastering this environment is essential for efficiently creating a shell and tube heat exchanger Revit family.
