As mentioned in the title,
Is there a process to transfer wall types from Revit to OBD?
We are looking into the use of OBD, however we have many wall types in Revit and this would significantly help as making wall types in OBD takes lot of time…
Hi All,
I'm trying to figure out different options for placing the analytical plane of walls (middle / inner side / outer side) for the structural export via ISM.
Using the described steps 1 and 2, I want to be able to place the physical wall centered…
Hi All!
I´m looking how to elaborate some specific schedules.
I need to do two things:
1- Tag walls in a very large project.
These tags should be unique by each specifica wall an slab, in order to later generate detail drawings of each of them…
Hello Good Bentley Fellas
I was wondering is there's any way to chamfer or fillet an edge or a wall that belongs to the catalog, or if it's a way to transform it into smart geometry to further editing.
Best Regards

Greetings good Bentley community,
I have a challenging question for you all,
I'm placing a door that goes trough a wall that is on a reference file, unfortunately the door doesn't perforate the referenced wall.
Anyone knows how to place walls…
This means that the created walls have no DataGroup information like hatch pattern, material, volume, fire ration, line weight etc. This information has to be added afterwards.
What is the easiest way to modify a wall penetration? For example, I have a penetration in my concrete lift station wall where my influent pipe is located and the pipe elevation has changed. Is there an easy way to change the location of the wall penetration…
Is there any way to change the orientation of the wall after setting it out?
With "orientation" I mean the reference line of the wall. E.g. changing it from orientation "left" to "senter" or "right".
Can you assign Catalogue Definitions to a part (NOT compound part)?? IE for a wall build up, I create the 'brick part' and the 'cavity part' and the 'plaster board part' etc. can I then assign Catalogue Definitions to the 'brick part' like type colour…
For some reason I can not get the walls to unify together. I got them to unify in Bentley Architecture XM but not in V8i. I set it up as much like I would have in XM. Any ideas why I'm not getting the walls to unify?
IF REFERENCE IS ATTACHED OF FILE IS CREATED WITH "WALL ASSEMBLY" THE MODEL WILL NOT SHOW UP IN EXTRACTION, EVEN THOUGH THEY APPEAR IN THE 3D MODEL. HOWEVER, IF THE REFERENCED FILE IS CREATED WITH SIMPLE "WALLS" AND IS ATTACHED, IT WILL BE EXTRACTED.
Hi, Scott,
Answering your last question first, the layout is rigid right now. However, if there are entries in the Wall catalog that you know your company will never use feel free to remove them.
Going back to your first question, please…
Eric,
There is a class that covers creation of Single/Compound walls and the parts that make them up. Take a look at the AECOsim Building Designer - Advanced User Customization class on the Learn Server. This is an on demand class with a video walking…
As an avid fan of the floor manager I have wanted to be able to set my wall heights to the storey height I am working at set in the Floor Manager. Buildings often have differing storey heights and given that we have input this information into the floor…
Hi Folks,
How can I change the hatch / color of a 3D element? (pic see attached)
Q: Do I change the hatch in 3D model or in the sheet?
Q: How I can do this? (Step by Step would be fine)
Q: How I can organize that the hatch is associative to…
We use our own Parts & Families based on Masterformat. Some examples include:
Family = 030000 (Structural Concrete)
Part = A_Precast (Architectural Precast Elements)
Family = 040000 (Masonry)
Part = Brick_Extr_03 5/8_A (3 5…
Catherine,
You can use the same Cut Solid by Curves tool on Bentley Architecture walls that you used on MicroStation solids.
If you want to place a recess in a BA wall:
Draw a closed shape that defines the shape of the recess on the face of…
Hi i'm wondering how to assign Hatching patterns to walls so in a Floor plan view the walls will appear hatched. It needs to be associated with the walls so when a change is made to the walls the hatching also changes. I'm using just the default wall…
Hi,
I am using Triforma V8 XM to produce architectural 3D models. I have been using the 'Place Linear Form' to create my walls. However I do have some areas in the floor plan that have ramps. How do I create sloped walls? I also need to create…
Hi emilberger
Today i have expose my pb to Bentley and i hope some answer.
So the general pb is how to work in 3D in architecture. Make a draw in 3d, no pb (or not yet..lol no). But the pb is to make extraction.
With the DEM, many cells are not…
I have created a compound wall type and have successfully placed it as a straight wall.
However when I try to place it as an arc (edge or center) it disappears on the final click. The screengrab shows what I see before the final click.
The wall…
