Revit Irish families

walkingshadow

Hi- I’m new to Revit and have been looking online for good families of doors, windows, walls, etc. There are a few good ones, but I suppose I’m looking for families that would be more suited to Irish construction standards, for example 350 cavity block walls with insulation. Does anyone here have any good Irish-suitable families? I’ve been making some myself and would be glad to share if others are!

There are some irish window family windows on revit city, with a standard concrete sill, for the walls the easiest thing to do is to just duplicate a wall and edit as needed

make duplicates and edit them to your own spec, that all I do anyway

the only thing I go looking for families are windows, doors and other niggly things that I couldn't be arsed creating myself

In my experience creating new door families from scratch is no picnic anyway! Quite complex if you're looking for a door with a lot of hardware on it.
