Description

Hummingbird is a set of Grasshopper components that facilitate the creation of Revit native geometry. This process exports basic geometric properties and parameter data to CSV text files which is used to describe many aspects of the Revit BIM geometry. In Revit this data is easily imported using the Whitefeet Modelbuilder tool (included).

Translating Rhino primative geometry to Revit has been vastly simplified without the need for linking or reference objects. This allows for the downstream Revit model to be modified and adapted for the project duration.

Issues with simple floor push

by Billie Allen

Apr 1, 2014

Hello Tim and everyone,I am having a difficult time with the floor push.  I can push one curve and it builds a floor in revit just fine, but if I add anymore curves above that, it creates a series of "floor openings" in revit at the same location of the first floor (even though in grasshopper they stack above) voiding out my one floor that is working.   I've tried building as

1.  Series

2.  Array

3.  Exploding both the top two options (array and series) and rebuilding curves

4.  Baking lines, and setting curve based on the baked lines.

I get the same results for all 4 ways.  Any help would be GREATLY Appreciated!

    Try grafting the input curves. This will create a separate floor object for each branch.
