Parapets

Create

Creates a 3D model of a bridge parapet along the chosen axis, curve or edge. The geometry of the parapet is defined in Parapet Profile Revit Family.

  1. Click SOFiSTiK Bridge tab > Create panel > icon_Parapets (Parapets) drop-down > icon_Parapets_Create (Create)

  2. Select path of the parapets by clicking of the axis, curve or edge. You can select multiple curves. Confirm with ENTER.

    SOFiSTiK: Parapets dialog displays.

  3. Choose appropriate Parapet Profile family, name for component, material, Start and End of the path and additional offsets. Confirm with OK to generate the Parapet.

  4. Select an edge or activate ‘Multiple’ checkbox in left top corner, select edges and click Finish.

Tip

In case ‘Aligned to adjacent geometry’ option is not activated, Offsets U and V define the orientation of the profile according to the general X/Y/Z coordinate system of the axis.

Tip

In case the path of the Railing has been changed, you can regenerate the Railing in Infra Browser using context menu. (mouse right-click on component)

Tip

When ‘Use Construction Point’ checkbox is activated, the parapet’s width will be stretch to the next construction point in the cross section definition. Therefore, in order to obtain variable width of parapet, you can define an additional construction point in Cross Section Editor and assign variable.

Note

While selecting multiple edges, make sure that all the edges are creating continuous line.
