Thanks! Looks really nice. To save time, demonstrate the "tab trick" while using pick lines or clicking edges for the fascia. When fascia command is active, simply hover over a line or edge and press tab and it will select all joined lines. Then left-click and all the fascia are created at the same time :)
This is a perfect video for students. Straight to the point and efficient... while also providing extra insight like how to create the curb component. Thank you so much for this helpful video!
Good job you,I tried to medel it;it was difficult at first,but after watching the tutorial again and again,I now began to model it,but the surface splitting and exporting still giving me though time.You are doing a wonderful work
I just subscribed to your channel today n watched a few videos of yours. I m a very experienced Autocad 2d user but had just started to learn revit. I just want to compliment you on your video clips n tips on Revit. It is v well produced n the steps n audio instructions are clear. Thank you v much. From Cy Singapore
Interesting approach, shame about the roof categories having to be used for mass by face but makes sense given the limitations of the software. An alternative approach I'm going to run a tutorial on will be to use dynamo to 'drape' a floor with sub-points onto the topo using Dynamo, cut out the ground below and lower by a set amount to another level and use slab edges for the kerb profile.
Thanks for video. Instead roof family, I've used road family. Sidewalk and curbs modeled in place ( sweep) avoiding exporting and importing CAD drawing dwg.
Superb and well explained... In your video length 9:09, you said 2.2 meter (incl in subtitle), But actually you have typed 0.2m only... However fantastic work.... really useful...Do you have any videos for Irrigation piping / valve / sprinkler / drip tube etc..?
I discovered that you don’t have to flatten the site cad from Autocad. Place points at the center of the elevation markers in AutoCAD then import to revit. Add topo surface then import points. At the dialogue box import the layer containing the points that you imported. This will form a surface. If the surface is too high or low , go to elevation and drag it to the light level and voila. You’ll can also align your surface in the x or y in the same way.
Roads for the most part do not just follow the natural gradient. They have their own gradient which cuts into the higher terrain (with escarpment gradient of 1:1 or vertical if retained by a wall) or is mass filled over the lower terrain (with escarpment gradient of 1:1.5 or vertical if retained by a wall). Longitudinal gradient of the road is 1:10 max and lateral about 2% max if memory serves except in high speed curves. What you made there looks nice but is incorrect from a technical point of view. It would have been more pronounced had you created a steeper gradient terrain.
This all makes sense, but I am not sure if this is what someone would do in a production environment? Correct me if I am wrong. It just seems this is good for a rendering if that is what you are using revit for. Don't get me wrong, this was super helpful and very clear!

As an architecture student I can't thank you enough for the time and effort you put in your videos. Thank you so much !
Thank you for making critically useful tutorials! I'm so grateful! I wish you great success in all you do!
It really worked for me after I look and try some tutorials, yours is the one that worked. Owe you a lot.
dude, you literally saved my life, this is awesome
this is one of the best tutorials for roads! well done. simple and practical
Thanks! Looks really nice.

Thanks didn’t know revit can tab through edges
This is a perfect video for students. Straight to the point and efficient... while also providing extra insight like how to create the curb component. Thank you so much for this helpful video!
lol ive watched this video for almost every project ive done, you are my savior
Perfect man, I am starting a new job and needed to brush up on my revit skills.
i had to watch 12 videos to finally find this solution!!!! thumbs up!
Your Revit tutorials helped me get through my semester this year.
I just wanna thank you for your awesome tutorials, they're so helpful!!
you know your videos are worth money because it is give us exactly what we want.
You the only RUclipsr I watched 40+ videos
@balkanarchitect a revision for 2024 version would be great. Excellent video!
Good job you,I tried to medel it;it was difficult at first,but after watching the tutorial again and again,I now began to model it,but the surface splitting and exporting still giving me though time.You are doing a wonderful work
This channel is the best revit educational page ever❤❤
Exactly what I needed at exactly the right time! I love your video's! Keep it up!
big ups bro ur tutorials are really informative and one of the best i have seen
ti si čudo! hvala ti jer puno si mi pomogo kod izrade diplomskog! :D
Thanks man. Please never stop making videos. Make it every day. Again thanks for your effort.

am i the only one who got really frustrated because it seems easy when he does but İT İS NOT?!
Mee too. ☺☺☺
😂 mei hoo na too
Rolling in the deep!!!!😛😛😸🦖
its actually easy, just practice
I KNOW RIGHT
YOU ARE THE REASON I AM PASSING MY THIRD YEAR WITH A HIGH GRADE. THANK YOU SM
roof + fascia for landscape, brilliant !!
sir , u dont have to ask us to like this video . obviously we'll like your video . because all your is too good and perfect
Balkan Architect, you're the GOAT.
Very detailed and awesome videos bro, yours is the first channel I subscribed..thanks a lot and keep helping!
the best video of site plan in Revit. thank you so much
Fast, clear, easy to understand-excellent........
Fantastic workaround to create BIM objects for topography. Thank you so much!!!
this looks really awesome - i look forward to digging into revit for civil works for looks

Fantastic and super clear tutorial and walkthrough! Thanks so much!
I was NOT expecting curbs to be this complicated sheesh
You really helped me out! Thank you for your tutorials!!
you're saving my home reno assignment- Thank you!!
why i never found this channel before would have helped me alot.
Thank you for explaining this thoroughly!
Thanks for video. Instead roof family, I've used road family. Sidewalk and curbs modeled in place ( sweep) avoiding exporting and importing CAD drawing dwg.
You're an amazing teacher, dude. Thank you!
Thank you Sir! TNice tutorials helps alot !
nice job man, thanks for uploading! Keep up the good work
you have read my mind i was gonna ask you to do that; thank you so much!
This tutorial help a lot to us... Thank You Bro and God Bless... Perfect!!!
my best lecture of revit
Thanks so much for making tNice tutorials video! You really broke it down well.
THE EXACT THING I NEEDED! REALLY HELPFUL!
Superb and well explained... In your video length 9:09, you said 2.2 meter (incl in subtitle), But actually you have typed 0.2m only... However fantastic work.... really useful...Do you have any videos for Irrigation piping / valve / sprinkler / drip tube etc..?
love you bro, u gave me an idea to create walls following the topography with this method without dynamo
Edit subregion. Copy the lines.
Starrt the Model line tool.
Paste aligned.
Use roof fascia with a profile for the curb.
Nice stuff! Exellent learning for me!
Wonder full work ! you made revit easy !
Excellent ! exactly what i needed
Thank you for sharing this informative video... Site Plan is made easy, thanks to you...!!

I really needed this. Thanks
This is a very helpful tutorial, thanks!!
Perfect! Congrats!
With respect to BIM, isn't it strange to use a roof to model the sidewalk and curb? Would there be another family to accomplish that?
waaaw it's nice one.u did that i need.thank u
your videos are good and help me learn
Thanks for sharing this ! Very interesting 👏👏👏👏
thanks for your supports
Wow, this was incredibly helpful. Thank you so much.

The last thing we need is architects doing site design
This is good. Thanks a whole lot. Keep it up
Thankyou For Solving this problem ..
you re the man bro
Great video, thanks!
