Hi,
I'm trying to find out how to use a UB (beam profile) for columns in Revit. Can this be done?
I get that UB profiles are a beam profile, not a column, but our engineers do often use them as columns, so it would be great if we could set them up properly in Revit.
If you've got any ideas, or even the family, it would be most appreciated,
Regards
ND

Hi,
See attached  RVT Pacifica  family: UB as Column.
You might also like to use the  RVT Pacifica  family: PFC as Column.
