Create new wall types
In architectural design, wall types define much more than just the shape of a space; they influence performance, compliance, and aesthetics. In Revit, you can create custom wall types tailored to your project needs, from enhanced fire resistance or performance values, to specialized architectural finishes. This video guides you through duplicating existing walls, editing structure layers and materials, and using sweeps to add profiles like skirting. You’ll also learn how to create stacked walls that combine different materials above and below ground. These skills let you model with greater flexibility and meet real-world construction requirements.
After completing this video, you'll be able to:
- Create and use new exterior and interior wall types.
 - Create and use stacked wall types.
 - Use wall sweeps to add skirting or other profiles to walls.
