Revit Families, Object Design System ---
(24) Railings (system Family) 


A Stair element can consist of the following components: Runs, Landings, Supports (side and centre), and Railings.

To create a stair, the individual components are assembled and configured in Stair Assembly Edit Mode. The process typically involves defining the stair runs, connecting them with landings, adding supports where required, and configuring the railings. These operations can be carried out in either a plan view or a 3D view.

Although the individual components are distinct, they maintain a parametric relationship with one another within the overall stair assembly. Changes to one component can therefore trigger corresponding adjustments to others. For example, if the number of risers in one Run is reduced, Revit can redistribute the remaining risers across connected Runs to maintain the overall stair height.

Despite these interdependencies, the individual components remain accessible for separate editing, scheduling, and documentation, allowing each to be monitored and controlled independently where required.

IfcRailing

Definition of buildingSMART 

The railing is a frame assembly adjacent to human circulation spaces and at some space boundaries where it is used in lieu of walls or to complement walls. Designed to aid humans, either as an optional physical support, or to prevent injury by falling. A list of references to accessory/mounting hardware for this railing might be given by including these assessories (IfcDiscreteAssessory) through the objectified relationship IfcRelAggregates.

Property Set Use Definition

The property sets relating to the IfcRailing are defined by the IfcPropertySet and attached by the IfcRelDefinesByProperties relationship. It is accessible by the inverse IsDefinedBy relationship. The following property set definitions specific to the IfcRailing are part of this IFC release:

Pset_RailingCommon: common property set for all railing occurrences

Geometry Use Definitions

The geometric representation of IfcRailing is given by the IfcProductDefinitionShape, allowing multiple geometric representations. Included are:

Local placement

The local placement for IfcRailing is defined in its supertype IfcProduct. It is defined by the IfcLocalPlacement, which defines the local coordinate system that is referenced by all geometric representations.
  • The PlacementRelTo relationship of IfcLocalPlacement shall point (if given) to the same IfcSpatialStructureElement that is used in the ContainedInStructure inverse attribute or to a referenced spatial structure element at a higher level
  • If the IfcRailing, however, is used by an IfcStair or IfcRamp, and this container class defines its own local placement, then the PlacementRelTo relationship of IfcLocalPlacement shall point (if given) to the local placement of the aggregate.
  • If the relative placement is not used, the absolute placement is defined within the world coordinate system.

Geometric Representation

Currently the use of 'BoundingBox', 'SurfaceModel', 'Brep' and 'MappedRepresentation' representations of IfcRailing are supported. The conventions to use these representations are given at the level of the supertype, IfcBuildingElement.
