Creating a Pier Schedule

Creating a Pier Schedule

Here’s a hint. In Revit land, a pier is actually a structural column. This is different from a typical Revit project though. It’s different because when we imported our Civil Structures, we actually introduced a bunch of new parameters we can add to our schedules!

- Open the model you have been working in

- You can be in any view to do this, but let’s go to the South elevation view anyway

- On the View tab, click Schedules then select Schedules Quantities

- Scroll down to Structural Columns

- For the Name, type in PIER SCHEDULE

- Click OK

- Select the parameters in the left column, click the Add button and add the parameters shown below, in this order:

- Go to the Filter tab

- Filter by: Type Mark

- Begins with: P-

- Go to the Sorting/Grouping tab

- Sort by: Type Mark

- Check Grand Totals on

- Go to the Formatting tab

- Select CIP concrete volume

- Select Calculate totals:

- With CIP concrete volume still selected, click the Field Format… button

- Uncheck Use project settings

- Change the units to Cubic yards

- Click OK

- Click OK again. You now have a schedule calculating your concrete volumes
