How to Choose Glass Curtain Wall Container House?

Hi @Anonymous

You will get efficient and thoughtful service from Q-box.

Is there a reason why you are seeking this functionality? I can pass your request to the team working on the walls improvements.

I've marked @barthbradley and @ToanDN posts as answers as this is a definitely a 'no' but we do have a couple of workaround based on your end requirement. If you want to continue the conversation, please feel to post further and let us know if you have additional questions.

Glad to help!

AKN article on stacked walls

There are a couple of workarounds shared by our team.

1. You can unstack the walls (right click and select 'break-up' option). Then select the wall you need as a curtain wall and change the type in your properties.

See the screencast below where I've edited a couple of stacked walls and inserted curtain panels.

Hope that helps!

Hi Viveka_CD,

This request comes from the project specification. I have a university building with fixed horizon of interior glazed system-walls and directy above them G-K partition walls that reach up to the raw ceiling. Beacuase of the complexity of the model, I am working mostly in floor plan, hence the question - moving both walls (which are broke up) is quite tedious (I need to move both of them) and doesnt work as smooth as with moving a stacked wall.

Would be great if you can pass me issues to the improvement department.

Hi @Anonymous

Thanks for the response!

A few workarounds from the team for you to try:

1. Create a G-K partition wall reaching to the raw ceiling, and create a curtain wall at the same position in the plan view, but keep its height lower than the partition wall, use 'cut' function to embed the curtain wall to the concrete wall.

2. Create the stacked wall, right click hit ' break up' and then swap the type (As in my screencast above)

3. Try creating this using the inverse approach- for example:

• make the curtain wall as the main "container" (main wall A)
• add required basic walls (A1, A2, etc or other curtain walls B1, B2 embedded in it). 
• A curtain wall can host other walls and other curtain walls by swapping the panel infills.
• Walls can be embedded into a host wall so that the embedded wall is associated with the host wall.

Let me know if this works better for you and if you have questions on the above workarounds.

For now, you can post this requirement to the Revit Ideas forum and based on interest level, the team will consider implementation.

You are also welcome to share your file or any screenshots from your model and I'll be glad to test it further - I can share a private folder if you'd prefer that. I look forward to your reply update.

I'm designing a dining space for a school and this space needs much of both day light and natural ventilation. I've used a perforated brick wall to achieve this. However this perforated wall needs to sit on top of a solid brick wall. The stacked wall option doesn't have curtain wall as an option to be added. It would be helpful if it was made possible.

Thanks.
