Finishes Tool
Build complete room finishes in Revit in one step. Finishes Tool lets you select rooms and generate ceilings, wall plaster, paint, flooring, and skirting from your chosen Revit types - no manual modeling.
App description
Finishes Tool builds the finishes for a room - ceiling, plaster, paint, floor, and skirting - from a single dialog, so you don't have to model each layer by hand. Pick one or more rooms, choose the types and dimensions for each finish, and the tool generates the finish elements bounded to the room.
For the ceiling you set a ceiling type and either a drop from the top of the room (DT) or a clear height (CH). Plastering takes a plaster wall type and an overshoot value (PO); painting applies a paint wall type (on the plaster, on the ceiling face, or a manual thickness); flooring uses a floor type; and the skirt layer uses a skirt wall type and height (SH). Run it once and the room's finishes are modeled and ready to schedule or detail.
