In this Revit Architecture tutorial I show you how to load and place Component Fixtures onto Revit Ceilings. I also show you how to correctly align them onto a Suspended Ceiling Grid.
Tutorial Agenda
- Loading the Fixtures Families
- Placing the component families onto your ceiling
- Aligning the components with the suspended ceiling grid
- Copying the components to create your layout
