About this asset

This Revit annotation family provides a window tag compliant with the NBR 6492 standard for clear technical documentation. Designed specifically for architectural documentation in Brazil, this window tag follows the NBR 6492 technical drafting standards. The family features a circular identifier for the window reference, coupled with parametric labels for dimensions and sill height. The geometry is purely 2D, consisting of clean lines and text placeholders that automatically pull data from window instances within a project. It is structured to maintain consistent graphic standards across floor plans and elevation sheets, ensuring all window schedules and plan annotations remain uniform throughout the design development and construction documentation phases.

The download is a 215 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

To implement this tag, load the family into your Revit project and assign it to the window category within the annotation settings. Once active, use the tag-by-category tool to automatically pull data from your model elements. You can adjust the visibility of individual labels through the family type parameters if certain information, such as the sill height, is not required for specific drawing scales or sheets.

This annotation is essential for architects and engineers working on projects following Brazilian technical norms. It is primarily used in residential, commercial, and industrial construction documentation where strict adherence to NBR 6492 is mandatory for building permits and construction sets. Professional users will find it useful for streamlining the tagging of window schedules on floor plans and elevations, ensuring clear communication of dimensions and reference codes to contractors and site teams during the project execution stage.
