About this asset

This 2D coach screw detail component for Revit provides a clean, line-based graphic representation for structural timber connections. The component is a precise 2D vector representation of a standard hexagonal-head coach screw, designed for use in Revit drafting views. It features the characteristic coarse thread profile and a robust hexagonal head, rendered through clean, scalable linework. The geometry is simplified for clarity in technical documentation, ensuring it reads well at standard architectural scales such as 1:5 or 1:10. As a native detail item, it maintains consistent line weights across various sheets, providing a professional and legible visual shorthand for fasteners within timber framing, heavy-duty structural assemblies, and general construction details.

The download is a 338 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.

Users should load this RFA file into their project or template as a detail component. Once loaded, it can be placed directly into drafting views or onto the canvas of a detail view. Because it is a 2D family, it does not rely on 3D geometry, ensuring the file remains lightweight and responsive. Designers can rotate or mirror the component to suit specific connection orientations, and it can be easily grouped with other drafting elements to create standardized connection libraries.

This asset is essential for architects and structural engineers developing detailed construction documentation for timber-framed buildings. It is primarily used in sectional details, wall-to-floor junctions, and heavy timber beam connections. Professionals working on residential renovations, barn conversions, or industrial timber structures will find this a quick way to annotate fasteners without modelling complex 3D hardware. It pairs perfectly with standard timber framing components, floor joist details, and roof truss connection sheets, ensuring a consistent graphic standard across all technical drawing sets.
