This grey 2D silhouette of a person in a wheelchair is a Revit family component designed for architectural drafting and presentation. Representing a person seated in a standard manual wheelchair, this 2D graphic component is rendered as a clean, flat grey silhouette. The design focuses on clear legibility for architectural floor plans and elevation drawings, providing an essential scale reference for accessibility compliance and spatial planning. It captures the essential profile of the wheelchair, including the large rear wheels, front casters, and footrests, ensuring that circulation paths and turning radii are accurately represented in technical documentation. The graphic is simplified to avoid visual clutter while maintaining the necessary dimensions to communicate standard ADA or equivalent accessibility requirements.
The download is a 276 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.
As a standard Revit family, this component is placed directly into project views using the component tool. It is primarily intended for use in floor plans, sections, and elevations where a flat, symbolic representation is required. Users can easily rotate the family to align with the orientation of the project, ensuring that circulation paths and furniture layouts are correctly assessed. Since it is a 2D element, it remains lightweight and will not impact the performance of complex BIM models.
