About this asset

This Revit family landing valve is a fire protection pipe fitting designed for integrated building mechanical systems. The landing valve is a standard fire hydrant pipe fitting featuring a robust flanged connection and a manually operated handwheel for flow control. The geometry is simplified for efficient BIM modeling, showing a spherical valve body, a lateral outlet, and a circular wheel handle. Its construction suggests a heavy-duty metal casting, typical for fire suppression standpipes in multi-storey buildings. The model is presented as a singular, functional component, focusing on the essential technical form required for routing fire water supply lines in complex mechanical coordination models.

The download is a 492 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.

Engineers can insert this family directly into existing piping systems within Revit. It is designed to be hosted on pipe segments, allowing for quick placement during the mechanical layout phase. The geometry is lightweight, ensuring minimal impact on model performance in large-scale projects. Users should verify flow parameters and connection sizes against project-specific piping schedules to ensure accurate system analysis and documentation within the Revit environment.

This component is essential for fire protection engineering in residential, industrial, and commercial developments. It is commonly placed in stairwells, service risers, and plant rooms where fire hydrant points are required by code. Architects and MEP consultants use this asset during the design development and construction documentation stages to coordinate fire suppression infrastructure with structural elements and architectural finishes. It is often searched for as a fire hydrant valve, standpipe fitting, or mechanical fire protection component.
