About this asset

This parametric trench drain Revit family features a linear grey channel body topped with an integrated transverse bar grating assembly. Modelled as a long rectangular channel, the unit presents a clean rectilinear profile finished in neutral grey tone. The upper drainage face incorporates an evenly spaced transverse bar grate, recessed slightly below the outer rim to capture surface runoff effectively. Its cross-section demonstrates uniform wall thickness along both longitudinal sides and solid end caps. At the bottom flank, an integrated MEP pipe connector glyph denotes the discharge outlet position, establishing proper hydraulic orientation for below-slab or exterior subgrade drainage runs without visual clutter.

The download is a 317 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.

Load the RFA component directly into the Revit project environment and position it within slab openings, exterior paving, or shower curb perimeters. Instance or type parameters allow adjustments to run length and channel depth to suit site grades. Connect the MEP pipe connector directly into the sanitary or storm drainage pipework network, ensuring slope continuity and accurate MEP coordination during clash detection.

This channel drain suits commercial parking decks, industrial warehouse floors, plant rooms, exterior hardscape plazas, and barrier-free wet rooms. Designers specifying linear floor drains, surface drainage channels, or stormwater trench systems can coordinate this component during design development and construction documentation phases. It pairs cleanly with concrete slabs, exterior unit pavers, and basement drainage sump networks across mixed-use, logistics, and healthcare projects.
