This Timber Lagging Construction Panel is a Revit family component designed for site earthwork, shoring, and trenching applications. This Revit family represents a standard timber lagging board, typically used in shoring systems or temporary earth-retaining structures. The form is a simple, rectangular prism, reflecting the geometry of sawn timber sections used on construction sites. The visual representation includes clear line-work indicating the board's profile, suitable for both 3D visualization and detailed site plans. Its proportions are consistent with standard structural lumber dimensions, providing a clean, lightweight asset for documenting site excavations, retaining walls, or temporary formwork systems within the BIM environment without adding unnecessary geometric complexity to the overall project file.
The download is a 266 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.
In Revit, this family is best utilized as a component within a larger shoring assembly or site excavation model. Users can load the family into a project file and place it as a standalone instance or array it to create continuous retaining walls. Because it is a simple geometry, it is highly efficient for large-scale site modelling. Assigning material parameters within the family editor allows for consistent scheduling and accurate visual representation across various project phases, from early site planning to final construction documentation.

This asset is essential for civil engineering projects, site preparation, and temporary construction works where earth retention is required. It is frequently employed by architects and engineers during the excavation phase to model trench shoring, soldier pile walls, or temporary retaining structures. Professionals searching for site-specific BIM components will find this useful for clear communication of construction methodologies. It pairs well with other site-work elements like steel H-piles and excavation plans, ensuring that temporary works are accurately reflected in the building information model.
