About this asset

Configured as a Revit family, this manual rigid wheelchair features a tubular metal chassis, spoked rear wheels with red handrims, and black sling seating. This model depicts an active manual wheelchair built upon an open, rigid tubular frame in matte light grey. A low-profile, solid black backrest and flat seat pan provide seating, complemented by an integrated calf strap and a continuous loop footplate. The drive assembly consists of two large spoked wheels fitted with high-contrast red handrims and tyres, mounted with slight negative camber for agility. Small front caster wheels sit in vertical fork assemblies beneath the forward frame curve, completing a compact, performance-oriented mobility design.

The download is a 399 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.

Designed for seamless insertion into Revit project environments, this specialty equipment family loads directly via the Component tool. Modelled as a standalone floor-hosted element, it can be aligned and rotated onto level floors or ramp surfaces to verify clear floor spaces, transfer zones, and turning radiuses in compliance with accessibility standards. Materials can be controlled through family type or instance properties.

Indispensable for healthcare, public, and commercial architecture, this asset aids in spatial planning for universal design across hospital corridors, accessible hotel suites, rehabilitation clinics, and educational campuses. Designers can place the unit alongside grab bars, accessible vanities, and ramp landings to perform circulation clearances and visual presentations. Searchers frequently look for active wheelchair, disabled mobility equipment, accessible clearances, and healthcare specialty fixtures when specifying this BIM component.
