16x70 Hollow Core Structural Beam

This 16x70 Hollow Core Structural Beam is a Revit family featuring a precise cross-section for precast flooring or roofing applications. The component represents a 16x70 hollow core structural element, commonly utilized in precast concrete construction for floor and roof systems. The geometry displays a distinct honeycomb-like internal void structure designed to reduce weight while maintaining high structural rigidity. The profile is defined by a rectangular outer boundary with rounded top corners, indicating a standard precast manufacturing process. This specific section is engineered for load-bearing applications, providing a clear representation of the internal web and flange configuration necessary for accurate structural modeling and quantity take-offs in complex building information projects.

The download is a 1.1 MB 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 load this Revit family directly into a structural project template and apply it as a structural framing member. The file supports standard orientation and alignment along grid lines or structural axes. Users should leverage the analytical lines within the family for structural calculation integration. It is recommended to assign appropriate material properties within the project environment to ensure accurate thermal and structural analysis, and to manage visibility settings through standard structural framing sub-categories for clean documentation.
