This industrial grey steel adjustable temporary column is a Revit family featuring a telescopic mechanism for height regulation. This temporary support column features a robust two-part telescopic steel assembly finished in a neutral grey coating. The design includes a cylindrical main shaft with a series of height-adjustment pin holes along the upper section. A central collar with integrated handles allows for secure tightening and locking at the required elevation. Both the base and the top of the unit are fitted with flat, square steel plates that incorporate four pre-drilled bolt holes for fixing to structural surfaces. Its utilitarian aesthetic emphasises durability and functionality for site-specific load-bearing applications during renovation or construction.
The download is a 328 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.
When working in Revit, load this family into your project to represent temporary structural shoring. Utilize the instance parameters to adjust the height to match site conditions or specific load-bearing requirements. Because this is a structural element, ensure it is hosted correctly within your structural model to maintain accurate reporting for construction sequences. You can apply custom material parameters to the steel geometry if you need to differentiate temporary supports from permanent structural members in your schedules or 3D views.
