About this asset

This Revit structural family features a six-panel steel Pratt truss with distinct cord and web sizes for robust roof support. Engineered as a comprehensive steel Pratt truss, this component is structured into six equal bays. The design incorporates varied section depths for the top and bottom chords compared to the vertical and diagonal web members, reflecting standard structural steel framing practices. The assembly includes integrated mounting plates along the top chord for purlin or roof deck connection. The geometry is clean and precise, suitable for structural documentation and coordination in Revit. The grey-toned steel finish provides a neutral aesthetic suitable for exposed ceiling designs in industrial or commercial architectural contexts.

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.

In Revit, this family is intended for placement within a structural framing project. Users can load the RFA into a project and host it on structural grids or reference planes. The family allows for the standard manipulation of analytical lines for structural analysis. Users should verify that the profile types for the chords and webs align with their project's structural steel library to ensure accurate schedules and material take-offs during the documentation phase.

This truss is ideal for large-span roof structures in industrial warehouses, commercial showrooms, and modern office buildings where exposed structural steel is a defining design feature. It is frequently employed by structural engineers and BIM coordinators during the design development and construction documentation phases. Professionals often search for this asset when detailing roof framing systems, coordinating steel connections, or developing high-detail interior visualisations of open-plan spaces with exposed structural elements and industrial aesthetics.
