Andersen Casing Craftsman Back Band is a Revit profile family designed for precise architectural detailing of traditional window trims. This profile family represents a classic Craftsman-style back band, intended for use as a decorative trim overlay on window or door casings. The geometry is defined by a clean, stepped section, featuring a taller primary vertical face that transitions into a wider, squared-off base. This profile is designed for extrusion or sweeping along paths within the Revit environment to create realistic trim details. The simple, geometric lines are characteristic of traditional American architectural millwork, providing a substantial, structured appearance that frames openings effectively while maintaining a clean, minimalist aesthetic suitable for period-inspired or transitional residential interiors.
The download is a 61 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, load this RFA file into your project template as a profile family. It is typically applied by creating a sweep along the perimeter of your window or door casing families. Ensure the profile is oriented correctly within the sweep editor to align with your model's geometry. You can assign specific wood material parameters to the sweep to ensure accurate scheduling and visual representation in rendered sections or elevations throughout the design development phase.
