About this asset

This half-round metal gutter profile is a native Revit family designed for creating detailed roof drainage systems in building models. The profile features a classic half-round geometry, specifically engineered for integration with roof edges and fascia boards. It includes a distinct rolled bead edge on the outer lip, providing structural rigidity and a traditional aesthetic finish. The internal curvature is smooth, ensuring efficient water flow and debris clearance. As a standard 2D profile component, it lacks unnecessary geometry, keeping file sizes minimal while maintaining precise line work for section views and construction documentation. The profile is intended to be loaded into a project and swept along roof edges to generate accurate 3D gutter elements.

The download is a 133 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.

To use this component, load the RFA file into your Revit project environment. Once loaded, access the Gutter tool under the Roof tab and duplicate an existing gutter type to assign this specific profile. You can then select the roof edges to apply the sweep. Ensure the insertion point is correctly aligned with the host roof edge or fascia board to avoid manual offsets in your section details or 3D views.

This profile is essential for architects and MEP engineers working on residential or industrial projects requiring accurate roof drainage detailing. It is ideal for construction documentation where precise section profiles are necessary to demonstrate assembly methods to contractors. Professionals typically search for this asset when detailing eaves, fascia systems, or roof edge conditions. It pairs effectively with standard fascia board families and roof edge sweep settings to complete the external building envelope design, ensuring both technical accuracy and visual clarity in project documentation.
