BULLNOSE EDGES AND CORNERS FOR WALLS IN REVIT

HOW TO ACHIEVE BULLNOSE EDGES ON WALLS

We can achieve bullnose edges and corners on walls applying the "Wall Reveal" native Revit tool. So as first step you need to create a new family under the "Profile-Reveal.rft" template as shown here:

NEW FAMILY-PROFILE WALL REVEAL

Now draw a 90º arc segment and close the polygon with 2 straight lines to shape what will eventually be the EXTERNAL side of the wall edge. Imagine that you are going to have a Void which will sweep and cut along the wall edge. Ideally you will assign a dimension parameter for the radius of the arc segment so you can control and customize according to each project. You need to align and lock the geometry and center mark to the reference planes if you want the radius parameter to work. If you don't know what I'm talking about, please take a tutorial on parametric family creation.

DRAW THE PROFILE AND ASSIGN A DIMENSION PARAMETAR (RADIUS)

Next save and load this family into your project. Now use the "Wall / Reveal" tool.

USE THE "WALL / REVEAL" TOOL

Duplicate the existing type and create a new one. Choose your new profile under "Construction / Profile" as shown here:

NEW REVEAL TYPE PROPERTIES

Now you can apply it to the walls' horizontal edges:

But wait, you can also bullnose the vertical edges!!! Just make sure to choose the "Vertical" placement option as shown here:
