Tagging Beam Systems
You can tag the beam system and place them perpendicular to the beam system.
To tag a beam system
1 Load a beam system tag into the project.
There is a default beam system tag family called Structural Beam System Tag.rfa that installs
with Revit Architecture. The family is located in the following location: Imperial or Metric
Library\Annotations\Structural\Structural Beam System Tag.rfa.
2 On the Drafting menu, click Beam System Tag, or on the Drafting tab of the Design Bar, click
Beam System Tag.
3 On the Type Selector, click the desired beam system tag type.
4 To place the tag automatically, select Auto place on the Options Bar.
5 Place the cursor on a beam system in the view to highlight it.
6 After highlighting the beam system, click to place the tag.
If you selected Auto place, the tag is placed at the center of the beam system.
If you did not select Auto place, move the cursor to the desired location on the beam system,
and click to place it.
NOTE The Structural Beam System Tag.rfa family includes a label that changes the beam spacing in
the beam system. Click on the dimension value to change the beam spacing.
To modify the position of the beam system tag, select the tag, and drag it.
Tagging Beam Systems on Placement
When placing beam systems within an existing grid bay, you can concurrently place tags in three ways.
When working in a plan view, the option bar displays new tools when is selected from
