mass concettuale

[johhny89]

Good morning.
My name is alex and I'm a student who has to draw a building for a university exam. I'm pressing that they're at first with revit. I have to design a building with very complex facades (glass facades with different type glasses and different sizes, one of the facades is tilted). I designed the perimeter walls, girdles, floors, stairs and pillars and now I should draw the facades.
1) I thought of creating a new conceptual mass and then insert it into the project and assign the various materials. What do you think? (I also attached the result).
2) when I insert it into the project I have a problem with the units of measurement, it comes to me smaller than 100 times. I know it's a problem of unit measurement but I don't know how to solve it.

thanks for understanding and for possible help.

The only advice I feel about giving you is helping you with some colleagues who know a little more about you. by experience I tell you that, given your premises, these issues are not resolved by asking right and missing on a forum.

1) I thought of creating a new conceptual mass and then insert it into the project and assign the various materials. What do you think? (I also attached the result).

the conceptual mass is not used to make a carved model, but only conceptual as the name says it. it would be better to do this in the project, using normal objects of the edict, walls, windows, etc.

2) when I insert it into the project I have a problem with the units of measurement, it comes to me smaller than 100 times. I know it's a problem of unit measurement but I don't know how to solve it.

probably the units of the family file were in centimeters before composing to model? Unfortunately now and difficult to scale objects. there is no instrument in revit to climb in the 3 dimensions. :

it would be better to start again, in a project file.
