Description
This tool creates an assembly from the selected structural framing element. In addition, all elements (excluding elements with the "MANUFACTURE_COMPONENT" parameter containing either “CONNECTION”, “ERECTION”, or “CIP”) that are within the bounding box of the element are automatically included in the assembly. The assembly is then renamed to match the control mark of the structural framing element and the ASSEMBLY_MARK_NUMBER, ASSEMBLY_CONTROL_NUMBER, WEIGHT_PER_UNIT, CONSTRUCTION_PRODUCT_HOST and BOM_PRODUCT_HOST are updated. If the element is already an assembly, the assembly adds all not currently included elements and reruns the Update Products Host tool to set the CONSTRUCTION_PRODUCT_HOST and BOM_PRODUCT_HOST parameters of all included elements. If the tool is run on an existing assembly, the origin and basis will not be altered.
NOTE: The control mark must be a unique name for an assembly to set its name, otherwise the tool will default the name of the assembly to the Revit default assembly name.
