■ Standard Component ■ In-place System Families System families are pre-defined within Revit Structure and comprise principle building components such as walls, floors, and roofs. The basic walls system family, for example, has wall types that define interior, exterior, foundation, generic, and partition wall styles. You can duplicate and modify existing system families, but you cannot create new system families. NOTE You can use “Transfer Project Standards” to copy system families from one project to another. The following illustration shows different types within the basic walls family. Standard Component Families Standard component families are loaded by default in project templates, while many more are stored in component libraries. You work with the Family Editor to create and modify components. You can either duplicate and modify an existing component family or create a component family based on a variety of family templates. The following dialog box shows how you can select a specific family template to start your family design project. Family templates are either host-based or standalone. Host-based families have components that require hosts. Standalone families include columns, and beam. Family templates assist you in creating and manipulating component families. Standard component families can exist outside of the project environment and have an .rfa extension. You can load them into projects, transfer them from one project to another, and save them from a project file to your library if needed. 512 | Chapter 16 About Families and the Family Editor
The following illustration shows host-based openings in a wall, and also a standalone pile cap family component. In-place Families In-place families are either model or annotation components in a particular project. You create in-place families only within the current project, so they are useful for objects unique to that project; for example, custom step footing. You have a choice of categories when you create in-place families, and the category that you use determines the appearance and display control of the component within the project. The following illustration shows an in-place step footing. Introduction to Families | 513
