Windows
PHLS Window
A window family object specifically designed for easy manipulation and data entry of the parameters specific to the PHPP.
Height and width parameters are set to ‘Instance’ so that they can be easily adjusted within Revit via the control handles or by direct entry of the dimensions within the properties window, or they can be adjusted within the PHPP and the window size will flex accordingly in Revit when a sync is completed
The frame size parameters can be adjusted to match the values of the particular window type that has been selected in the PHPP.
Reference lines with control handles have been included to simplify nominating the dimensions of reveals, overhangs, and shading objects by snapping them to the relevant objects. You can then use the power of Revit’s locking constraints to ensure the dimension values are automatically updated as design changes are made that affect these dimensions.
Reference lines and labels are also visible in section and elevation views for easy manipulation, and can be turned on and off with a visibility control parameter.
Choose from a fixed or sash frame type and select the opening style symbol.

Doors
PHLS Door
A door family object specifically designed for easy manipulation and data entry of the parameters specific to the PHPP.
Height and width parameters are set to ‘Instance’ so that they can be easily adjusted within Revit via the control handles or direct entry of the dimensions within the properties window, or they can be adjusted within the PHPP and the door size will flex accordingly in Revit when a sync is completed.
The frame size parameters can also be adjusted to match the values of the particular door type that has been selected in the PHPP.
Reference lines with control handles have been included to simplify nominating the dimensions of reveals, overhangs, and shading objects by snapping them to the relevant objects. You can then use the power of Revit’s locking constraints to ensure the dimension values are automatically updated as design changes are made that affect these dimensions.
Reference lines and labels are also visible in section and elevation views for easy manipulation, and can be turned on and off with a visibility control parameter.
Choose left or right hung and inward or outward swinging.
The door leaf will automatically change from a glazed type to a solid type if a U value is specified and the door is to be treated as an ‘Exterior Door’ in the PHPP.
Thermal Bridges
Linear Thermal Bridge
A 3D linear thermal bridge object that can be applied to the BIM to represent the various thermal bridge types.
Select from 3 inbuilt bridge types: Ambient, Floor Slab / Basement Ceiling, and Perimeter.
Bridge types are also colour coded for easy identification.
Trace the bridge object along the relevant area of the BIM and snap the ends of the linear thermal bridge object to accurately represent its length.
You can then use the power of Revit’s locking constraints to ensure the thermal bridge lengths are automatically updated as design changes are made that affect these dimensions.
