Trench Drain for ArchiCAD

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello!

I need a drain for my project...

Carrington's one for Revit is perfect! Is it available for ArchiCAD?

If not, what ArchiCAD object could I use that can be similar? I haven't found any...

Thank you!!!

Create a profile in the Profile Editor for the body and use either the beam or wall tool to extrude. Multiply small beams for the grate. Etc.

I always use a custom profile (as Karl recommended), but I just leave the grate solid too, then assign a material with a slotted texture map. (fewer polygons that way too)
