Adding a Property Line

If you want to add a property line, Revit provides you with the tool you need. Of course, this is Revit, so you aren't just adding a dumb line to the model. When you start the Property Line command, Revit will ask you if you want to create the property line either by using bearing distances or by sketching (a sketch can be converted to a bearing table after it has been placed).

To add a property line, follow this procedure:

  1. In the Project Browser, go to the Site floor plan.
  2. In the Massing & Site tab, click the Property Line button, as shown in Figure 18.24.
  3. In the Create Property Line dialog that appears, click the Create By Sketching choice.
  4. Draw a series of lines around the perimeter (see Figure 18.24).
