User defined families for lattice girder

In IMPACT Revit, it is already possible to use the lattice girders for Double walls and for Form slabs. 

There are situations where users want to use their own lattice girder families in the lattice girder command. We introduce a new feature in IMPACT Revit which makes it possible for the users to work with their own lattice girder families.

When working with user defined families and in order to be able to fill the values when loading a user defined family in the definition, it is important that the lattice girder family created by user contains the following parameters:
