There is a new feature in IMPACT for Revit, which allows the user to create and save Barmesh into IMPACT database from the Draw Bended Mesh command. 

In order to create and save Barmesh into IMPACT database, one needs to activate the checkbox 'Barmesh' from Draw Bended Mesh command.

In the next example, we will create, save and draw a Barmesh via Draw Bended Mesh command. 

We are starting with defining the measurements of a Shape Code in Draw Bended Mesh command.

In the next step, we are selecting the mesh definition. If there is no mesh definition, one can create/import one by pressing the three dots from Draw Bended Mesh dialogue window.
