Possibility to define default values for support length

To make the design process faster, IMPACT for Revit provides a new feature that allow the users to define the default values for support length for left and right side of the slabs. This feature applies for Hollow Core, Form slab and Solid Slab. 

To define the default values for support length, one needs to open the "Slabs" tab in the Project Properties from Project Manager.

There is also possibility to change the default values for left and right side of the slab when drawing the slab. Also, there is possibility to change the support length value for the rest of the sides when drawing the slab. To change the support length values, user needs to access the Support length/Endcap option and select the desired edge, type the value and apply the changes.
