Beam |
Creates a 2D BeamSystem with specified profile curves.
Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)

public static BeamSystem Create(
Document document,
IList<Curve> profile,
SketchPlane sketchPlane,
int curveIndexForDirection
)
Parameters
- document Document
- The document in which the new BeamSystem is created.
- profile IList Curve
- The profile of the BeamSystem.
- sketchPlane SketchPlane
- The work-plane for the BeamSystem.
- curveIndexForDirection Int32
- Index of the curve in the profile to be used as direction. '0' means the default direction-to use the first curve in profile. The curve from the profile to be used as direction must be a Line.
Return Value
BeamSystemIf successful, a new BeamSystem object will be returned.

Exception | Condition |
---|---|
ArgumentException | SketchPlane is not valid for BeamSystem creation. -or- The input profile contains at least one helical curve and is not supported for this operation. -or- The profile curves must be in the sketch plane. -or- The curve index must be valid and the curve to be used as direction must be a Line. |
ArgumentNullException | A non-optional argument was null |
ModificationForbiddenException | The document is in failure mode: an operation has failed, and Revit requires the user to either cancel the operation or fix the problem (usually by deleting certain elements). -or- The document is being loaded, or is in the midst of another sensitive process. |
