    This useful tutorial by Revit Pure enhances the ladder family by having an angle parameter: revitpure.com/blog/heroic-ladder.

    Thanks a lot for the clear explanations. You could add another parameter to your Revit family to make the spacing between all of the rungs the same. As your first, last and the middle rungs' spacings are not the same in most of the times? For making the spacing equal you need to put the following formula: the rung offset or spacing can be equal to (total height/(number of rungs+1)) and you can remove the rung number formulas. In your formula you don't have the number of the rungs but you have the total height and rung offset/spacing. In my formula you can first devide the total height to the prefferd amount of spacing between the rungs and then put the result number minus one for the number of the rugs. This gives you a ladder with an equal spacing between the rungs.

    Mate, thank you for this tutorial. Is there any way that this family can also incorporate the count of rungs as you stretch it up? So, to elaborate on my question, is there a way to add the number '1' next to first rung, number '2', next to second rung. . . . . .number '10' next to the tenth rung? Cheers to all !

    Hi, I think it might be doable, I just don't know how from the top of my head :). You might play with the visibility of the numbers in relation to the length, even though this is not the most elegant solution.

    Excellent tutorial, thank you. But, say for example that I want my ladder to be in an angle... how could I make a new parameter with the angle information? Thanks!

    There are several ways to rotate the family. I would do it this way: 1) first have to edit the family and change it to ""Work Plane-Based" and disable "Always Vertical" in the Family Category and Parameters 2) Create angled reference plane in your project 3) select this angled reference plane as a host for the ladder family 4) now when you change the angle of the reference plane, the angle of ladder changes too You can also use adaptive component family as demonstrated in this video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/lZZnr6ekgpiuY8Y.html

    Thanks for the tutorial sir, it's helpful. What happens if we didn't round-up in formula. I tried it but didn't found in which case it will fail.

    Hi Akhil, if we didn't round up, the ladder would have too many rungs (one more than desired) in case we set overall length of the ladder to be multiple of 'rung distance'. For instance if rung distance is set to 300mm and overall height of the ladder 3000mm. Tom

    Hi, you would have to parametrize the ladder further. But this should not be too complicated. You can see how to create simple parametric family in this tutorial: kzread.info/dash/bejne/qGWho5SoesqYgrA.htmlsi=8wXItwnPTjqS4UoE

    Hi, not with the family form the tutorial. You could just rotate it - but you would have to use user-defined plane in the project to place the ladder on this plane.

    That is a corner case. You could solve it with adding another parameter (IF smaller than 300, than don't take that number into account). With this ladder I supposed nobody would want to have it shorter than 300mm :)
