Template Additions

I know this is pretty boring for a first post, but at least it's fresh.

I added two tags to the template yesterday, one for metal roofs, and one for slabs on grade. The tag for metal roofs reads parameters for the deck thickness, gauge,finish, and deck type. All four of these are project parameters that need to be edited by the user. Start a new revit job and model a floor using the 1-1/2" metal deck. Note that the tag is actually a deck span symbol that can be rotated. Rotating this tag will also rotate the deck flute direction.

The floor tag also works as a deck span symbol. It reads parameters for slab thickness, concrete strength, WWF reinf, subgrade, and slab el. All of these are also project parameters that need to be edited by the user.

Lemme know if these give you any trouble.
