Split Structure

Automate structural element splitting in Revit.

Automate structural element splitting in Revit

The Challenge 

During the conceptual and early design stages, Revit models often contain walls, columns, beams, and floors that extend across multiple storeys or span several grid intersections. While this approach is ideal for rapid model development, these elements typically need to be split as the design progresses. 

On medium and large projects, manually splitting walls, columns and framing can consume several hours per revision cycle, introducing inconsistencies and reducing valuable modelling time. 

The Solution 

Split Structure is a Revit add-in that automates element splitting in seconds. Select your elements, choose your levels or intersection points, and click Split. The add-in handles the rest, preserving family types, data, level constraints, and offsets throughout. 

Key features

Split Walls and Columns

Split multi-storey walls and structural columns at any combination of project levels. Choose your target levels from a visual list and apply with a single click.

Split Floors

Divide floor slabs along selected grid lines or named reference planes into separate regions, ideal for phasing, RC Detailing, structural analysis export, and coordination.

Split Beams at Columns

Automatically split structural framing at every column centreline intersection. Works across the whole model or on a user-defined selection of beams and columns.

Why choose Split Structure

Save hours per model

What takes an hour manually takes seconds. Free your technicians for higher-value work. Model Quality You Can Trust.

Symbols are preserved automatically

Level constraints, base/top offsets, and family symbols are preserved automatically, no rework. Works on Your Whole Model or a Selection. Process every element at once or be surgical. Your choice.

Compatibility 

Compatible with Autodesk Revit 2024 - 2026. Supports steel, timber. concrete, and composite structural families. Works with both structural and architectural column categories.
