Spray Foam Insulation Hatch Pattern For Autocad Average ratng: 9,1/10 3662 votes Does anyone have a.pat file for insulation similar to the 2D insulation component available in Revit? Or if you aren't willing to share the file, maybe share how you achieved it so I can duplicate it?
Does anyone have a.pat file for insulation similar to the 2D insulation component available in Revit? Or if you aren't willing to share the file, maybe share how you achieved it so I can duplicate it? I seem to be limited to the ****** hatch patterns available and none of them are even close to insulation. I found this but I don't see how this works in a cut view, seems like it would get the result I want in plan but this guy has created an extrusion so in cut I'm just going to see a solid piece like I already see.and that's not what I want.
The hatch line weights should be 1/2 the width of the section cuts - esp. The wood grain is too dark right now. 2nd that on rotating the insulation. The scale of the concrete is a bit small/dense, x2 and you're golden. Sep 30, 10 11:22 am. By Bill Fane, David Byrnes AutoCAD users and drafters often use hatching to represent the type of material that makes up an object, such as insulation, metal, or concrete. In other cases, hatching helps emphasize or clarify the extent of a particular element in the drawing.

We are also using fiberglass batts, and the usual insulation linetype for that. We are using a metal panel on part of the exterior, which has mineral wool insulation, and I want to use a hatch pattern that is easily differentiated, and that reads like mineral wool.
Seems to me I 'should' be able to just set a hatch pattern but I have no idea why OOTB revit doesn't include a freaking insulation hatch pattern and only has a 2D component available.this is like the 15th iteration of Revit and they still haven't included this? Do I create a text file in notepad and save it as a *.pat?
Copy and paste the pattern text to Notepad or any other text editor such as PSPad. Trim any leading spaces from each line. Make sure to save it as a.PAT file and not as a.PAT.txt file - which is what Notepad will gleefully give you if you just save with the default.txt file extension that Notepad thinks you need (you don't). Use Save as type:= All Files (*.*) to supply the.PAT extension, otherwise you won't be able to find it while browsing in Revit. In your Revit project, select Manage>Additional Settings>Fill Patterns (to wake up Fill Pattern manager).
Click: • Drafting or Model radio-button (to select either Pattern Type) • New (New Pattern panel appears) • Custom (lower portion changes) • Import (file browser appears, restricted to.PAT files, remember) • Browse to your file and open it • Select the pattern you want to load from the dropdown list • Alter the pattern scale to taste • Alter the pattern name to taste • Click on OK (pattern will be added to the displayed list of patterns) That's it. Redo to load with a different scale or you can use the free Add-In I mentioned earlier to do that inside your project. Hope this helps, Hugh Adamson. Reclaime free raid recovery. Thanks Hugh, I managed to figure out most of this before you replied, but I seem to have hit a roadblock.
It's in inches don't know if this is an issue for importing in a metric project? I can't seem to edit the scale upon importation all the choices to do with scale are greyed out. And I really WANT to try the hatchkit, among other useful plug-ins also but where I work IT have a stranglehold on everything so I can't just download and try it out I need someone from IT to first approve it and blah blah red tape and it usually takes them a month to actually install something I ask for (I waited 3 months for design review to get installed and its part of the CAD deployment package.). No it's worked as you described - kind of.but I assume discrepancies are down to user error on my side.
The tray with the hole in it that comes out of the computer is for holding a Maccas drink cup right? I actually got this mostly to work, I had to put my import scale way down at 0.01 but its more or less worked with one exception.
I've used a component family for insulation, and this has an 'insulation' material applied, which in turn has your hatch pattern applied When I place this element and runs horizontally across the screen (in plan) it works fine. If the element runs vertically up and down the page/screen the hatch does not rotate 90 degrees but rather draws the elliptical line thingo sitting one on top of the other - as opposed to stringing along side by side as they should. I had the same problem appear in section because the piece with a depth of 300mm needs the hatch to turn 90 degrees to hatch how I want but it currently doesn't. Am I missing something or is this just how it is? Maybe I need to use the same hatch turned 90 degrees for section hatch?
Here’s a quick tip on how to locate your AutoCAD Hatch Patterns.
Your hatch standard pattern definitions are located within your acad.pat file. This file is usually located in program files under your program filesautocad-versionsupport folder.
If using AutoCAD LT you may find your Hatch Patterns are located in the UserDataCache folder. This is a hidden folder and cannot be seen without changing your settings.
To see your hidden folders and locate hatch patterns be sure to :
Open The Tools in Windows Explorer
Insulation Hatch Cad
1. Open Explorer window. (Rt Click Start Button – Lower Left and Choose Open Explorer)
2. Click on the Tools (ALT and ALT+T) Menu bar item. (See screenshot below)
3. Click on Folder Options.
