Place hangers in Revit

February 2025

❝ Blows my mind just thinking about the number of hangers in my building. ❞

💤 I found that placing hangers in Revit could be super boring and repetitive.

So, I made a small Revit tool that creates hangers in networks of pipes, HVAC or cable trays.

Just my (biased) take, I like that it detects connections, pipes at different heights and slope.

I used it and it created 428 hangers in around 30 seconds.

📌 If you want to watch the video:

PS: This small tool is in Nonicatab pro.

💻 Coding tip: used element.connectormanager.connectors.getenumerator() to detect connected items and populate hangers across the network.
