Floor Catalog

BKJ Automation

Browse 68 embedded floor assemblies, customize layer thicknesses and materials, add any floor type to your Autodesk® Revit® project in seconds, and generate professional drafting views automatically.

$11.99/month

Floor Catalog by BKJ Automation gives structural and architectural teams instant access to a comprehensive library of 68 real-world floor assemblies — directly inside Autodesk® Revit®. Stop building floor types from scratch every project. Simply browse, customize, and add.

Key Features:

- 68 Embedded Floor Assemblies

Covers 21 categories including Tile, Carpet, Wood, Concrete, Foundation, Exterior, Raised Access, Sports, Specialty, Resilient, Healthcare, Industrial, Rooftop/Plaza, Acoustic, Below Grade, Raised Wood, Stair/Landing, Wet Area, Historic/Restoration, Lightweight/Prefab, and Commercial. Every type includes real construction layer stacks with accurate thicknesses.

- Live Layer Editor

Edit material names, thicknesses, and functions directly in a DataGrid before adding to your project. The cross-section preview and R-value update in real time as you type.

- Add to Project

Creates a fully structured FloorType with a proper CompoundStructure — finish, substrate, structural, insulation, and membrane layers in the correct Revit order — and places a 5x5 sample floor in your model. Click to place at any point, or auto-place in a row.

- Batch Add

Select multiple floor types at once and add them all in a single operation. Perfect for setting up a project template in minutes.

- Automatic Drafting Views

Generate professional section detail views for any floor assembly — complete with hatched filled regions, Revit dimension strings, material call-outs with leaders, R-value annotations, ASHRAE 90.1 notes, and IBC references.

- Batch Drafting

Create detail views for every selected floor type in a single click.

- Place on Sheet

Choose any sheet in your project and place the floor detail viewport automatically. Smart row-aware layout prevents overlaps.

- Save Custom Types

Edit any built-in assembly and save it as a custom type. Custom types persist between sessions and appear alongside the built-in catalog.

- Floor Comparison

Open a side-by-side panel to compare any two floor types — thickness delta, R-value delta, ASHRAE notes, and layer count with green/red color coding.

- Replace Floor

Select existing floors in your model and replace their type with any catalog assembly — all in one transaction.

- Export PDF Schedule

Print a formatted floor assembly schedule to any PDF driver with full layer table, totals row, R-value summary, and code notes.

- Copy Schedule to Clipboard

Copy a formatted text schedule for pasting into specs, emails, or Excel.

- Workshare Support

Automatically creates and assigns a BKJ_Floors workset in workshared models.

- R-Value Calculator

Approximate thermal resistance for every assembly using ASHRAE Handbook material values — updated live as you edit layers.

- Revit 2023 to 2027 Compatible

A single DLL works across all five supported versions with no separate installs required.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

System Requirements:

- Autodesk Revit 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026, or 2027 (64-bit)

- Windows 10 or Windows 11 (64-bit)

- .NET Framework 4.8 or higher

- Internet connection required for subscription validation on first use

Subscription Notes:

Floor Catalog uses the Autodesk Entitlement API to verify an active subscription. An Autodesk account and active subscription are required to use the tool. The tool will prompt users without a valid subscription to visit the App Store to purchase access. Network errors fail open — users are not blocked if the entitlement server is temporarily unreachable.

R-Value Disclaimer:

All R-values shown are approximations based on ASHRAE Handbook of Fundamentals material data. They are provided for design reference only and should not be used as the sole basis for energy compliance calculations. Verify with project-specific material data sheets.

Code Notes:

ASHRAE 90.1 minimums and IBC slab thickness notes are included for reference only. Applicability depends on project location, building type, and the edition of the code adopted by the local jurisdiction.

About BKJ Automation:

BKJ Automation develops productivity tools for Revit that streamline repetitive modeling and documentation tasks for architecture, engineering, and construction teams.

- In projects with no floor types in the template, the first Add to Project action may take slightly longer as Revit builds the initial CompoundStructure. Subsequent additions are instant.

- Drafting view dimensions are placed using Revit detail line witness references. In rare cases on complex project templates, dimension strings may fall back to text-based annotations. All thickness values are still shown correctly.

- On first launch after installation, Revit may display a security warning asking you to confirm loading the add-in. Select Always Load to prevent this on future launches.

- Floor tagging after placement requires a floor tag family to be loaded in the project. If none is found, a text note label is placed instead — this is by design and does not affect the floor type itself.
