Double Pane IGU (Insulating Glass Unit) - Revit Detail Component Family

The Double Pane IGU Detail Component is a versatile family that represents glazing in your details. The family allows you to show either single or laminated lites, and you can control the thickness of each lite and space. The length of the pane is controlled with an instances parameter. This family can be used in plan and section.
