What is a .RFA file?
RFA holds a reusable Revit component, like a door, window or fixture.
- Did you know
- Revit families are the smart building blocks architects drop into a model.
- An RFA is a loadable Revit component such as a window, door or piece of furniture that can be stored in libraries and reused across projects.
- Every RFA is built starting from an RFT template, which supplies the new family’s basic structure and parameters.

- Depth of analysis
- .RFA is an identification-grade format: Analyser recognises it from its bytes and decodes the header metadata it carries, rather than opening it in a full viewer. Formats that do get a full viewer are marked "Full" on the formats page.
- Open a .RFA file
- Drag a .RFA file onto the Analyser home page (or tap to pick one). It is identified entirely in your browser - nothing is uploaded, there is no account, and it works offline once installed.
