Revit Structure – beyond Buildings net seminar

Just thought i would point you to a free net seminar that we tend to area unit running on the thirty first july wherewe are going to be work the usage and collaboration between Revit Structure 2014 and Civil 3D 2014. during thisspecific seminar we are going to specialise in taking knowledge from Civil 3D to Revit Structure for the creation of a 0.5 through rail overbridge.

AGENDA

Realistic workflows between Autodesk Civil and Structural software system

Workflow Example: A Rail Overbridge

AutoCAD Civil 3D Alignment

Extract the corridor

Import in Revit structure

style of super and sub structures

Workflow advantages in the universe

Choosing the right Autodesk Suite for your discipline supported your project deliverables

Q & A

Tutorial – BIM organizer for AutoCAD Civil 3D 2014 and Revit 2014

One of the many challenges facing cooperative comes is the fortunate coordination of information and after allmaking sure that the coordinates and levels area unit correct in all models and drawings. to form this task a trifleeasier you'll currently use a very simple tool that effectively matches the coordinates from AutoCAD Civil 3D 2014 to Revit 2014. this is achieved through shared coordinates.

This tool is available as a part of a subscription and may be a part of the Civil 3D productivity tools. it is valueconsidering this advancement if your company uses each AutoCAD Civil 3D and Revit or if you're operating with external surveyors that use AutoCAD Civil 3D.

The first step is to launch the Export Shared Reference points from the tool cabinet Tab inside Civil 3D (please notethat you just can need to first install this from the Autodesk subscription centre).

Once you've got done this then you will be prompted for the ORIGIN point and then a point in the positive Y Axis (Quasi-North). now should be some extent along the meant project north. Another point to note is that the Z coordinate (the Level) will be transferred to Revit therefore ensure this is correctly set. of course you'll need toraise the Revit team what they're using for project north.

You should then see the select Units and ensure dialog box. Here you can specify the DWG units and check the Easting and Northing data.

You then save an XML file that holds the above info. this can be emailed to the Revit team or uploaded to a shared location.

That’s the AutoCAD Civil3D process completed. Of course, if the location location changes then you'd just repeatthe method but offer the XML file a revised name.

The Process in Revit 2014

The Revit technician can begin the model before the survey is undertaken and the BIM organizer can update the location, rotation and levels once the tool has been executed in Revit 2014.

The first step is to pick out the Import Shared Coordinates tool from the Add Ins tab (again you will need to ensurethat you just have this put in from the Autodesk Subscription Centre).

You will then be prompted for the Origin point. it's recommended that you just draw a Reference Plane from the Origin purpose Associate in Nursingd to an arbitrary point along the project north to aid snapping.

You then specify the XML file and Revit 2014 can report that the Coordinates were with success shared.

The next step is to set this shared coordinate because the current system. On the Manage Ribbon choose the placement command. On the location tab select the Shared Coordinate and then the create Current button. The Coordination should currently be set.

You can check this by setting the location plan to True North, placing a coordinate at the popping out point andconjointly making sure that the levels area unit set to read the Survey point.

Hope this has been helpful
