Steel Beam to Concrete Wall Connection - Revit Export and ASD difficulti es

What I am trying to do is create a 3d connection of a steel beam to concrete wall. Since that can not be done in Revit I exported to ASD. So I used the SAD Revit Extension I used the "Steel Detailing Link" to get my Revit steel into ASD. The concrete walls did not show up when doing this, so I used the "Formwork Drawing links" which gave me the walls I needed. However I can not figure out how to combine the two to make the connection. Also when I create this connection in ASD, how do I get it back into Revit? How will it appear?
Thanks!

Thanks for your reply. That link does not really help as my question deals with the exporting and importing of the project. That link appears to be the next step. Unfortunately I am not very familiar with ASD and the link posted goes over my head and creates more questions. Thanks again

if you are triying to create a connection of a steel structure to concrete wall based on a exported model from revit you can't export both steel and concrete. The posted link is only to know that concrete walls must be "faked" because ASD steel module does not support concrete walls.

also Revit only has one extension with four connections, if you want to have more you must to obtain/pay for them, to SDS/2 for example.
