Opening Robot .rtd files in Revit 2015

[kbigelow]

Can I open Robot .rtd files directly in Revit 2015? If not, is there a process or tool that will allow me to do it? Thanks!

Unfortunately this is not possible. But you can export *.rtd model to *.rvt:

1. Open *.rtd model in Robot
2. Create new Revit file
3. Go to Analyze tab, then Link with Robot Structural Analysis - Update model

I don't have the Robot software, just the .rtd files. Thanks

Revit-Robot link use intermediate file *.smxx format to exchange data.

Ask Robot and rtd file owner to export the file in smxx format.

Install the link toolkit on your Revit

And open smxx file in Revit.
