Structural Connections are disappearing when linked to a Construction model

jessicadance2000 — Fri, 04 Feb 2022 15:53:12 GMT

Hi,

So I am new to the structural side of Revit, but have had to link my structural model to a construction mode, and while viewing the model in 3D, the connections aren't visible. But, when viewing a section, all is as it should be.

Is there a way, through the construction model, to change it so all views display with the connections?

I have attached the screenshots. (1 is a section, the other two are from 3D)

Many Thanks in Advance

Are you sure they are actual Structural Steel Connection and not 2D detail components? Tab on a 'connection' in the section view until it is highlighted and look at properties.

in your 3D type VG and check these options.

What to do if these options are ticked and still can not see the components?

Are you ensuring that you are using the Fine Level of Detail in the View as Connection only show with this set?

Alternatively you can Override the View Display Settings in the Link?

Go to your 3D view, in V/G open ALL model categories (not just Structural), go to Worksets and open ALL worksets, go to Filters list and check if some filter is hiding your connection elements. Go to Properties Palette of this 3D view, set Phase to last phase (New Construction maybe) you have in the project, set Phase Filter to Show All. Also activate Reveal Hidden Elements from the status bar.

If it doesn't work, go to the section view and select the connection, then go to Properties Palette and check all the properties there carefully.
