Importing a model from Revit issues

When importing a model from Revit is there a way to avoid the positioning differences and if not is there an easy way to modify all the beams with different Z values once imported?

Hi @mick-CNF 

 

This is the way the Revit user has modelled the beams, in Revit you can have the system line locked to a level and then offset the physical beam. This is done with the Z offset value. If they create it this way then when importing thats what you get in Advance Steel.

In Revit you can change this value to 0 and instread use the Start and End offset values, this will give the physical and analytical model in the same location.

To change this globally in Revit you can setup a schedule to show only this information and you can actually modify the schedule and it will update the model

Hello, it seems to not be related to this parameter in revit.

i've these problems between  RVT24 & AS24

see below:

Revit:

Revit 2024Revit 2024

 and advance steel 2024:

AS 24AS 24

 

my revit elements are in fabrication form.

 

i did not succeed to get the same Z justification between revit and AS.

no, because in revit model you select Ref line is bottom Z=0, but in advance the Ref Line is in middle section show in your secondary image. so Z is 200. the same when import Revit to Robot.

Hi. If you isolate that beam in Revit and copy to a blank project and purge, you can share it here and we can test it. I have not had any issues like that with the 2024 Revit and Advance steel workflow
