WCS/UCS Rotation

[Anonymous]

We are coordinating heavily with our site/civil team on a new Educational/Industrial buiding. We would like to be able to xref back and forth between MEP 2016 and Civil 3D 2016 to see, address, and adjust any site conflicts. Does anyone have a good solution to ensuring that a building can be drawn at a perfectly square 90 degree angle in MEP, but when xreffed into Civil it is rotated the correct angle? We have addressed any geolocation issues, now we just need to ensure when the building is xreffed into Civil it is at the correct orientation angle. See attached Screen Shots to see what we are trying to do. Thanks all!

Hi,

It's easy, use the user coordinate system - UCS

1. create a custom template with UCS
2. create a construct for your building using this template
3. assign as the current UCS B1

PS

Use Project Manager...
